Whats out there: beyond earth

'Tiger got to hunt, bird got to fly;
Man got to sit and wonder "Why, why, why?"
Tiger got to sleep, bird got to land;
Man got to tell himself he understand.'

- Kurt Vonnegut, Cat's Cradle

That good, though:

To travel hopefully is a better thing than to arrive. Robert Louis Stevenson

 

[Galu]

Only a Scot like RLS could be so perceptive!

Here's another quote from Kurt Vonnegut:

"Here we are, trapped in the amber of the moment. There is no why."

And Another:

"To be is to do - Socrates

To do is to be - Sartre

Do be do be do - Sinatra"

reverse engineering our physical world

Autonomous vehicle suffers a puncture, it has milliseconds to reach a decision, it quickly simulates possible scenarios using its on board physics engine and chooses the action of least cost

Autonomous vehicle suffers a mechanical failure, it has milliseconds to reach a decision, it quickly simulates possible scenarios using its on board physics engine and chooses the action of least cost

Autonomous vehicle encounters a riot in the streets of Lagos,Beijing,etc, it has milliseconds to reach a decision, it quickly simulates possible scenarios using its on board physics engine and chooses the action of least cost

Like humans do?

riding bicycle.

car coming to stop on right adjoining road

Oops! Car not stop!

Car entering My Lane at shallow angle, impact imminent!

RipRap in ditch to right- could be killed (high cost).

Cut to edge of road and break. May slide under vehicle - could be killed(high cost).

Hit car head on - could be killed(high cost).

Cut left and peddle like H3LL - could clear car and be safe(low cost).

Oops, too slow to react...... (high cost)

I dunno if this adheres to the rules of Haiku strictly enough:

Disc brakes
Hydraulic power
Immediate stop

I've used an 'expert system' code generator for many years. This is a commercial product I'm sharing but have no connection to it.

Essentially, you can implement AI with only a few lines of C.
AI is very simple and works great even if combined with a classic control system. ie a crisp setpoint.

The resultant code is fast and compact. Fits easilly in tiny embedded controllers.

I'm sharing this info because many people are in awe of so-called AI but it is really very simple.

Apparent Intelligence 🙂

 

[KaffiMann]

I am willing to pay a bit of money to get a powerful self-learning AI that can work even without internet connection. It must be able to :
1. Learn language, both written and speak/listen.
2. Process, compile and provide summaries of political and scientific papers/documents.
3. Learn how to write custom software that can be used for other things.
4. Circuit/PCB and also Mechanical CAD design after my own input/specification.

Edit:
5. Be able to engage people in conversation.
6. Sing

 

[jfetter]

Of course its all doable. But you do not have enough money.

 

[KaffiMann]

That is correct, but I can wait a little bit.

Kaffi - I’d populate at least two more to that list - in any order:
7) avoid hubris
8) recognize sarcasm

architecture of our GPU model

here were keeping the architecture of the process simple and do not define compute or progress

 

[OnAudio]

a possible state of the simulation

here we are able to map progress to money however this will be short lived since on running the oracle() function call we see a possible state of the simulation where money no longer exists at that time we shall re evaluate what to map progress to
