Could living things that evolved from metals be clunking about somewhere in the universe? Perhaps. In a lab in Glasgow, UK, one man is intent on proving that metal-based life is possible.
He has managed to build cell-like bubbles from giant metal-containing molecules and has given them some life-like properties. He now hopes to induce them to evolve into fully inorganic self-replicating entities.
I believe if superintelligence can be digitized into computer code then essentially a microchip could send electrical impulses to oneâs brain noninvasive like the microchip that heals from Ohio state and then superintelligence could be attained and the biological wetware could be easily acquire the biological singularity. Much like the moto that Apple has all things digital a new superintelligence attribute could uploaded and the human could evolve or gene edit from a smartphone also the impulse could be non invasive like low level electrical impulse sending data to the brain using existing hardware. We could be as advanced as any exterrestial civilization in a couple keystrokes using existing hardware.
Popular expectations for the future are helplessly colored by present trends. The assumption is always that whateverâs going on now can be safely extrapolated into the future along a linear (or, per Kurzweil, logarithmic) curve. So it was that during the space race, baby boomers took for granted that weâd have fully colonized the solar system by the year 2000.
Elon Musk has warned humanity many times about the dangers of superhuman AI. He thinks the advent of digital superintelligence will bring about profound changes to human civilization. Elon Musk thinks the technological singularity could either be super beneficial or it could be terrible for our society. Elon said that no one knows for sure the impact superhuman AI will have on our world but that one thing is for certain: We will not be able to control it. He thinks artificial intelligence will be used as a weapon and warns that the lack of AI regulation could mean itâs already too late for humanity.
No other life form on our planet has infiltrated every environment as successfully as the minuscule single cells of bacteria. Amongst their manyroles in life on Earth, it turns out some of these microbes are also experts at purifying precious metals.
An international team of researchers has figured out how one metal-gobbling bacterium, Cupriavidus metallidurans, manages to ingest toxic metallic compounds and still thrive, producing tiny gold nuggets as a side-effect.
In this podcast, I have invited Daniel Jue, one of the youngest Entrepreneurs of the field of AGI. Daniel is an Independent Artificial General Intelligence researcher at Cognami in the US. He has worked supporting the US Department of Defense, including Data Fusion and analytic development for DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, whose mission is to prevent technological surprise by potential adversaries. In addition he worked with scientists and engineers at IronNet CyberSecurity, a startup with DARPA and NSA heritage who have recently gone public. In March of 2,021 Daniel took on full time AGI research, drawing upon the fields of Computer Science, Neuroscience, Philosophy and Psychology. Some of his major influences have been Jacques Pitratâs CAIA (An Artificial AI Scientist) project, Jean Piagetâs childhood development theories and Spiking Neural Networks. He sees a generalizable substrate at the basis for AGI, where engineers design the âphysicsâ in which intelligent behavior could emerge.
Hey itâs Han from WrySci HX talking about a really interesting concept â the worldâs first biological gaming console that uses nanopore technology to detect molecules, and turn these readouts into games! Itâs called the Demonpore 64! More below âââ
The results showed that calves performed at a similar level to children when learning to potty-train, and did better than very young children.
If you can potty-train a child, you can potty-train a cow. At least, that was the theory a group of researchers in Germany decided to test, in a bid to find a solution to the environmental damage caused by livestock waste.
âItâs usually assumed that cattle are not capable of controlling defecation or urination,â said Jan Langbein, co-author of a study published Monday in the journal Current Biology.
The book The Illusion of Knowledge, by Harold Katcher, was launched on September 4th 2021 at Book Passage Ferry Building, San Francisco/CA. The book was published by NTZ, a publisher specialized on the rejuvenation field.
