Daniel Schmachtenberger: “Artificial Intelligence and The Superorganism” | The Great Simplification

Posted by in categories: existential risks, health, robotics/AI

On this episode, Daniel Schmachtenberger returns to discuss a surprisingly overlooked risk to our global systems and planetary stability: artificial intelligence. Through a systems perspective, Daniel and Nate piece together the biophysical history that has led humans to this point, heading towards (and beyond) numerous planetary boundaries and facing geopolitical risks all with existential consequences. How does artificial intelligence, not only add to these risks, but accelerate the entire dynamic of the metacrisis? What is the role of intelligence vs wisdom on our current global pathway, and can we change course? Does artificial intelligence have a role to play in creating a more stable system or will it be the tipping point that drives our current one out of control?

A.I. Could Solve Some of Humanity’s Hardest Problems. It Already Has

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, genetics, robotics/AI

Since the release of ChatGPT, huge amounts of attention and funding have been directed toward chatbots. These A.I. systems are trained on copious amounts of human-generated data and designed to predict the next word in a given sentence. They are hilarious and eerie and at times dangerous.

But what if, instead of building A.I. systems that mimic humans, we built those systems to solve some of the most vexing problems facing humanity?

Quantum computing could give AI the rocket fuel to be transformative

Posted by in categories: quantum physics, robotics/AI

Quantum computing could give us machines massively more powerful than today’s, but we still have a long way to go, say leaders in the field.

The tech story of the century so far has been the mainstream arrival of generative artificial intelligence, which drives the uncanny capabilities of systems such as ChatGPT, and is fast being absorbed into our everyday lives.

Whether to mimic human creativity, double as empathetic counsellor or eliminate clerical drudgery, generative AI has delivered an unprecedented surge in excitement for its potential benefits.

This start-up wants to make humanoid robots with ChatGPT-like brains

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

The Shanghai-based company plans to begin mass production of its GR-1 robot by end of 2023 and deliver thousands of units next yearFourier hopes to collaborate with major AI companies to work on the ‘brain’ of its bipedal robot.

When Fourier Intelligence unveiled its lanky, jet-black humanoid robot GR-1 at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) in Shanghai in July, it instantly stole the show.

While the global technology community has been fixated on artificial intelligence (AI) software since the launch of OpenAI’s ChatGPT in November, the Chinese-made GR-1 – said to be capable of walking on two legs at a speed of 5km an hour while carrying a 50kg load – reminded people of the… More.
