I want to see an AI that can improve itself by developing new algorithms for arbitrary tasks. I wonder how far off we are from that now?

- SilasX 11y agoYou know, if you're at the point where you can give a human-readable spec of the problem and the AI can make a passable attempt at it, that's basically the Turing Test -- hence why I think it deserves its status as holy grail. Something that passes would really give the impression of "there's a ghost inside here".
- Natsu 11y agoRather than a ghost, I wonder if we'll ever have the average person looking at brains and thinking "there's a program inside here." And then to reverse it, imagine that the world really is some kind of massive simulation... and that there are backups of the save()-ed :)
- ludamad 11y agoThe problem is that fundamentally all our AI techniques are heavily data-driven. It's not clear what sort of data to feed in to represent good/bad algorithm design
