Aspiring to merely a human clone is a really sad goal in my opinion. Machiens already outshines us on so many tasks, and our lives are much better for it.

- nv-vn 10y agoAgreed, but the AI industry is mostly built on the hype that computers will some day be at the mental capacity of a human. I think there's a lot of merit in what's been developed (image processing, language processing, handwriting and voice recognition, etc. are all pretty awesome), but at the end of the day we're no closer to the Promised Land of general intelligence. At the moment, it looks to me like the AI industry is growing much faster than the knowledge/technical developments in said field, which is quite simply a waste of manpower that could probably be better applied in other fields.
