And lack of neural plasticity
And power leakage
And overheating
And no self repair
First and last one are the most pertinent here, but there is probably more I can't think of of the top of my head
- chongli 9y agoAnother one that annoys me: memory is on the wrong end of the bus! The brain would be terrible at inference if all the memories were stored in the ass. Instead, the brain has the correct design: keep all the data where the processing happens and stick IO out on the bus.
- Houshalter 9y agoThat's a limitation of general purpose computers, not silicon itself. People do build ASICs with memory stored near where it is needed.
- Sharlin 9y agoNeural plasticity is just an artifact of the brain not making a distinction between software and hardware. Any general-purpose digital computer has infinite "plasticity", being able to execute any program that can exist (modulo memory limitations).
- CuriouslyC 9y agoBut computers can't build themselves, nor can they repair themselves.
- the8472 9y agoneither can cars, but that doesn't stop cars from outperforming humans by some carefully chosen success criteria. Nobody is going to measure silicon chips by their ability to self-replicate without external facilities. Your typical doomsday AI could just order more compute substrate from TSMC to take over the world. Which is in fact more or less what happens in TFA.
