Why? The idea that human intelligence also "fake" is just a convenient excuse for the lack of any real progress in AI. We hear the same thing at the tail end of every overblown AI hype cycle. Well, gee, maybe humans aren't that smart anyway!
- pas 7y agoWhy are we equating brute force with fake? The human mind has many faculties, and the brain has correspondingly many functionally different elements. Plus years of brute force learning. Compared to GPT2, AlphaZero and whatever we are waay more complex and had a lot more training done. Probably the super secret sauce is in the hyperparameters that determine how to cobble all those functional components together to get something more than the simple sum of them. (But they are also learned and brute forced through evolution.) AI needs better brains. (So R&D can proceed faster. We can test new ideas cheaper, we can optimize algorithms, so they'll learn and perform better.)
