AI doesn't imply Singularity. Self-improving AI implies Singularity. It's totally possible to have e.g. a neuromorphic AI of roughly human intelligence that doesn't cause an intelligence explosion.
- alanh 16y agoTechnically, AI used as a tool by humans to develop better AI may not be considered self-improving AI, but would have possibly the same effect, would it not? Self-improving AI might be an implied step after AI as tool, though.
- Qz 16y agoI don't see how. The only thing that prevents human intelligence explosion is limited intake rate of data (and possibly hardware, of which an AI's would presumably be more reliable).
- endtime 16y agoA neuromorphic AI could be constructed without understanding how the brain actually works. You could run that faster, but even with a billion years subjective you still might not be able to come up with ways to improve your own mind if you aren't smart enough in the first place. Of course, the intelligence threshold for self-improvement is lower if your mind is simpler...but the clearest (and fastest?) route to something you could reasonably call AGI may be dumbly reimplementing a human brain.
