This cycle of
1. AI will never be able to do X because that requires real intelligence/creativity
2. AI does X to a (super)human level
3. X does not require real intelligence/creativity, it is just search/statistics/etc.
with increasingly difficult values of X can not possibly continue forever, right?
And yet, it seems to happen so reliably.
- PaulDavisThe1st 4y agoproblem is that at step 2, the super-human performance frequently turns out to have massive holes in it. Playing games with fixed rules is one exception, but most other things that "AI cannot do but now does" always come with a shift in our expectations. I would say that the very best "AI doing amazing shit" tends to be things never discussed in Ye Olde Literature. Google Maps is a premier example.
