This is very exciting! One possibility that is, I think, covered up by all the hype around "AI works like our brains" (which I disagree with) is that: our brains are too complex for us to understand and ML may allow us to build more capable interfaces that we still don't understand - but which are easier to understand than the brain. It's an extremely promising new avenue for incremental progress.
- carlmr 3y ago>"AI works like our brains" (which I disagree with) While AI works like our brains is patently false it might just be analogous enough to not matter in the end if the details are the same to get similar emergent behavior.
- cookieperson 3y agoMost applications like these don't require "emergent behavior" at all really... It's basically domain mapping from data. Super cool, but it's not like these models are all of a sudden forming personalities or something...

- ElfinTrousers 3y ago"AI works like our brains" is indeed generally not so, but CNNs do work like the visual cortex, somewhat--it's where they got the idea for them in the first place.
