RE: If We're in a Simulation, Could Studying Morality and A.I. Improve Your Life?

in #simulation6 years ago

Great post. With the advent of deep learning, the artificial intelligence is going to get more mature. However a system’s intelligence vs its morality standards is always a tricky graph to plot.

Sort:  

“Tricky” indeed. I wonder sometimes if an AI will teach us morality since they can process data so much better than we can and they may understand human well being in a quantified way we have trouble with.

AI may adopt moral values of humans, yes, but what makes you think they will be able to teach us? And even if they could, we humans don’t even learn from eachother, learning from AIs? I don’t think so :p

But you have a valid point. We already know that an AI has already tried to create its own language that was far more complex than anything a human has ever developed. A time is near when they will also be able to understand human emotions and human values better than humans.

Stuff like neural lace will probably be the way forward. Direct brain to computer interfaces. We will probably become synthetic at some point.

With deep learning, yes we can achieve that. Direct brain to computer interface is totally possible.
But in a broader perspective, i am guessing that before we ever get to morality part, we will use AI as a weapon in defence industry.
Remember that the nuclear weapons did not get any moral / ethical concerns until we had actually used them in war without having any such concerns.

I can say this absolute confidence because i work in defense industry and currently, we are looking to weaponize the AI.
So all we can do is hope that with the dawn of AI, our lives become more stable, peaceful and not otherwise.
