I plan to join the Air Force as an officer, and once I do my four years join Lockheed Martin of some other government contractor.

The Flood / How often do you get sick?« on: August 26, 2015, 01:33:29 PM »
Ever since I started keeping track I noticed I get sick twice a year. Once in the earlier part of the year and then in August, which is a bitch because August is a busy month for me. I probably should have washed my hands after going to the gym, it was packed as fuck. Anyway what about you?

The Flood / Re: We'll probably experience the technological singularity.« on: August 25, 2015, 08:24:03 PM »Moore's Law isn't really about technological progress, it's about the efficiency of components. Eventually (and soon) we'll reach a point where we can't make processors any smaller; that point isn't singularity.They're not saying Moore's law is approaching the moment of singularity, they're just using it to help model a prediction for the arrival of the singularity. And as far as I know singularity just applies to an AGI. But I agree that improvements in biomedical engineering and the other fields relating to it will come before strong AI. 545

The Flood / Re: We'll probably experience the technological singularity.« on: August 25, 2015, 04:19:51 PM »True,true. However these questions deal more with the engineering as opposed to the science. Although given this situation not enough research has been done in regards to AI so id say it's a bit of both. But look at the predictions for computer technology, space technology, flight, optics, etc. There's was once a time when the Wright Bros said we would never fly across the Atlantic. When predicting the state of technology sometimes people are right and sometimes they're wrong, but if you want to model technological progress (which I know isn't necessarily foolproof) we see it's an exponential curve.scientists 50 years ago were also optimistic we would have flying cars by now. Look how that turned out. If you're going to study in the field of science you need to be a realist, not an optimist.no credible expert opinion will predict the technological singularity happening in 2040 or anywhere near that. Optimism has no place in science.Yet you still argue against expert opinion and analysis? Something ain't right then.>haven't researched the topicYou can't call it incorrect information when you've literally put no effort into disputing their claims or even researching the topic.

The Flood / Re: We'll probably experience the technological singularity.« on: August 25, 2015, 12:18:48 AM »That's not what Moore's Law is. It's the amount of transistors in a single chip that doubles every two years, and yes as we get below 7nm we've run into trouble with just how small we can make it because as dies get smaller the failure rate goes way up.It's essentially the same concept. Doubling of transistors would result in improved computational power. Also they've already delved into molecular computing and got a quantum computer to calculate 3*5. Eventually conventional electronics and circutry will be obsolete. 556

The Flood / Re: We'll probably experience the technological singularity.« on: August 24, 2015, 08:04:23 PM »I think most people question the morality and implications of a strong AI. Intelligence and sentience that could exceed a humans is incomprehensible and has unknown consequences, but it will no doubt have some revolutionary applications. But we have to address that it's not a matter of if it'll happen, but when.Everyone thinks the development of an AGI is all flowers and rainbows but that could potentially be the ends of us. No one really knows how an AI that is intelligent beyond our capabilities is going to react to humanity, who would be just a bacteria to them. I believe most movies are accurate on that portrayal of AGIs and they'll most likely wipe us out or fuck off because of a lack of interest in us. I don't see a healthy stable relationship between humans and AGIs.Moore's law will be broken soon anyway so it doesn't matter. The whole technological singularity thing is pretty much bullshit.All I can really say is we'll see. I find it a little optimistic, but think about the technology at the time you were maybe 8 or 10, then compare it to now. Once they crack quantum computing it might be a wrap. And to address them wiping us out, I'll just look at it from a logical perspective. A non biological intelligence with the ability to improve itself will probably figure out it has some superior qualities. But who knows. 560

Some of yall probably know this, but anyway using the concept of Moore's law which states computer technology doubles every 2 years, people have calculated that given the average estimates, we'll have reached the singularity by 2040. Unless you die by some accident or disease, you'll probably be around then. Thoughts?

It's a pretty good show. I haven't been disappointed with an episode so far. It's the perfect combination of comedy, cleverness, creativity, and adventure. They can basically do anything they want with the show since it revolves around the multiverse.
