Quote:Do you think humanity will ever produce artificial general intelligence? Do you think such an intelligence would be able to advance at an unimaginable rate, past a certain point? Would it solve all of our problems? Would it transform our world, as we know it, forever? Or would it be the end of us?
It would surprise me if I didn't see -at least- the beginnings of AI in my own lifetime. It would be able to advance faster than biological intelligence did, but there's no real garauntee as to the rate beyond saying that it would be -capable- of advancing quicker than biologically gated systems. On to the last bits, about solving all of our problems, transforming our worlds, endings us and such...... Insomuch as it would be a world with AI in it, sure, the world would be changed, but...are we expecting AI to do what our current intelligence has not on any of those other counts? Why?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
