AGI

Intuition & Mathematical Introduction to Reinforcement Learning — Part 1 Reinforcement Learning is one of the most avid research topics in the community. A lot of big companies , universites are involved in the research and a lot of cool papers and applications are coming out of it. …

This is the third and final post in my “Sentient AI” series, inspired by Google engineer Blake Lemoine’s claim that an AI has become sentient in his estimation. In my first post in the series, I gave an overview of the claim made by Lemoine, and provided a primer for…

Как я уже ранее заявлял неоднократно, AGI, в отличие от AI, оперирует смыслами. И именно это отличает его от AI. Любые успешные реализации AI (игра в шахматы, беспилотное вождение, распознавание лиц и т.д.) смыслами обрабатываемых объектов никак не оперируют и смысл не распознают. Но им это и не нужно. …

Modern neural networks have reached significant results in various fields — from the classification and generation of images and texts to the best player in Go and predicting the 3D structure of proteins. And at the heart of all these systems is a simple principle of learning neural networks described…

More stepping stones of Artificial Intelligence — In the last issue I have addressed three “stepping stones” laid on the quest to Artificial Intelligence. Neural networks as the centrepiece of connectionism have been proved as powerful tools to solve cognition problems in vision and languages. I also approached intelligence before language, why it is equally important and…

In my last post, I provided a plain language primer for making sense of the recent developments in Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). In that post, I covered the recent pronouncement by Google engineer Blake Lemoine that a chatbot called LaMDA has become “sentient” in his estimation. I also went over…

This is my first publication here on Medium, so bear with me. I have followed the recent debate about Lamda with great interest, and here is my view. The following is just my philosophical speculations and should be taken with a grain of salt. The short story is that Google…

Since the new wave of artificial intelligence rose to prominence for practical use (think from the early days of Google search), a number of centre-left and centrist academics have looked to critique and even take on the tech industry. …
