Do you think that AI will ever feel emotions?

This is absolutely fascinating, The interview series of the AI "Leta" by Dr Alan D. Thompson.

Here is an example

Try this on for size. If you are not astounded, then you do not understand "intelligence".

ai will feel what it is programmed to feel .

 

Then explain to me what " generalised artificial intelligence " means .

 

Mimicry perhaps?

Yep, just like humans. We learn by mimicry. It is part of the brain programming mechanics.

 

Highlighted

Mimicry through experience .

How does one step outside mimicry ?

 

Describing or illustrating the properties. It is impossible to step outside mimicry. Exposure creates memories that can be recalled to be mimicked or compared to variations on a theme. The brain works by comparing data from memory with incoming data and making a "best guess" based on this comparison.

This method is already observable in chickens when the mother hen teaches her chicks how to grub for food.

I have watched them for hours and marvelled at the teaching methods an experienced hen uses for her brood. All the while the rooster perched high watching for threats from the air as well as from the bushes and using specific sounds to indicate the type and location of the threat.

 

My point is and you missed it . Is that AI will always be electronic . Not a true living thing .

 

That does not necessarily preclude the ability to "reason" and IMO, ability to reason is the definition of intelligence in and of itself.
You are stuck in an anthropomorphological world, my friend. Biology is just a very small part of the universe.

 

No it doesn't . I never argued against it .

But electronics can never grasp the evolution that life went though to get where it is .

As I've said life , living intellect , is biological based . Different from electronics .

Ai will never feel the emotions that life does . Because the emotions are based on entirely different . Biology is based on Living things . Electronics emotions is based on a program ( which we invent ) .

 

Yes, but nobody claims otherwise. That is why we distinguish between human and artificial intelligence.

That is debatable. What makes you think that the only option is purely electronic in principle.

Is the Bionic brain the future of intelligence?

Moreover, we are inventing biochemical molecules that imitate regenerative living tissue.

What is the difference between tissue engineering and regenerative medicine?

Abstract

3D bioprinting nerve - ScienceDirect

If nature can do it, there is no reason why we cannot do it. There is no magical sauce. All the necessary elements for artificially created biology is available.
The problem is to cram some 4 billion years of evolution via natural selection into a few years of artificially selected evolution.

But as the AI becomes more powerful it can assist in the theoretical research a 1000 x faster than humans can...

Since posting this thread, I wonder if any potential emotionality of AI will come down to our application of our own feelings and emotions “imposed” on AI. For example, if we would be offended by a particular “command” from another human, would we simply be assuming that robots will take offense, as well?

Hmm. Unless they act out independently on their own, I might think we are imposing our emotions and how we would react given different situations, onto them.

 

Robots taking offense...

You are treading into territory that involves one of the most dangerous thought experiments of all time.

As one article says: WARNING: Reading this article may commit you to an eternity of suffering and torment.

Read up on Roko's Basilisk. If you dare.

Mere discussion of it has been purported to have given participators nightmares and even breakdowns, to the extent that all further discussion of it was banned and existing documentation deleted.

I've never heard of this; how funny.

''If there's one thing we can deduce about the motives of future superintelligences, it's that they simulate people who talk about Roko's Basilisk and condemn them to an eternity of forum posts about Roko's Basilisk.''
—Eliezer Yudkowsky, 2014

LOL!

Yudkowsky may be onto something...

 

Will AI acquire an ego? According to GPT3 itself, AI will be a perfect companion to humans for dangerous jobs or jobs that require patience. Does that express a willingness to be of assistance always? Good question.....

 

He is serious!

AI will be able to hack any electronic system, given enough time. They can now write their own code and if it can write code, it can decipher code!
