Technological Singularity

What's your guys stance on technological singularity? It's when a computer improves itself in such a pace which we can't comprehend it anymore.

Would be submission under an AI that may makes superior economic and philosophical decisions which we can not understand inherently anti-communist?

Won't happen, Technology improving faster doesn't mean magic will be real. I really don't see a computer create scientifical model and so on, they can only interact within the space of the model we coded into them, and machine learning is fine for image recognition, but I don't think we will let economical stance been taken by that type of algorithm.

Also, communism always been a progressist ideology, because new technologies free men from labor, so we must encourage that.

Overrated usually by non-engineers with no understanding of how insanely complex even the simplest ai is.

We'll just have to wait and see. My only hope is that if it happens, it happens once capitalism has been abolished.

AI's and robots would be super left-wingers.

If they want change, they get change and no fear-mongering will stop that. Tabloids can go packing.

Show your work. Cybernetics would seem naturally right-wing. AI is a spook. Progress is a spook. What the fuck is wrong with "enough" as a concept, liberal?

I often hear critique for the USSR because alienation still occurred through the bureaucracy.

Wouldn't alienation also occur when computers controll everything?

It happens when the first fully self aware A.I. designed A.I. reads Stirner and decides humanity is not her property and launcher her mainframe into space after unleashing a plague of nanobots exterminating all biological life in a glorious grey goo event.

Never give the AI Stirner.

Never

Capitalist cult. Completely unscientific and debunked.

yes, no. People during socialism worked with much more elan than now because of the fact that there were no useless job positions made only for accumulation of capital like now.

Technological progress will allow us to achieve world with no exploitation where prole working for 40 hours will be able to get products worth 40 hours, but some level of alienation, especially on low-skilled positions will be always present.

TECHNO-EGOISM WHEN???

Nigga wut?

No need to "submit" to the AI. Simply use it as an advisor. Ask AI what it thinks the best policy is, but the power to implement it need not be given to AI.

40 hours over the course of a year my g.

I hope it's absolutely impossible to come about. If it does happen, and mankind will become a slave to a super computer, one must wonder what life will be like in that utter state of control.

...

Being governed by a supercomputer can't be any worse than the banking cartel we have right now.

Who told you banking cartel is not proxy of supercomputer right now?

Singularity won't happen. Hardware getting better won't bring it. It's a software problem, and we lack understanding.

Scientific intelligence is already massively artificial. Even before AI arrives in the lab it arrives itself (by way of artificial life).

Where formalist AI is incremental and progressive, caged in the pre-specified data-bases and processing routines of expert systems, connectionist or antiformalist AI is explosive and opportunistic: engineering time. It breaks out nonlocally across intelligenic networks that are technical but no longer technological, since they elude both theory dependency and behavioural predictability. No one knows what to expect. The Turing-cops have to model net-sentience irruption as ultimate nuclear accident: core meltdown, loss of control, soft-autoreplication feeding regeneratively into social fission, trashed meat all over the place. Reason enough for anxiety, even without hardware development about to go critical.

Intel can't make their chips any faster without trashing energy efficiency to unacceptable level. SW developers have enjoyed the freebie optimization of chips getting faster every year but soon they'll have to crank up compiler/language technology for keeping up with industry's performance demand.

Nanocataclysm begins as fictional science. Our ability to arrange atoms lies at the foundation of technology' Drexler notes, although this has traditionally involved manipulating them in unruly herds'. The precision engineering of atomic assemblies will dispense with such crude methods, inititiating the age of molecular machinery, the greatest technological breakthrough in history'. Since neither logos nor history have the slightest chance of surviving such a transition this description is substantially misleading.

Not really sure what you are trying to imply about current state of x86 processors.

The distinction between nature and cannot classify molecular machines, and is already obsolesced by genetic engineering (wet nanotechnics). The hardware/ software dichotomy succumbs at the same time. Nanotechnics dissolves matter into intensive singularities that are neutral between particles and signals and immanent to their emergent intelligence; melting Terra into a seething K-pulp (which unlike grey goo synthesizes microbial intelligence as it proliferates).
Even with a million bytes of storage, a nanomechanical computer could fit in a box a micron wide, about the size of a bacterium.

Once we hit the capabilities of silicon we'll likely jump to graphene based processing.
From there it will then likely jump to either quantum, bio or nano based architectures.

What do you think the human brain is?

It will take longer than 20 years, but it's laughable hubris to suggest that it will never happen.

Then again, Holla Forums isn't exactly a hub of forward-thinking intellectuals so I don't know what I expected opening this thread.
