Transcripts
just a decade ago mankind was flirting
with a lot of jaw-dropping imaginary
scientific possibilities in films and
books calling them sci-fi but little did
we know then that those dreams would
turn into reality quite soon thanks to
none other than AI the possibilities
that AI technology presents are almost
Limitless and it has already begun to
change the way we live and work from
self-driving cars and Smart Homes to
Virtual assistants and personalized
recommendations AI is Transforming Our
World in ways that were once
unimaginable join us as we explore what
AI is how it works and why it is
creating shock waves in the industry by
this time we're pretty sure you all have
an idea of what an AI is don't you it's
such a mind-blowing technology that lets
machines and computer systems simulate
human intelligence processes from expert
systems to natural language processing
AI is turning sci-fi dreams into reality
but how does the magic of AI really work
work these days every vendor is peddling
their AI products and services like
they're the hottest thing since sliced
bread but let me tell you something a
lot of what they call AI is just a tiny
piece of the puzzle like machine
learning first off AI needs some serious
specialized hardware and software to
write and train machine learning
algorithms and forget about one
programming language ruling them all
python R Java C plus plus and Julia all
exist in the AI world the languages
guzzle down labeled training data like
it's nobody's business then crunch the
numbers to find patterns and
correlations after that programmers use
those patterns to make eerily accurate
predictions about the future you've seen
chat Bots that can mimic real human
conversation image recognition tools
that can name every object in a picture
and generative AI that can create text
music and images that are almost too
realistic but here's the real kicker AI
programming isn't just about following
instruction
it's about teaching machines how to
learn how to reason and how to correct
themselves and when it comes to
creativity artificial intelligence is a
total Game Changer it can create whole
new worlds of Music art and ideas that
humans have never even dreamed of so
yeah AI is kind of a big deal and it's
only getting bigger now artificial
intelligence doesn't only mean Siri and
Alexa first off we've got weak AI also
known as narrow AI or artificial narrow
intelligence Ani this is the stuff
that's all around us powering everything
from self-driving cars to IBM Watson and
don't let the name fool you weak AI
might be narrow in Focus but it's
anything but weak this is the kind of AI
that gets things done no questions asked
now let's talk about the real Heavy
Hitters strong AI this is the stuff
that's straight out of sci-fi the kind
of AI that could make HAL 9000 look like
a child's toy strong AI is made up of
two types artificial general
intelligence AGI and artificial super
intelligence ASI AGI is the theoretical
form of AI that would be equal to human
intelligence that's right we're talking
about self-aware problem-solving
machines that can plan for the future
and then there's ASI the stuff of
nightmares this is the kind of AI that
would surpass the human brain in every
way possible we're talking about
machines that could rule the world folks
so yeah weak AI might be the Workhorse
that keeps the world turning but don't
sleep on strong AI this is the stuff
that could change everything For Better
or For Worse
next we have to clear up the confusion
between deep learning and machine
learning deep learning is a subfield of
machine learning and both are subfields
of artificial intelligence the big
difference is that deep learning cuts
out the tedious manual work of feature
extraction by automating the process
which means it can handle larger data
sets machine learning on the other hand
relies more on human intervention to
learn but don't underestimate deep
learning it can use labeled data sets or
raw unstructured data to determine the
features that distinguish different data
categories giving us the power to scale
up machine learning in ways that will
blow your mind you'd be surprised to
know that all these concepts of a
thinking machine have been around since
ancient Greece but it wasn't until the
era of electronic Computing that we
witnessed some serious milestones in the
evolution of artificial intelligence
Alan Turing came up with the touring
test in 1950 to determine if a computer
could match human intelligence John
McCarthy coined the term artificial
intelligence in 1956 and created the
first ever running AI software program
called the logic theorist Frank
rosenblatt created The Mark 1 perceptron
in 1967. the first computer that learned
through trial and error based on a
neural network in the 1980s neural
networks became All the Rage with the
development of back propagation
algorithms that allowed for
self-training and AI applications in
1997 IBM's deep blue took down World
chess champion Gary Kasparov in a
historic match no wonder this artificial
intelligence thing is going to shake up
your life and the entire world real soon
but here's the kicker nobody can agree
on how exactly it's going to happen but
one thing we can agree on you can show
your support by hitting that subscribe
button and turning on notifications to
help us grow and get you the latest
developments in AI technology now enter
Stuart Russell a computer science
professor and AI expert who's about to
drop some real talk and separate the
sense from nonsense he meant that
there's a massive difference between
asking a human to do something and
giving that as an objective to an AI
system when you ask a human to grab you
a cup of coffee you don't mean that they
should make it their life's Mission even
if they have to kill everyone else at
Starbucks to make it happen you expect
the person to factor in all the other
things that we mutually care about but
the important thing is AI systems are
built to achieve a fixed objective
everything has to be specified in the
algorithm and if you miss something
things can go Haywire really fast let's
take the example of fixing the
acidification in the oceans sure we
could have a catalytic reaction that
does that efficiently but it would
consume a quarter of the oxygen in the
atmosphere causing us to die a slow and
unpleasant death over several hours so
how do we avoid this mess
simple just be more careful about
specifying the objective and don't
forget to factor in everything else but
guess what that's easier said than done
because there are countless side effects
to consider the seaweed the fish the
atmosphere the list goes on and on but
the twist is humans often know that they
don't know all the things that we care
about we're aware that our understanding
of the world is limited and we need to
tread carefully but with AI we are
playing with fire because we don't fully
understand the consequences of our
actions AI systems are not capable of
understanding the full objective leading
to Psychopathic Behavior Aristotle's
idea of fully automated weaving machines
and plectrums that can play music
without any human involvement may sound
tempting but it means we don't need any
workers Kane's idea of technological
unemployment in the 1930s suggests that
if machines do the work then many jobs
would disappear you must have heard of
em Foresters machine-dependent
civilization it's a chilling tale of
what happens when humans hand over the
reins to machines we become so reliant
on them that we lose our desire to
understand our own civilization or teach
the Next Generation how to do it sound
familiar it's like Wally but in real
life but here's the catch general
purpose AI is expected to be here by the
end of the century with the median being
around 2045. yeah that's right we're
talking about machines that can do
anything a human can do and maybe even
better but don't get too excited yet
because John McAfee one of the founders
of AI said it's going to take between 5
and 500 years to make it happen and
we're going to need several Einsteins to
pull it off because with this great
power comes great responsibility too so
we have a long way to go before we can
have general purpose Ai and we need some
serious brain power to get us there are
you ready for the ride share your
thoughts with us in the comments below
we'll make sure to be here and provide
the latest information so that you never
miss anything important thanks for
watching this has been how to Ai and
we'll see you in the next one
