This is definitely a breakthrough in artificial intelligence.

With all of the money Mr. Burns has got, and the reliability of Homer, this would be a no brainer for him.
@CrimsonFury006 - hopefully such machines will be all connected to one anothers data stores, and will be constantly learning - then we can also count on them to - like all clever thinking humans - see how stupid things like nuclear power are, and flat out refuse to partake in anything supporting of such nonsense.
@ThePeterKrpan And I, to some extent agree with you.... the ability to step into and experience an environment gives us machines a programming advantage over current man made machines but this is changing. We recieve our data from the 5 basic inputs or senses. So will computer/robotic AI systems if we so choose to program them that way. Also via any other senses we can bestow upon them. They will also be able to cross reference this data in ways we can only imagine. see Project Blue Brain!
@ThePeterKrpan we as defined by every human being that exists so far..while I agree that some day some human may solve those problems so might a computer using genetic algorythms or machine learning. Do not be so sure that computers can't some day pass as human. As for consciousness, there is no clear definition of what exactly that means. We are made of atoms and computers are made of atoms. so the difference is in the arrangement of those atoms. Not some spooky ghost fog within the machine.
@ThePeterKrpan Its not so simple. For 1 it was programmed to program itself using a genetic algorythm or machine learning. 2nd humans and other life forms are programmed to program themselves. You are genetically preprogramed with a software program known as DNA and your brain rewrites its own structural information code and 3rd no one has clearly defined what consciousness is so perhaps it is relative. Maybe it isnt as conscious as a human but more so then a toilet or a cockroach.

@joffeloff - 'I'm not really sure if letting AIs loose in the financial services region would make it better, and not worse.'

@MannySteinerBleeky cant be any worse then letting congress loose in the financial systems from finacing realestate to low credit high risk borrowers via the credit reinvestment act and backing it with fannie mae freddie mac and AIG's seal of approval.

Those decisions are all human made via greed and arrogance 2 traits not yet programmed into AI systems.
@DK0526 - I'm actually fairly confident that of the few possible worthwhile futures human society has ahead of it, taking the truth of where we are at as a whole right now, most will only come about via the machines having to lay it out for the idiots to behold - how their priorities are all wrong, how they changed paradise into a work-slave un-natural urbanised nightmare. The other good futures happen without some kind of 'divine invasion' only if the eco-sane take over running things.
@MannySteinerBleeky I dont think that even those with the best of intentions and knowledge can save our planet with out the help of AI. One thing is cerrtain unchecked population growth with out AI, Nanotech, and Genetics will end in eco catastrophy eventually. Why because human population growth is exponential. And dumb humans make more babies then smart ones. However moore's law says computers breed quicker (18 mt doubling time vs human reproduction at 15 yr min) and they will be smarter too.
>>> At least with AI, Genetic and Nanotech. Human contraception can be perfect like a switch. Also resources are unlimited via nanotech,,,btw the universe is a big place to colonize. Everything gets smarter in a nanotech smart material world. Smarter is always better then stupid!
@DK0526 - I don't think wet nanotech can always be a smart move, not until we can make DNA ourselves so therefore can truly say we understand everything it's doing in vivo. Dry nanotech however is a different kettle of fish altogether, though at such small levels there can sure be crossovers from bio to-from tiny robots & circuits. Tampering with stuff you invented is different to tampering to stuff that is pre-extant and not fully understood - biology is very complex & full of unknowns.
@DK0526 - yeah, I'd agree - they'd need to actually get their 'ascended masters' or aliens or whatever they say is supposed to be guarding and looking after this planet to show themselves and take fucking charge, otherwise - they're going to need the AI.
So true as well, just like in Idiocracy - the nice good & intelligent people mostly don't have children cause they rightly see how bad things are here.
Is that a real-time game? How do they get around synchronising all the gamers - given they all have different ISP qualities and line qualities, and depending on where they are located some gamers have to route through many more networking devices to get to the same server/s, so their latency is going to be huge by comparison.
@1zinn - only way I can think of to make that a fair online gaming system is to ensure via a network of synched-servers that everyone playing is sent the same data packets, those update the game to its current state, then the gamers make their next move, those packets are synched, the key part being that everyone has to make their moves based on the same data as everyone else. But it'd slow the game to a few frames a second, if you're lucky. Maybe when it's all fibre...
Important finacial decisions my ass!! All you get out of right financial decisions is gaining money someone else would have had instead, if you had simply done something TRULY important.
So please spend energy on something that leads to total positive help, and not just brainlessly fight each other for the finance.
This info management system is really applicable for today, however... as technology progresses (and as our genes seem to decline, massive increase in ADD etc) I hope something like this doesn't develop a "free will"... because that could be really bad news... making a potential entity that is substantially more efficient, intelligent, and independent then us could have some serious complications for us humans.... seriously...
this ad is pretty scary like playing Bioshock2 videogame etc...I am sure people in 2050 will use this ad to describe how it all started...and then the Caos of 2050..
Computers are still plenty far away from even approaching the complexity of the human brain. The brain is an electro-chemical marvel with mysteries that will keep us guessing for centuries to come. Drugs with acronyms for names can be instructive on this matter (just avoid PCP, for the love of God!)
@mutoneon do a you tube search on project blue brain or do a search on moore's law and you see because of exponetial advances in information technologies...the next 30 yrs will not put us 30 steps ahead of the curve but 1 billion steps. Today via project Blue brain we are already reverse engineering the human brain. This will be done long before 30 yrs is up and not centries. Get ready for some fast paced change. like it or not things are accelerating exponentially...see ray kurzweil on youtube.
@DK0526 Ray Kurzweil is not a scientist, a journalist, or even a visionary. He's a guy who has mastered the art of making radical statements about technology in order to generate page views. It's clear you've been slamming his Kool-Aid for some time. The human mind is far more complex than we know, and we know it is far more complex than our most radical modeling can handle. We have only scratched the surface of the electro-chemical wonderworld in our minds. Your idealism is crude.
@mutoneon I respect your opinion on Ray Kurzweil I am going to follow Bill Gates opinion myself...."Ray Kurzweil is the best person I know at predicting the future" He has been touted as a genuis by The Wall Street journal, Forbes, Bill Clinton, MIT's Marvin Minsky, Sun Microsystems Chief Scientist Bill Joy. Kurzweil was the principal developer of the first omni-font optical character recognition (OCR), the first print-to-speech reading machine for the blind, the first CCD flat-bed scanners ect.
@DK0526 Bill Gates is so good at predicting the future that he put Steve Balmer in charge on Microsoft. Quit regurgitating passages from Kurzweil's wikipedia page, it's a waste of your time and mine. Just because you helped develop character recognition software doesn't mean you're qualified to discuss biology and physics. "I am going to follow so-and-so's opinion..." How about forming your own opinion?
@mutoneon All human knowledge to some degree is built on the backs of previous knowledge and other peoples hard work even albert einstien was inspired in mathematics by Max talmud. To try an insult and belittle my belief systems because they draw on the inspiration of others is a sad attempt to show your self as above the fray. As if you are full of original thoughts. You have taken no inspiration from others or learned from any other human being. Arrogant yes?
@DK0526 I'm insulting your belief system because it is just that: a belief system. You haven't qualified any of this stuff yourself, and you're taking what others say at face value because you like the sound of it. You're not "taking inspiration" when you highlight text from a wiki bio page and paste paragraph after paragraph into youtube comments. If anything, you're committing plagiarism, fortunately you're stealing content from a site with a creative commons license.
@mutoneon Kurweils Bio is quite public. Nothing within it is untrue. Do you take issue with the fact that he has invented all those things, recieved all those awards from well respected institutions, or pioneered so many industries??? It is very telling that you had to look up his bio to learn about him before you knocked his credentials. It shows that you have a tendency to spout off prior to doing research...once humbled by the truth rather then admit it you try and change topics...weak!
>>Kurzweil has successfully founded and developed nine companies in OCR, music synthesis, speech recognition, reading technology, virtual reality, financial investment, medical simulation, and cybernetic art. Ray Kurzweil received the Lemelson-MIT Prize, the nation’s largest award in invention and innovation, and was inducted in 2002 into the National Inventor Hall of Fame. He also received the 1999 National Medal of Technology, the nation’s highest honor in technology. But what does he know LOL
@mutoneon Nice try at ignoring Ray's credentials. The fact remains he is well respected and has accomplished far more then most people on the face of the earth. So when he speaks not only do people like me listen but the worlds leaders, the worlds leading scientists, The movers and shakers on Wall street ect. But you are free to blow him and my admiration for him off if you choose. What have you done to improve the world? Or do you just pride yourself in exclaiming what can't be done?
@DK0526 The movers and shakers on Wall Street have bankrupted the global economy, why in the world would you invoke them in an argument meant to establish credibility? From what I can tell, many of the world's leading scientists consider him to be a charlatan. My cousin is a molecular biologist, and he finds Kurzweil to be entertaining at best, not someone to take seriously. There is something called realm of expertise, and Ray doesn't seem to respect it. In 2011 we emulate CPUs, not brains.
@mutoneon This post helps to illustrate your lack of understanding about Wall street. There are clearly movers & shaker on wallstreet and crooks & parasites. To lump them all together is a form of broad brush bias that is all too common in simple minds from bigots to conspiracy theorists. Your cousin if he even exists clearly doesnt see the big picture. He has tunnle vision and can't see beyond molecular biology into related physical sciences such as information technology. What did he invent?
@DK0526 Dude, save it. You've got plenty of assumptions and generalizations of your own. I never said Kurzweil wasn't a decent human being, I said I find his predictions in the realm of artificial intelligence to be overly optimistic. Quit acting so butt hurt.
@DK0526 On Wall Street the crooks ARE the movers and shakers. You are naive and idealistic, and lack the technical background to make the outlandish claims that you do. You are throwing dogma that someone else invented at everyone commenting on this video. Congratulations, you're a fan of Ray Kurzweil. No one ever said you couldn't be. You should exert your energy elsewhere, the ROI isn't high in the youtube comments section.
@mutoneon Your ignorance is only superseeded by your arrogance. People like you are truly sad and you are correct I shall not waste any further energy on your troll like behavior. In this world there are those who make good things happen, who spark positive change and idiots who are affraid of anything that sounds to complex or advanced. They are the types who laughed at the wright bros and scoffed at the idea of space travel. Its a good thing they are not taken very serious. I have better>>>
>>.better things to do then to quible with you. So I will end by moving on...you can have the last word because I'm not listening nor are the movers and shakers who create the world you are so terrified of!................OUT!
@DK0526 - picking up on an earlier comment - we have more than 5 senses, and we don't exactly have public scientific quantatization on what the soul is - ie it's known you can die, your soul leaves your body and is able to be jumped back into it via a shock to the heart, well that can be the same for machines. Real AI will be something like that - ghosts (EM heat packages of memory, thoughts) that can inhabit complex-enough circuits of decision-making. Listen closely cause they're already here.
@MannySteinerBleeky It is not known where you soul goes when your dead, alive, or in between. It is not even known what a soul is and if it even exists. Further even the concept of the soul is muddled by everyone's personal definition or belief of what a soul is or isn't. So there really is no way to infer the soul or "ghost fog" would or can exist in a machine when we haven't even settled what it is or isn't in a human.
@DK0526 - it's measureable as an electromagnetic field. If you get trained in certain types of psyops they will teach you astral projection and how to see auras (those are things you need a soul to do / have a view of), that's how they read people. Lots of police do that too, it's what makes society so insidious that it doesn't recognise the very things the background running of it all use to go about their lives. They pretend it's not real so they don't get labelled mad.
@DK0526 - I don't know if you believe in free-will or are more deterministic, but if the former - the juncture point/s in the neural flashes at which a decision is made after weighing options & outcomes (for anyone aware enough to do that) is like the soul / consciousness, it's the 'you' that continues to exist after the flesh dies off, & can be pulled back in with electricity if your heart stopped.
btw note how many clever inventions & ideas come from likes of LSD experiences.
Shades of COLOSSUS: THE FORBIN PROJECT!! Listen to how they're talking about Business's interacting with their Customers. Like they're doing YOU a favor? WE (Watson Enterprises) will control the Horizontal. WE will control the Vertical. WE WILL screw it up. And YOU will pay for it! All I know is that when I want to find the answer to ANY question, all I have to do is look it up in Wikipedia. Can't go wrong there! (Tell me, ...when you turn your cellphone off, can THEY still hear you?)
watson is absolutely garbage, even if waston saves few lives so wat, thousand of human dies all over the world, millions are homeless, global warming, humans destroying the planet and cause animals to extinct, disturbing the ecosystem, deforestation, i guess fuck all tat and lets build watson to answer wats "supersize" faster then two retards lmao fuck ibm with its invention!!!
4:22 "...and make us smarter individually, which will then create a smarter planet."
Okay, yeah, so we become more intelligent as Homo sapiens when a computer does all of our thinking for us? How does that promote intellect? Having someone else do your own mental work actually just makes you lazy.
@KingdomEllipsis it doesnt mean having an intelligent machine that could solve and analyze our world would make us more lazy. imagine what this, interfaced to our brains could do. maybe perhaps this is our next step in the evolution tree. having more data crunching abilities would inspire us to learn more, solve more complex questions like a unified field theory or that P is indeed = NP.
I'm tired of this "machines taking over the world!" nonsense. IBM has not built SkyNet. It hasn't built HAL 9000. What IBM has done is plant a seed for our future. That is, they've created a system that will supplement humanity. Its, at best, no more than a really knowledgeable assistant.
Think of the 2008 movie "Iron Man". Tony Stark's JARVIS. That system which help him built his suit. Note the moments where JARVIS is making suggestions? This is exactly the type of system IBM is aiming for.
next thing you know computers are taking over humans jobs, they finally start thinking on their own and see how much were fucking up our world and then boom.. they are gonna distric 9 our asses if not pull a skynet up in dis bitch.. and thats a scary though imma go shoot myself now..
If Watson becomes a critical component in key decision making, will it also become legally culpable. In other words, will Watson become the ultimate legal scape goat for poor decisions. "Well, Senators, we based our decisions to over-leverage our financial positions on what Watson told us and therefore you cannot hold us responsible for the resulting collapse the financial markets."
@techwiz81 watson is only as smart as its creators, so basically you get like 500,000 humans to register information creating basically one human with 500`000 peices of information.. since those 500`000 people dont know how to cure cancer neither does watson.
@silentpounce you gotta though dude, that watson has artificial intelligence, meaning it can conduct research much faster than humans, and without help.
Only half true. Sure watson is a smart computer. But it is only able to process information and condense it and or if they develop it further present ideas? But who makes the decisions?? It is us human. Humans do not have the speed of computers processing power, but most of us are able to make relationships far beyond what computers are able to in any other way.
I am jeopardizing my status however the truth must come out "Watson" is a flawed computer that has not functioned properly since its creation The opponents were told & paid to lose on purpose so that IBM would be able to market their system to various fields; Customer Service Finance Healthcare Government educational & the like Do not be fooled by what you are viewing for its a dangerous ploy as expressed above I bid you all adieu & I beseech you not to "buy into" IBM or other individual's lies

fuck, all our information from facebook is going to be put into watson turning him into the greatest marketing tool of all time. something so cool will be turned into a way for the corporations to turn another profit
Watson chould have a robot body, with sensor data so it knows how it feels, like power status.. The meaning of intelligence is to satisfy needs, instincts and avoid pain
Exciting as well totally leaning to the positive. Whose considering the negative aspects of IBM working with governments (corporate governance) to the disadvantage of the public interest in relation to privacy issues, manipulating data, and control over daily life. Is there such a thing as "corporations in the public interest?" I guess it comes down to the age old question of will technology serve society or will society serve technology.
I mean, if we use AI to give us advice because the data is too complex for humans to swallow and spit out an answer then we're taking the answers on faith and the little knowledge we do have. Ultimately, the only way for the AI to be USEFUL is for us to submit ourselves to the AI and this is the overlord scenario.
Human: We don't feel you're right, we just can't can't!
Watson: You know the law! He's guilty.
Human: You don't understand. I can't do this!
Watson: I hereby dismiss you. I will inform headquarters.
If we make computers our overlords, what will we do when we disagree and the data is too complex for us to understand on our own? This reminds me of Minority Report - the movie.
Hoy, Watson es la forma historica de este siglo donde los humanos comenzaran a ceder espacio para el intelecto artificial que estaran en los robots del proximo siglo
@amirhdrz91 - 'But how can a computer be smarter than it's creator??'
in this case, it'll be when it realises what some of them are saying or thinking about it, and what some people think about what its abilities means to their intelligence.
In many ways, awareness = intelligence, so one important type of intelligence is being able to see things from as many points of view as possible aka covering all possibilities of any given situation. This gives data on which to make informed choices wisely
Watson is about aggregating large amounts of data in a world where digital (and non-digital) information keeps growing day by day at a faster rate than anyone can keep up with. Watson can make sense of all this data and provide answers through different algorithms. What makes Watson different than a self-searching Encyclopedia is from the way it can interpret queries, or language in the case of Jeopardy, and further learn from experience. This is much more impressive and useful than any game AI.
you have no idea what your talking about. even the star craft A.I Turned to max is prity tuff. and compairing watson to the star craft A.I is like compairing a comador 64 to Sky Net. if watson with the basic Star Craft AI biult in would have the ability to macro and micro perfectly and would get beter and beter with each game it lerns from its mistakes after a few 50 games against the best sc2 players it would be un beatable.
@corneliusdn just wanted to point out the starcraft2 AI on Brutal actually cheats. they get extra income.... watch a replay. Computer AI is not intelligent or original. They programmed a few openers that the computer follows exactly. human ingenuity will always win in starcraft. watson is a big deal because he is, as a computer, digesting NATURAL language and producing answers. yeah he technically has all of the answers... but so does google... and you really have to guide google dont you?
@akec4242 there is a HUGE difference between having all of the answers... and knowing how to decide which one is the correct answer. watson is amazing technology.
@ChuckNorrisKratosLOL So the built in computer AI in Starcraft is more advanced than Watson? j/k, I see where you're going with this. The system that watson runs on however would be capable of playing starcraft better than any human and built in AI on a standard PC, mostly that's due to the immense processing power and speed at which the watson system operates.
@ChuckNorrisKratosLOL You do realize that there is basic gameplay from the computer already IN StarCraft, right? And if somone sunk the money and time to optimize that it would easily become superhuman. StarCraft is a fun game, but it's not something any more advanced than other games. In fact, it's being basic in gameplay in many ways is part of what makes it a good game.
@grendel824 Not even that. The "AI" in StarCraft is nothing more than a script. It was written specifically for that game and does nothing more than execute a set of instructions designed to solve a specific problem.
What is amazing about Watson is that while Watson is solving a specific problem, the questions that are asked are not specific or restricted. This isn't exactly general artificial intelligence - but it is definitely an important necessary step towards this goal.
You don't need Watson to help solve what created the economic crisis, I can give you the answers right now, three things: over population, greed, and corporations.
oh so its like super google.

Important finacial decisions my ass!! All you get out of right financial decisions is gaining money someone else would have had instead, if you had simply done something TRULY important.
So please spend energy on something that leads to total positive help, and not just brainlessly fight each other for the finance.

Computers are still plenty far away from even approaching the complexity of the human brain. The brain is an electro-chemical marvel with mysteries that will keep us guessing for centuries to come. Drugs with acronyms for names can be instructive on this matter (just avoid PCP, for the love of God!)

@DK0526 Ray Kurzweil is not a scientist, a journalist, or even a visionary. He's a guy who has mastered the art of making radical statements about technology in order to generate page views. It's clear you've been slamming his Kool-Aid for some time. The human mind is far more complex than we know, and we know it is far more complex than our most radical modeling can handle. We have only scratched the surface of the electro-chemical wonderworld in our minds. Your idealism is crude.

@mutoneon I respect your opinion on Ray Kurzweil I am going to follow Bill Gates opinion myself...."Ray Kurzweil is the best person I know at predicting the future" He has been touted as a genuis by The Wall Street journal, Forbes, Bill Clinton, MIT's Marvin Minsky, Sun Microsystems Chief Scientist Bill Joy. Kurzweil was the principal developer of the first omni-font optical character recognition (OCR), the first print-to-speech reading machine for the blind, the first CCD flat-bed scanners ect.

@DK0526 Bill Gates is so good at predicting the future that he put Steve Balmer in charge on Microsoft. Quit regurgitating passages from Kurzweil's wikipedia page, it's a waste of your time and mine.

@DK0526 The movers and shakers on Wall Street have bankrupted the global economy, why in the world would you invoke them in an argument meant to establish credibility? From what I can tell, many of the world's leading scientists consider him to be a charlatan. My cousin is a molecular biologist, and he finds Kurzweil to be entertaining at best, not someone to take seriously. There is something called realm of expertise, and Ray doesn't seem to respect it. In 2011 we emulate CPUs, not brains.

@DK0526 - picking up on an earlier comment - we have more than 5 senses, and we don't exactly have public scientific quantatization on what the soul is - ie it's known you can die, your soul leaves your body and is able to be jumped back into it via a shock to the heart, well that can be the same for machines. Real AI will be something like that - ghosts (EM heat packages of memory, thoughts) that can inhabit complex-enough circuits of decision-making. Listen closely cause they're already here.
MannySteinerBleeky 8 months ago
@MannySteinerBleeky It is not known where you soul goes when your dead, alive, or in between. It is not even known what a soul is and if it even exists. Further even the concept of the soul is muddled by everyone's personal definition or belief of what a soul is or isn't. So there really is no way to infer the soul or "ghost fog" would or can exist in a machine when we haven't even settled what it is or isn't in a human.

@DK0526 - it's measureable as an electromagnetic field. If you get trained in certain types of psyops they will teach you astral projection and how to see auras (those are things you need a soul to do / have a view of), that's how they read people. Lots of police do that too, it's what makes society so insidious that it doesn't recognise the very things the background running of it all use to go about their lives. They pretend it's not real so they don't get labelled mad.

@DK0526 - I don't know if you believe in free-will or are more deterministic, but if the former - the juncture point/s in the neural flashes at which a decision is made after weighing options & outcomes (for anyone aware enough to do that) is like the soul / consciousness, it's the 'you' that continues to exist after the flesh dies off, & can be pulled back in with electricity if your heart stopped.

in this case, it'll be when it realises what some of them are saying or thinking about it, and what some people think about what its abilities means to their intelligence.
In many ways, awareness = intelligence, so one important type of intelligence is being able to see things from as many points of view as possible aka covering all possibilities of any given situation. This gives data on which to make informed choices wisely

Watson is about aggregating large amounts of data in a world where digital (and non-digital) information keeps growing day by day at a faster rate than anyone can keep up with. Watson can make sense of all this data and provide answers through different algorithms. What makes Watson different than a self-searching Encyclopedia is from the way it can interpret queries, or language in the case of Jeopardy, and further learn from experience. This is much more impressive and useful than any game AI.
