Tell a friend:
Human chess-players fell to Deep Blue in the 90's...
Only the very good players of Go still hold a (shaky) advantage on behalf of carbon-based life. Soon our only real champions will be the painters.
Thanks!
"...I can't let you do that Frank." ooooo, a nightmare.

Have you heard about quantic computers?

I saw a show recently at BBC, "Human version 2.0" It talked about: understanding the brain enough to build brain-like computers and exchanging information from a brain to a computer and vice versa. Serious subject, a bit troubling.

Deep Thought Computer (DT): "The Answer to the great question of Life, the Universe, and Everything..."
Philosophers (Ph):"Yes...!"
(DT):"is..."
(Ph)[slightly higher]:"Yes...!"
(DT): "IS..."
(Ph)[really high]:"Yes...!!!...?"
(DT): "Forty-two".
[pause]
(Ph):"We're going to get lynched, aren't we?"
(DT):"Once you know what the question actually is, you'll know what the answer means"
: )
Yes, I've read about them. "Qubits" for quantum bits.
I think eventually we'll have AI equal to, if not beyond, the human mind.
Conventional computers will never match the capabilities of a Quantum computer. Crazy algorithms that can do multiple tasks at once using the Quantum "entanglement" and "superposition" phenomenon.
Colossus: The Forbin Project, "Never?"
