"Future of Computers"

http://www.kurzweilai.net/index.html?flash=1

I came across this web site I really enjoyed all of the articles and updated material that has been posted. There is an article on this web site that talks about the very topic that I touched off on in my post in the discussion forum “Impacted and control of computers” I very much believe that the future will bring about a new life form that becomes a part of us as a human species! I only hope this will bring about an evolutional jump that blends all the best qualities for the human species/artificial intelligence. The article was written by “J. Storrs Hall” I will not repeat word for word what he talks about in his article; I will touch on some of the key factors that I found fascinating and that I totally agree with.

Hall talks about how we become smarter in the future this makes us better, helping the AIs evolve with the better aspects of us as humans. Taking ideas “like unselfish genes” along with “hyperhuman morality” ( Halls words) This should wipe out our animal heritage! Our children of our minds (AIS) will grow better and wiser than us! Hall ends his article with these words of wisdom. I had to add it for I loved this part! “We will have a new friend and guide—if we work hard to earn the privilege of associating with them!!!”
I feel this is important because this is in my opinion our future if we can pull our heads out of the dark side; and start working more in light ! I truly feel that AIs technology can and will be something that is wonderful for all of us. It is a fact that “Artificial intelligence (AI) is now advancing at such a rapid clip that it has the potential to transform our world in ways both exciting and disturbing. Computers have already been designed that are capable of driving cars, playing soccer, and finding and organizing information on the Web in ways that no human could.” I could not have said it better! This is the fact! We are in for an amazing journey.

Cheers AB Check out (J. Storrs Hall’s) Book!

"Take us on an eloquent journey through an astonishingly diverse intellectual terrain; J. Storrs Hall’s Beyond AI articulates an optimistic view – in both capability and impact – of the future of AI. This is a must read for anyone interested in the future of the human-machine civilization." - Ray Kurzweil”
