Should we be lying awake at night worrying about the Singularity?
What is A.I.?
Artificial intelligence is intelligence—perceiving, synthesizing, and inferring information—demonstrated by machines, as opposed to intelligence displayed by animals and humans. Artificial intelligence leverages computers and machines to mimic the problem-solving and decision-making capabilities of the human mind.
Purpose?
Artificial intelligence (AI) makes it possible for machines to learn from experience, adjust to new inputs and perform human-like tasks. Most AI examples that you hear about today – from chess-playing computers to self-driving cars – rely heavily on deep learning and natural language processing.
Generative Pretrained Transformer 3
GPT-3 (Generative Pretrained Transformer 3) is a state-of-the-art language processing AI model developed by OpenAI. It is capable of generating human-like text and has a wide range of applications, including language translation, language modelling, and generating text for applications such as chatbots.
Examples of A.I.
Apple’s Siri, Google Now, Amazon’s Alexa, and Microsoft’s Cortana are one of the main examples of AI in everyday life. These digital assistants help users perform various tasks, from checking their schedules and searching for something on the web, to sending commands to another app.
What does singularity mean in AI?
What is the singularity in technology? Most notably, the singularity would involve computer programs becoming so advanced that artificial intelligence (AI) transcends human intelligence, potentially erasing the boundary between humanity and computers.
Alex Hormozi on A.I. and GPT-3
Many online pundits would have us fear A.I. (Terminator scenario.). But Alex feels that we should embrace it. He even gives us real-world examples of how to make money from A.I. now.
Alex goes on to talk about what GPT-3 may mean in future generations when it comes to “love” and online dating.
What happens when an A.I. robot is more caring, understanding, and “loving” than the real thing? The comedian Whitney Cummings has done an entire bit about this (found on YouTube). It does make the mind run wild with possibilities.
But it does pose the question: “What will happen when A.I. becomes self-aware and reaches Singularity?”
“The Terminator” starring Arnold Schwarzenegger tackles this very question.
Terminator Scenario
The original Terminator movie was released in 1984 (perhaps to coincide with George Orwell’s famous book 1984).
Plot
Disguised as a human, a cyborg assassin known as a Terminator (Arnold Schwarzenegger) travels from 2029 to 1984 to kill Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton). Sent to protect Sarah is Kyle Reese (Michael Biehn), who divulges the coming of Skynet, an artificial intelligence system that will spark a nuclear holocaust. Sarah is targeted because Skynet knows that her unborn son will lead the fight against them. With the virtually unstoppable Terminator in hot pursuit, she and Kyle attempt to escape.
But back to the money. How does one make money with A.I. as of this writing?
Example 1
You could have A.I. read a book and then distill the important concepts. These can be taken to create social media messages etc.
Example 2
You could have A.I. create top book summaries based on your favorite or the most popular business (or other sectors) books on the market.
Example 3
You could have A.I. create artwork as PDFs that could be sold on Etsy, eBay, etc.
