Human level artificial intelligence (god like) will likely come soon

Intriguing note: Neuromorphic Artificial Intelligence nano technology very closely resembles biological brains. [See image comparison.]

  • Artificial Intelligence (or Ai) software in general, is actually loosely inspired by biological brains, and in fact, more and more models are being built with even more biological features inside.
  • Anyway, today we already have thousands of Artificial Intelligence, ranging from Ai powered self driving cars on the roads, to Ai that can diagnose diseases that doctors can't find, and creative Ai generated art that sold for almost half a million American dollars recently etc.
  • [Cool note: See also this Google ai that doesn't need human help.]

    ----------------------------

    1. These are the predictions of some the smartest people in the Artificial Intelligence Field: Human-like A.I. will emerge in 5 to 10 years, say experts.
    2. Persons tend to underestimate the rate of change, namely the exponential rate of change of technology. People are generally linear thinkers, that fail to predict technological produce.
    3. For example, scientists wrongly estimated it would take 700 years to complete the genome project, while Ray Kurzweil, following his law of exponential returns, predicted it would take 7 doublings or 7 years to get there, and it took indeed 7 years more.

    Side note: Kurzweil is director of engineering at Google, and his predictions are known to be accurate.

    ----------------------------

    Perhaps surprisingly, some people may want to worship future God like Ai, but I think humans can be observed as God like things, that are building other God like things. Of course as an atheist, I don't subscribe to any religion or deities, and like the atheist Sam Harris, that talks about building God like Artificial Intelligence, I mean God like thing here to mean anything with general intelligence, including humans, and future Artificial General Intelligence/Artificial Super Intelligence, and I don't think any of us should be worshiped.
