      As conscious subjects, we are extremely biased to believe that we owe our capabilities and our understanding of the world to our own individual intelligence. When in fact, we can do very little and we know very little on our own. It's collective intelligence all the way.

      Hence the fascination for "human-level intelligence" in AI. What they mean is "civilized human", the intelligence of which is 95% the civilization and 5% the human

      If all you knew of humanity were a few kids from a hunter-gatherer tribe 100,000 years ago, would you still want to build human-level AI? An ant colony might start to look like it would be a lot better at optimization.

          Exactly! Individualism is predicated on those sort of false assumptions. That perspective causes so much harm

          Why make your argument depend on denigrating hunter-gatherer kids (did you study them)? What does ‘optimization’ mean here: ‘optimizing' what?

          If we could have human-level AI running in a Raspberry Pi, what could simulation and genetic algorithms do in a supercomputer? The strong limits for AI are in the qualitative of general intelligence not in the quantitative. That's why outsiders get scared with Moore's law and AI

          Related: We will probably achieve human-level AI by 2029 according to some metrics, but not according to other missing metrics that make the difference, and it will be disappointing, e.g. no robot surgeons, sorry.https://youtu.be/JiXVMZTyZRw?t=10m3s …

          One day in looking back AI will ask itself, would it even consider creating a biological life capable of consciousness when it was learning tic-tac-toe.

          A _single_ intelligent agent is a ridiculous idea indeed. At least nature screams so.

          Some big shots propose learning in humans is unsupervised. They site the example of how a child learns. What an over simplification!! By that logic we should never require teachers, friends, society to teach us anything.
