You're the one who's not making sense. You make the mistake of confusing ensemble subsets with elements equality.
If you use a spoon to eat, does that mean that you're a spoon?
In a major boost to universal healthcare access, Stanford researchers have trained an algorithm to diagnose skin cancer with the same accuracy as dermatologists.

Interesting OP and an important topic that tends to be underestimated IMO.
People like Elon Musk and Stephen Hawking have hinted at the potential dangers of super-human intelligence. Hans Moravec is among those who see the opportunities and positive side of things.
Fact is that we're taking baby steps right now, but "general AI" is likely to evolve to the point where the power of the human brain will be surpassed by machines. This may lead to a technological singularity and an intelligence explosion.

Oh boy I give up.
Keep on believing your stuff. Yeah, neo, algorithms are evil! Quick, hide your family and your personal properties from algorithms! Them algorithms are after you and your life! Uncle Sam needs YOU to fight against algorithms.
Lol I can't stop laughing now, better log off.
Over time, the AI agents learned how to behave rationally – and while they showed the researchers that they would sometimes cooperate, the games revealed the AI would turn on others when necessary.
When the environment had plenty of apple, the agents worked together to collect as many as they could.
But, when the number of apples dropped, they learned it would be better to shoot at the other player, giving themselves more time to collect.

Obviously you don't understand artificial intelligence which depends on INTELLIGENT ALGORITHMS.
If you didn't know how important algorithms are to artificial intelligence then you need to read a book or study an article about artificial intelligence before making a comment on the subject.

"Algorithm" isn't a substance, silly. AIs can't "control algorithms", any more than you can steal someone's Pi constant.
You're not making any sense.
You don't have any clue as to what you're talking about. You're trying to separate AI from Algorithms which is just ASININE!
Your whole analogy about the black board shows you don't know what you're talking about. You said:
Yes, AI depends on algorithms. But that still doesn't make algorithms "artificial intelligences", no more than writing an equation on the black board will make the board self-aware.
What a silly statement!

By the looks of your post, you're equating artificial intelligence to a black board which is just ASININE!

You're acting like artificial intelligence is something separate from these algorithms. That's why I asked you what is artificial intelligence and you couldn't answer the question because A.I. is these algorithms not like a black board LOL!

So, really, AI is just a human written program that auto-optimizes itself. However, AI programs are fallible. They may only find "local minimas", meaning they won't necessarily optimize to the MOST EFFICIENT outcome. They just inch toward what, at first glance, appears to be the most efficient path.

For example to get somewhat political for a moment, each state is largely in control of it's own education system. Analogies can be made here, where you convert the system to a bit string, iterate on it year after year, and look at the results. In the end, one of the 50 states will score the best.
NovaSol has several programs working on the development of intelligent algorithms and systems. In a world where information overload is common, there is a demand for some means of extracting only the data that is specific to the domain in which one is working. Doing so successfully allows information to be converted into intelligence.
Intelligent Algorithms in Ambient and Biomedical Computing
The rapid growth in electronic systems in the past decade has boosted research in the area of computational intelligence. As it has become increasingly easy to generate, collect, transport, process, and store huge amounts of data, the role of intelligent algorithms has become prominent in order to visualize, manipulate, retrieve, and interpret the data. For instance, intelligent search techniques have been developed to search for relevant items in huge collections of web pages, and data mining and interpretation techniques play a very important role in making sense out of huge amounts of biomolecular measurements. As a result, the added value of many modern systems is no longer determined by hardware only, but increasingly by the intelligent software that supports and facilitates the user in realizing his or her objectives.
