Artificial intelligence just reached a milestone that was supposed to be 10 years away

Science is nothing more than poetry.

I like to think that science is the business of naming things. You have a new idea, or "discover" something new (which has really been there all along), and you get to name it. Then you play with the new name and see how it relates to other names.

AI is in the process of coming up with new names for things.

I doubt there is more combinations than atoms in a large mountain. That's absurd to say universe. Did they count?

when you have a AI that want to kill all humans then you can consider that true AI, that's like 100 years away.

Here we go again with the pie in the sky technology bunch! Computers and artificial intelligence always do well in structured situations with well defined rules, like GO or Chess. Put them in situations with more subtle or poorly defined parameters, like human relationships and many types of decisions in real life.....and its back to square one!

You know? It finally dawned on me to ask you: How much Go do you play?
