but eventually we will crack AI
google - "Hierarchial temporal memory"
That's totally untrue, we know quiet a bit about the basics of thought processes, and with advances in functional MRI technology that particular branch of study is progressing quiet well, this doesn't mean we can functionally re-create anything yet or have any ability to do so in the near future but our understanding is quiet a bit more than you're indicating here.We know more about what happened in the first picoseconds of the creation of the universe than the origin of mental processes in our heads.

Knowing brain anatomy does not mean knowing the mind.“If we were to eavesdrop on the brain, we’d have no understanding of what it is saying, what the different areas are talking about and how that results in behaviour,” says Ravi Menon, Canada Research Chair in functional and molecular imaging and deputy scientific director at the University of Western Ontario’s Robarts Research Institute, who will be participating in the CRC conference Wednesday and Thursday at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.
“You’d be correct in stating that we probably know more about what is happening in the universe than between our two ears.”

“It isn’t just going to be new technology” that achieves true and full understanding, says Goodale. “It’s going to be new ways of thinking about the brain, how it works, how neurons communicate, how ensembles of neurons represent the world and generate thought.”
One of the biggest pitfalls is the temptation to observe brain activity and make inferences about the psychological state—for example, to infer episodic memory retrieval from hippocampal activity, fear from amygdala activity, or visual processing from activity in the ‘visual cortex’ (Barrett & Wager, 2006; Poldrack, 2006; Wager et al., in press). These inferences ignore the scope of processes which may activate each of these areas and involve a fallacy in reasoning: “if memory then hippocampus” is not the same thing as “if hippocampus then memory.” The fact that few brain areas, including the ‘visual cortex,’ are dedicated to one process means that self-report is still the gold standard for assessing emotional experience and the contents of thought (Shuler & Bear, 2006). This is a serious challenge for those who would like, for example, to assess your brand preferences or your political affiliation from a brain scan. (And isn’t it easier just to ask?)
@nsaspook - your statements and links suggest that you havent Googled "Hirerachial temporal memory"
or go to youtube and type "Jeff Hawkins"
My video on Automation was about how it has permiated different sectors of society.
Do you know that only Service sector is the only sector remaining that gives majority of employment (85 %) rest of it is Automated. gone are the days when agriculture use to employ most of the people. in my country unfortunately it still does.
Think about it most of the work done by Humans in Service sector does not require intiutive thinking. once a AI is build that avoids physical obstacle and learns that will just start a wildfire in most basic jobs the humans do.
The world is filled with stupid sheeple, not even the top 1% of 1% of scientific intellects on this planet have any effect on politics.
Lol, you assume the people that create and/or incubate technology control it! Ask the key creators of the atom bomb what they thought about it's first use. The next bomb won't be nearly so absolute, but it will end up being far more profound, the Internet as a communication medium is already very close, but that's still too easily controlled from governments.
Man has also let his population increase to the point where it has become self-destructive. He must not only combat the other elements of the environment in order to survive, but he must battle within his own species to determine which individuals and which groups are to survive. No matter how one tries to rationalize the value of human life, one cannot escape the conclusion that there are just too many human beings on the earth.
They must institute a program of population control which will keep the population within the bounds of the long-range capacity of food, water, minerals and energy supplies. North America is not seriously overburdened with population at present, but it is gradually approaching that condition. The population of North America should not much exceed 200 million. No political party can touch these problems concerning the population, but science can find a ready answer.
You Americans have turned into pessimistic people. you both have taken this topic from science into Government policies.
