“#Wacky AI paper says we should merge with machines<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

You know you\u2019re in for a treat when a pre-print AI research paper begins by explaining that nobody really<\/i> knows what AI is and ends by solving artificial general<\/a> intelligence <\/i>(AGI).<\/span><\/p>\n

The paper\u2019s called \u201cCo-evolutionary hybrid intelligence<\/a>,\u201d and it\u2019s a work of art that belongs in a museum. But, since it\u2019s state-sponsored research from Russia that was uploaded to a pre-print server, we\u2019ll just talk about it here.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The research is only four pages long, but the team manages to pack a lot in that space. They don\u2019t beat around the bush. You want to know how to solve AGI? Boom! Page one:<\/p>\n

The purpose of this article is to show a possible way to create strong intelligent systems based on the hybridization of artificial and human capabilities and their co-directional evolution.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The \u201chybridization of artificial and human capabilities and their co-directional evolution\u201d sounds a lot like people and computers getting the urge to merge and making a go of things together. That\u2019s kind of romantic.<\/p>\n

But what\u2019s it really mean? When AI researchers talk about \u201cstrong\u201d AI they don\u2019t mean a robot that can carry heavy objects. They\u2019re talking about the opposite of a \u201cnarrow AI.\u201d<\/p>\n

All modern AI is narrow. We train AI to do a specific (hence narrow) function and then find ways to app<\/a>ly it to a task.<\/p>\n

A \u201cstrong\u201d AI would be capable of doing anything a person can do. If such an AI ran up against a task it wasn\u2019t trained for, it could write new algorithms or apply knowledge from a similar but unrelated task to solve the problem at hand.<\/p>\n

What the researchers propose is a method by which we would stop relying on massive quantities of data to brute-force progress in AI. They say we should combine our natural intelligence with the machines\u2019 artificial intelligence and become permanently linked in a co-evolutionary<\/em> paradigm.<\/p>\n

Per the paper:<\/p>\n

\n

The development of data-centered intelligence is approaching its limits. Instead of a datacentered approach it is required to use intelligence-centered approach. Hybridization of human and machine intellectual capabilities based on cognitive interoperability and coevolution is a new frontier.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

As to why this \u201cnew frontier\u201d is the only path forward, the researchers offer the following explanation:<\/p>\n

\n

The human cannot create something exceeding his cognitive abilities. Thereby, the analog of the Turing test for the strong intelligence can be created. Consequently, solving a problem that human intelligence is unable to solve, may be a good benchmark. To accept the fact the problem is solved the human intelligence must be developing synchronously with artificial one.<\/p>\n

In other words, a hypothetical model of the strong artificial intelligence can only be hybrid.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The team is telling us that humans can\u2019t build an AI that\u2019s smarter than a human because we\u2019re only human. And, even if we did, we wouldn\u2019t be smart enough understand it. <\/span><\/p>\n

That sounds pretty deep, if we\u2019re speaking philosophically, but we use math to describe the unknown in physics all the time. It\u2019s difficult to place any scientific value on the assertion we couldn\u2019t define a superintelligent AI if we built one.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s just roll with it though. According to the researchers, the path towards hybrid strong intelligence<\/em> involves augmenting data-centric training methods with direct human-involvement at every level of learning.<\/span><\/p>\n

That sounds a lot like the way we \u201ctrain\u201d humans. We send them to school, they get educated, they become experts, they teach, and the cycle begins anew.<\/span><\/p>\n

We\u2019re all for such a paradigm. If every AI company had to do hands-on training instead of just smashing everything inside of a black box and monetizing whatever comes out the other end, we wouldn\u2019t be living in a world where AI scams regularly become billion-dollar industries.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s hard to imagine how putting more humans in the loop will directly lead to strong AI however.<\/p>\n

But, if the researchers are correct in their (somewhat pessimistic and weird) assertion that humans will never create a machine that\u2019s independently smarter than us, a hybrid intellect may be the only<\/em> way to make people and machines smarter.<\/span><\/p>\n
