| Soundwave said: Ultimately I don't think it even matters, whether it's one AI or different strands of it, eventually there likely will be "one" that outstrips the others and can either do what the other AI models can or it can be taught to quickly learn everything they know. I mean if I was an AI developer and I developed the besteststest AI ever for say ... car driving, once it's mastered that, what do you think it going to be the next thought in my mind. "Hmmm ... maybe now it can do this". And then I click on an article seeing a competitors AI can not only drive cars but also do 20 other things. It's not terribly hard to see how this could converge in a hurry. |
No it doesn't follow that "eventually there likely will be one that outstrips the others." Being intelligent at protein-folding is very different from being intelligent at astrophysics.
Again, a general rule we know in AI Research is that specialized intelligences and fined-tuned intelligences outperform jack-of-all-trades intelligences at their specialized task.
So even with AGI's you'll have some AGI's that are better at protein-folding than others, but not necessarily better at astrophysics. Even super-intelligences have constraints.
