Episode 56: Passing the Turing Test

July 15, 2018 by exponentialwisdom

Peter and Dan discuss Google Duplex, an AI system capable of conducting natural conversations to carry out “real world” tasks over the phone. The technology is directed towards completing specific tasks, such as scheduling certain types of appointments and makes the conversational experience as natural as possible, allowing people to speak normally — like they would to another person — without having to adapt to a machine.

In this episode:

  • Peter talks about the Turing test, developed by Alan Turing in 1950, as a test of a machine’s ability to exhibit intelligent behavior equivalent to, or indistinguishable from, that of a human, and why he believes Google Duplex has conquered this feat. Read the Google blog here.
  • Dan and Peter discuss the implications of technology like this, when AI’s master realistic voice-synthesizing, and the societal and legal ramifications. Will AI’s be required to self-identify by law? Should they?
  • Peter describes a future where AI’s impact the education industry and believes we are less than 5 years away from this disruption.

Episode 52: When Everything Is Intelligent

April 8, 2018 by exponentialwisdom

Peter and Dan imagine a future when AI saturates everything in our lives and every object becomes intelligent with the ability to learn about you.

 

 

In this episode:

  • Peter shares stories from his recent trip to China, including his experience with $5 machine learning chips that transform any object less than $100 into an intelligent machine.
  • Dan describes tasks that currently annoy him and his belief that annoyance is where innovation happens first.
  • Peter and Dan discuss things they don’t want an AI to help with, and why certain things in life will stay analog to give humans pleasures.

Episode 51: Advertising to AI’s

March 18, 2018 by exponentialwisdom

Peter and Dan discuss the future of advertising products and services, including new possibilities when personal AI’s are in the world. Peter describes a near future in which artificial intelligence is so good at predicting desires that we will ultimately give them control of our purchasing power.

 

In this episode:

  • Dan shares his history in the advertising business in his early days out of college at a large agency in Canada, where they did print, radio, and television ads for big brands, and how this business has dramatically changed.
  • Peter paints a picture of the future when personal AI’s with perfect knowledge will have enough data to correctly predict which products and services we will want, even before we ask.
  • Dan and Peter agree that human-AI collaboration will ultimately level up humanity in a way that will dramatically change many industries, including advertising and marketing.

Episode 36 Card

Peter and Dan discuss the ability of artificial intelligence (AI) to make predictions far better than humans, given the explosion in the amount of data in recent years.

 

 

In this episode:

  • Peter discusses how MogIA, an AI system developed by an Indian startup, correctly predicted the outcome of the 2016 presidential election, basing its analysis on 20 million data points from platforms such as Google, Twitter and YouTube.
  • Dan talks about another implication of predictive AI in sports betting. One company Unanimous AI runs a program called UNU using swarm AI, which correctly predicted the 2016 MLB playoffs and the Chicago Cubs as the World Series winner.
  • Peter and Dan discuss how we will find out the true meaning of “being a human” in the next few years as AI’s start becoming more and more capable.

Episode 35 CardPeter and Dan discuss awarding the $10 million Qualcomm Tricorder XPRIZE, which involved designing a portable wireless device that can monitor and diagnose health conditions from the palm of your hand. The prize concept originated during a lunch with Qualcomm’s Executive Chairman Paul Jacobs, a fellow Star Trek fan, when they decided the Tricorder medical device should exist.

In this episode:

  • Peter describes the power of incentive prizes with examples dating back to 1714, including the invention of canned food.
  • Considering the vast amounts of data in the healthcare field, Dan and Peter explain why AI will have a major role in democratizing healthcare, and how an AI diagnosis will ultimately be better than the best human experts in the world.
  • Peter describes the process of awarding a XPRIZE and the roadmap needed to bring technology to market.
