  1. The fact that human brains are notoriously inefficient with their massive processing power isn't really an argument in your favor. This simply indicates that we don't need a computer nearly as computationally powerful as a human brain to have an AI more intelligent than a human.

    The thing is the brain's processing power is mostly subconscious. Just look at the act of getting up and going to the fridge to get something to eat and go back to what you were doing. If you try to translate that over to machine language, that task is hugely complicated; and that's ignoring the aspect of doing that of it's own decision and not a preprogrammed command. Yet we do it with our minds wandering half the time.

     

    Though that may be where an AI would hold an "advantage" (depends on how you want to look at it) over the human brain is that it wouldn't have the barrier of a subconscious.

  2. sounds like common activity for kids here in winter time. Gets below freezing, stick tongue to metal pole. You will yank piece of your tongue off

    Likening that to an activity is worrying.

     

    OT: lightly related to yanking a piece of your tongue off, I have a sore on my lip that's been there for over 2 weeks because every time it seems to get close to healing, it keeps getting bitten while eating, and cut fresh open. T_T

  3. Agario for the first time in like 6 months.

     

    I realize in Teams mode your life expectency is generally much higher but 3 1/2 hours before I finally died? I must have been the longest alive in that game. And only died because I was baiting another team to split at me so the big guy I was orbiting could split and eat both of him. (which he did, bless his soul)

     

    I saw a complete set of name changes after about hour 2.

  4. A bit frustrated myself. It's getting harder and harder to find a website out there with even the slightest mention of political subject matter that isn't spilling over with more passive-aggressive outrage than a battalion of soccer moms all of which whom just received a chicken salad on the side when they SPECIFICALLY asked for a Caesar.

     

    Ugh.
