Steve Omohundro is a scientist, professor, creator, and entrepreneur who has a Ph.D. in physics however has spent a long time finding out clever programs and synthetic intelligence. His analysis into the fundamental “AI Drives” was featured in James Barrat’s current ebook Our Remaining Invention and has been producing worldwide curiosity. And so I used to be very joyful to get Dr. Omohundro on my Singularity 1on1 podcast.
Throughout our 1 hour dialog we cowl quite a lot of attention-grabbing subjects similar to his private path beginning with a Ph.D. in physics and ending in AI; his distinctive time with Richard Feynman; the objectives, motivation, and imaginative and prescient behind his work; Omai Ventures and Self Conscious Programs; the definition of AI; Rational Resolution Making and the Turing Check; provably protected mathematical programs and AI scaffolding; onerous vs gentle singularity take-offs…
