Onde Esponenziali | Adele Savarese | TEDxSalerno


[Music]
the wave is a sine wave at a peak
maximum is a minimum, another is a bass
a regular course
we are surrounded by sine waves
in our life here in this too
radio waves room light microwave ics rays
gamma rays
when we talk about inevitable waves
think of the sea because the single
water molecule rises and falls from a
average level to follow the trend
sinusoidal of every wave on its path
there is little to do the sinusoid expresses a
security sense of tranquility of
regularity
just like the sea when albo ma
attention is not always so sometimes
it happens that the sea withdraws the waves yes
move away from the shore and we think but
it’s better we would have a beach is more
great
yet reality appears in his
drama
a wave appears on the horizon and becomes
getting bigger and closer to the
shore and overwhelms everything but it was the same
smooth sinusoidal regular sea of
a little while ago what happened
and a singular event happened a
singularity from those waves
slow and apparently irrelevant
what happened and passed
from a function costs regular action
exponential the exponential function
at the beginning it grows very slowly almost
imperceptibly but from a certain point
in then it grows very quickly
quickly to tend towards the infinite
and when the numerical value of the
exponential function tends to infinity
we talk about singularity I try to
tell it to you with a legend yes
tells that the emperor of china
would like to reward the inventor of the
chess or emperor give me a grain of
rice for the first box 2 for the
second 4 for the third and so on until
cover the chessboard
dubbing the number of each jump
rice grains from the previous box
the emperor consented because
at first the prize seemed to have arrived
at the eleventh place the emperor yes
he may not even in a millennium
could honor his promise because the
grain of the number of rich in rice
of rice had increased exponentially and
even mankind wanted to
start with 64 boxes from a number
finished by those only 5,000 ancestors from
which we descend according to science e
like the exponential we also tend
to infinity thanks to tsunamis
exponentials to the waves have activated
from technology, for example, control
of fire
agriculture the invention of decimals
sure if the first men among those
five thousand ancestors who had to
grind kilometers to find a
partners today knew that one is enough
swipe to the right while sitting on the couch
jokes aside, it is undeniable that one
of the main challenges of the human race
is to live better
and in fact we are the only one species
which has always tried to extend the
own area of ​​application beyond
limits of brains and biological bodies
from parchment to download from the stars
today gps robot with a gentle soul
they can help us in the life of all
days
reduce the number of deaths and injuries for
traffic accidents is a big priority
we all want to live longer and longer
in health and above all we want to lose
less time at home with the chores
household
we understood then that to win
that challenge to improve ours
life we ​​have to improve the machines that
they surround us
that is computers but how to improve one
computer is equipped with intelligence that
nothing else is the sum of three abilities
process more and more data more and more
quickly understand meanings
contexts interactions in the world that there
surrounds and improve the way in time
in which he learns in one word
intelligence
artificial and here is if the god of gods
soldiers and a brave warrior is the god
of the poor and a generous father
the paradox is that today scientists too
they will create their own divinity which is one
machine with supreme intelligence
created and forged by their hands a
our image and likeness and this is
the turning point simulate in computers the
functioning of our neurons e
in fact in the 90s neural networks
they were the great promise but lost him
immediately of interest because the technology
of integrated circuits did not allow
to create too complex neural networks
but here myopia is evident because we have
learned that the initial phase of one
exponential function and apparent calm
the skeptics have not taken into account
of the moore law
according to which the microprocessor, i.e.
the heart of a computer increases in power
doubles its power every 18 months e
in fact today we have algorithms always
more sophisticated optimized hardware
designed ad hoc to simulate the
functioning of neurons and systems of
feedback that improve in a manner
recursive the programming code
we arrived today at the planning stage
therefore, and deep learning from
part of the machines what I am
saying that we have a set in our hands
of technologies that allow us to
to foresee not being so much
far from the moment of singularity
but in the concrete what is this singularity
second ray kurzweil and that moment in the
future in which technological progress
accelerates far beyond our ability to
understanding and prediction and that moment
when we realize that not before
we have the biggest beach but one
incoming tsunami and the nature of this
moment is such that the skills i
human capacities will merge and yes
they will confuse those of the machines and
in fact, artificial intelligence
being
linked to the moore law and therefore to the
development of integrated circuits
he will double his power in a manner
exponential and the human race yes
will find to deal with delle
machines the complexity and
equal and then higher computing power
to that of the human brain
this is the typical wave of science
that theorized in the model of the
nikon paradigms according to which science
it does not advance by stratification
of new ideas but moves forward for
explosive exponential paradigms
revolutionaries of new ways of thinking
singularity is a utopia and one
dystopia is not yet known the answer of
secure ineffable and unpredictable is
incomprehensible it seems impossible to us but
certainly it is inevitable and then the
questions we must ask ourselves in this
time we have available are
two
when the singularity will come
technology and let’s see what they are
the challenges that artificial intelligence
he has already won and which he still owes
overcome let’s realize the status
here first the machines must
improve the distinction between the
objects is a strawberry at the building
must improve the understanding of
contexts because there are a number of
cadillac tucked in the desert of
route sics sics must cover understand
also the common sense as there are ever
of people in line and then there’s that
which is considered the true bulwark
artificial intelligence not plus
ultra
you read it and some news
day ago you know no we create suspense
and I tell you
drive a life from Salerno to Positano
when the machines will be able to
emulate simulate the intelligence of the
drivers we will be very close to the
singularity coming back very seriously
instead, quickly what results
we have reached this in the medical field
is the watson supercomputer of ibm that
manages to make a diagnosis
very precise oncological as well as
we also have other machines that can
anticipate can predict with ten
development years
Alzheimer’s
the degree of automation at the wheel
jokes aside is really
improving so much that practically every
automotive brand is involved in a
certain way in a project of
artificial intelligence and indeed not
mas that says that even in the future
driving will be considered an activity
illegal
we know very well that the machines
they are mastering the rules of the
game learning to fight more and more
frequent they can produce composing
original classical music lead
orchestras can even replicate
to the millimeter the same technique
pictorial of rembrandt the exponential
explosive and in the explosions timing is
we saw it all this morning if you want
riding a wave is crucial
because if you get up too early
you will probably be alone
and the pessimists will turn off any
enthusiasm for the research fund
if you try to go up too late instead
the wave is too high and expensive e
difficult to climb and that also rose
a moment before you is definitely more
advantaged
how do you understand then when it happens
this singularity to understand if one
technology has the potential to flow
in an exponential
just see if it is connected to another
technology that is ahead of her on
curve of the exponential because that
what happens is a towing effect of facts
artificial intelligence being
connected as we have seen the law of
moore could easily be foreseen a
slow start and then it is not spent
a sudden explosion and instead from
90s also has up to over years
2000 was a period in which this
technology was deemed to be without a future
a period called winter
artificial intelligence
let’s go to the second question how
we can prepare ourselves to live in a world
deeply changed by technology
you know those enigmas those
questions such as items you would bring with you
on my own desert island
answer
what I would put in the backpack for
the journey to singularity are
ethics and competence
let’s see the first one we are facing
at the time gnr ok nanotechnology robotics
genetics with this also practically
the microsoft word of DNA always avoid
the human genome is a very thing
simple and what is ethics if not the
ability of scientists not to sin
of arrogance when they get their hands on
man’s DNA not to ask himself just how
but above all who and why should he
re-engineer the man this news
real
I swear scientists now have
found the way to bring back to life i
dinosaurs but we have five films that there
they say it’s not an idea in 2029
we will be able to simulate the brain
human
ok in the form of a code of
programming and it is estimated that by
2050 we will be able to simulate every single one
existing human brain at that time
in the world when scientists will be
a million times smarter and
they will act a million times more
fast an hour will be like a century and
it will be crucial at that time to have one
universal and probable ethical system e
with unshakable and shared why
there will be three types of beings
artificial intelligences that are
they will go around the world
optimizing it for hybrid beings
human intelligence cumani with the
brain connected to the network instead
those are problems that require both
computing power both human traits and
normal traditional human beings
we will say that they have the task of
to oversee this ethical system because
these three beings will not be able to do it
war but they will have to collaborate in
positive and constructive way
and let’s move on to the trump ha competence
just lost to activate the sixth force
Army of the United States
the space force we are preparing for
abandon this planet the cradle
of our civilization
just like the animals abandoned
the water to land on land
but to their difference we have a baggage
millennial of competence that then the
perspective that interests me more for
the role that I have and ninja academy is that
what happens like after electrification
of society starts now
the connie fication process ie
we gradually add layers of
intelligence to existing technologies
who will earn more in the future will be
those people who will work
better with artificial intelligences
now the future affects us all and the
moral duty that has the intelligence of
each of you and look at these
disciplines
if not all of you choose one
study the names you learned it
pioneers read in publications
talk to your friends about it
research as you can from these disciplines
and from their intersections that
the most precise clues on the
exact moment of singularity e
let’s look at this list instead
professions of the future
It amazes me how absent the word is
manager because the future imposes verbs
how to architect quantize
decentralize converse to emphasize
because because they will draw worlds
Immersive , the touch is engineered
protect data is training la
compassion
ok if this list seems strange to you
professions also think that at the time
of the rock stars none would ever have
imagined that 60,000 real rock stars
they would be the entrepreneurs of the
tech and programmers is inevitable
therefore that certain trades not only
those of rockstar can disappear
or become a niche like these here a
favor of non-repetitive works
creative relationships but if nothing else
because many objects of use will disappear
common to which we are accustomed
the keys
the remote control the wallet e
stamp no computer ever there
will make that hateful question you have
forgot the password ie laughter
they have ethics and competence in their eyes
they are fundamental especially if
let’s think about new life experiments
civil
from good political animals which we are
we already see these first experiments
insists dinghy institut which is a think
thank you of nautical engineers biologists
marine activists medical environmentalists
artists is planning an ecosystem of
nano floating nations is a
experiment conducted by peter thiel e
by the son of the Nobel prize Friedman
strongly libertarian imprint for
to test new forms of life forms
civilian in international waters a
policies and tax-free
or my future free zone on the sea
red wanted by the Saudi prince
mohammed bin salman so imagine the
classic city of the future skyscrapers
big data and ai and drones everywhere wifi
free for everyone is this
this experiment comes from the first
country that guaranteed a right to
citizenship for the first time in
story to an android the set design of
blade runner at the start then
glimpse even if to spot of
leopard and what the tech says
vangelis sage france is that development
of these new skills of these
new living spaces of these technologies
they must be guided by emotions and
it is curious to think about the fact that
the amygdala the stone the first instrument
technology of man bring to it
name of that part of the human brain
which has the task of managing emotions
those emotions that allowed us
to transform us into projects
rational as the scientists say
of evolution we must not do
the error when we talk about technology
of
consider only the technical aspect
physical, not the microchip
the circuit is always blue technology
cold gray we must never separate
technology from what is the
potential for realization of life
human that carries with it what it would be
state van gogh
the technology of painting or bethoven
without the piano technology
voglino sauri without the anti telescope
meteorite is estimated that in 2005 there
there will be three billion connected people
plus the digital economy
thanks to the progressive reduction of the
digital then divides three billion
people ready to express their own
potential is a huge potential and not
I look forward to seeing it thanks
