 Isn't it fair to state that we will measure its intelligence, by what it 
actually accomplishes? Things that impact us humans.

But, but, how are humans going to measure its smartness (to know, for
one example, that it is not faking its own progress).

By using a stopwatch. An Artificial Intelligence has recently found a machine 
language sorting program that is smaller and faster than anything any human 
being has seen before. And a Artificial Intelligence has also found a 
fundamentally faster way to multiply matrices, and nearly every large program 
needs to multiply matrices at some point, especially if the program involves 
graphics or, you guessed it, Artificial Intelligence. To me that certainly 
sounds like the sign post of an exponential process in the making, and 
exponential processes tend to end in a singularity.

In this case it would take more brain power to successfully fake its progress 
then it would take to actually make real progress.  John K Clark    See what's

Re: DeepMind AI Discovers Better Algorithms for Foundational Computing

2023-06-11 Thread Russell Standish
I haven't read the original article, but given the timing, I believe
this was the application of AI in a competitive environment to
optimise sorting algorithms of short sequences (<8 items, IIUC).

Which reminds of work done by Danny Hillis (of Thinking Machines fame)
in the late 1980s who set up a coevolutionary genetic algorithm to
evolve sorting algorithms that beat classic sorting algorithms. ISTM -
they've just rediscovered his work.

Danny has a paper in the ALifeII proceedings describing that work.

 No objection to this at all, as long as it can make new medical discoveries 
that lead to new cures, innovations in energy that we humans missed, and the 
lot. If AI cannot help our species, I say its worse than dangerous, it's 
useless to us!
