Michael Anissimov - The Singularity and its Importance
Singularity Institute: singinst.org What is the Singularity? Is there a substantial chance we will significantly enhance human intelligence by 2050? Is there a substantial chance we will create human-level AI before 2050? if human-level AI is created, is there a good chance vastly superhuman AI will follow via an "intelligence explosion"? Is acceleration of technological trends required for a Singularity? - Moore's Law (hardware trajectories), AI research progressing faster? What convergent outcomes in the future do you think will increase the likelihood of a Singularity? (ie emergence of markets.. evolution of eyes??) Does AI need to be conscious or have human like "intentionality" in order to achieve a Singularity? What are the potential benefits and risks of the Singularity? Michael Anissimov is Media Director for the Singularity Institute and Co-Organizer of the Singularity Summit, an annual conference that focuses on emerging technologies like nanotechnology, biotechnology, robotics, and Artificial Intelligence. The Singularity Summit has received coverage from Popular Science, Popular Mechanics, award-winning science writer Carl Zimmer, the San Francisco Chronicle, and many other media outlets. He also writes the popular futurist blog Accelerating Future, which has been featured on G4.TV and on the front page of social news sites Digg and Reddit. In his work with the Singularity Institute, Anissimov emphasizes the need for increased research into AI goal systems to ...

Lawrence Krauss - Future of AI, Physics & Maths
Lawrence Krauss interviewed by Steve Omohundro and Adam A. Ford after the Singularity Summit Australia 2011 summit2011.singinst.org.au It looks impossible to avoid [singularity] - if you can cool things down quite a lot. It is amusing the idea that the universe gives a limit in to intelligence in our human timescale. Mathmatical complexity is not as much of a constraint to thinking about physics as it used to be (thanks to things like Mathematica). Will AIs in the future have different understandings of quantum processes? Eugene Wigner - "The unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics in describing the physical world". We had no reason to expect that mathematics would The playing field of physics has been determined by the symmetries of nature and the symmetries of mathematics - they restrict what is possible and what isn't. It is hard to imagine that that aspect of why mathematics will change after we get machine intelligence. How we frame it and how we explore and explain it in a sense may change dramatically I guess, as may also the questions of interest. So it is hard to know.. so if you ask "if you thought about the world differently what would you know?", "well if I thought about the world differently I would know.". So it is sort of possible to imagine that the kind of questions that are of interest would change - once you know the symmetries of nature, the physics is constrained and its hard for me to imagine that this will change even with [intelligent] machines ...

Eliezer Yudkowsky - Introducing the "Singularity": Three Major Schools of Thought (1/4)
Eliezer Yudkowsky is one of the worlds foremost researchers on Friendly AI and recursive self-improvement. He created the Friendly AI approach to AGI, which emphasizes the importance of the structure of an ethical optimization process and its supergoal, in contrast to the common trend of seeking the right fixed enumeration of ethical rules a moral agent should follow. At the 2007 Singularity Summit, he introduced three schools of thought currently associated with the word Singularity, their core arguments and bolder conjectures, while noting where they support or contradict each other.

Eliezer Yudkowsky - The Challenge of Friendly AI (1/3)
At the 2007 Singularity Summit, Yudkowsky described how shaping a very powerful and general AI implies a different challenge, of greater moral and ethical depth, than programming a special-purpose domain-specific AI. The danger of trying to impose our own values, eternally unchanged, upon the future, can be seen through the thought experiment of imagining the ancient Greeks trying to do the same. Human civilizations over centuries, and individual human beings over their own lifespans, directionally change their moral values. Eliezer Yudkowsky has two papers forthcoming in the edited volume Global Catastrophic Risks (Oxford, 2007), Cognitive Biases Potentially Affecting Judgment of Global Risks and Artificial Intelligence as a Positive and Negative Factor in Global Risk.

Michael Vassar, Singularity Institute (Breakthrough Philanthropy)
Michael Vassar of The Singularity Institute, which brings rational analysis to the challenges facing humanity as we develop transformative technologies. Inspired by the science of human fallibility, we strive to correct the biases that run wild in standard futurism and philanthropy. Our annual Singularity Summit coordinates and educates scientists and other concerned individuals on these issues. Our Visting Fellows program gathers some of the world's most careful thinkers and prepares them to address these issues in their future careers while our Research Fellows engage in original research on topics ranging from human rationality and cognitive enhancement to foundational research in Artificial Intelligence. Michael Vassar is President and inventor. www.singinst.org This talk is from Breakthrough Philanthropy, an evening catalyzing radical advances in technology to address humanity's greatest challenges, Dec 7th, 2010, in San Francisco.

Hive45 Singularity Podcast #59 - Love & Collective Communities
Ray Kurzweil writes about love: "And you can view it in an evolutionary perspective that there is actually value in us connecting to each other, because it leads to better protection of the species if we actually create communities based on love and act as a super organism as opposed to every individual for him or herself, which is actually not a good strategy overall." We discuss his point, the idea of love as a human construct, collectivism vs individualism, the future of individualism, and the benefits of collective cooperation within hiveminds to spur collective intelligence for the continuation of the species.
