GRADUALISM. "It's not like the physical sciences. There are no breakthroughs in AI. Certainly not in the 15 years that I've been going to conferences. There are things which come to the fore and become very successful, and AI is full of success, but there's no moment where we split the atom, put a man on the moon, cure a disease. That just doesn't happen. Things are incrementally, slowly, carefully done." http://www.gizmag.com/creative-ai-computational-creativity-challenges-future/36353/ View in LinkedIn

THE SALTATION. “Colton notes that it's "painfully difficult" to get it to accomplish even the most unintelligent of intelligent tasks. And he thinks the idea of a singularity – some sudden moment where AI goes from dumb to hyper-intelligent – is misguided.” https://lnkd.in/dCiCf4U View in LinkedIn

AI IS A BIOLOGICAL QUESTION. Our fears about AI rest squarely in its development of autonomy, going from insensate machine to self-determination. This is the core of the evolution of life questions. As I see it, today, the debate about AI seems to involve everyone but biologists. Biologists could give valuable insights, and in turn, learn a great deal from analysis of evolving complexity that is on the threshold of self-assembly, at the cusp of a phase change in emergence.

TEMPLATING. “A prion is a protein that can take different shapes and in one particular structure recruits others to change into this form as well. These proteins then clump together into a large mass that disrupts and kills neurons. It is a version of a protein that can perpetuate growth like a crystal.” https://lnkd.in/dKV3Xez View in LinkedIn

INTELLIGENT BEHAVIOR. “Viruses and jumping genes, which are virtually just a strand of DNA or RNA, also show complex behavior. Since DNA and RNA are involved in the process of reproduction and creation of new molecules, there is an intuitive understanding how viruses and jumping genes might engage in intelligent behavior. But, can a protein alone engage in intelligent behavior? Is a prion an intelligent protein?” https://lnkd.in/dKV3Xez View in LinkedIn

MUTATIONS. “Inherited cases of CJD and GSS may result from mutations in the PrP gene, which gives rise to changes in the amino acid sequence of the PrP protein. This change would increase the probability of pN transforming into pD, so that the disease would almost certainly occur.” https://lnkd.in/dkdVKcb View in LinkedIn
