Artificial Intelligence, which stores all the memories, can become our invaluable assistant

In his speech at the TED 2017 conference, Tom Gruber, one of the leaders of Apple Inc., who made his own contribution to the creation of the Siri assistant system, demonstrated another possibility of using artificial intelligence systems. From his point of view, artificial intelligence can become in the future something like an "expander" of a person's memory, which will become an invaluable assistant and help a person overcome some of the shortcomings caused by his physiology.

Tom Grubber notes that, due to the wide use of various Internet technologies and the prevalence of devices such as smartphones and tablet computers, the network already now has a fairly large amount of information relating to each individual. And a specialized artificial intelligence system capable of collecting all the data about a person can become a "backup memory" of a person who begins to lose memories due to Alzheimer's or multiple sclerosis, for example.

But not only the elderly and people with disabilities will be able to benefit from the use of artificial intelligence in the hypostasis offered by Tom Grubber. "Superintelligence can give a person superpowers," Grubber says, "Because the machines we create become smarter, we are also becoming the same." The introduction of artificial intelligence will create a "team" with a person, each member of which will make every effort to achieve goals or And the question "how smart can we make our cars?" Should already sound somewhat different, "How clever can our cars make us?" ".

The ideas voiced by Tom Gruber closely resemble the ideas expressed in due time by Ray Kurzweil, a famous futurist. "As soon as we succeed in realizing full-fledged models and algorithms of machine learning and self-learning, our machines will be able to recognize patterns, to work out solutions, and acquire other qualities of a person, only they will be able to take advantage of their computer nature - the speed of searching and processing information , Huge amounts of memory and the ability to quickly share knowledge with other computer systems. "

Despite the attractiveness of all the above ideas on the one hand, and the appalling "reverse side of this medal," everything goes to the fact that such ideas sooner or later will be embodied in reality. This is indicated by the increase in recent developments in the field of artificial intelligence, as well as advances in the creation of interfaces such as the brain-computer, which in the future will make artificial intelligence an expander of human capabilities.
