More than three decades after blowing up theaters, James Cameron's Terminator 2: Judgment Day remains not only a cinematic milestone but also a prophetic vision for some — including star Arnold Schwarzenegger — who believe the sci-fi blockbuster may have spurred the evolution of modern artificial intelligence.
“It is well known that humans possess inherent flaws, including behaviors such as lying and cheating,” he says. “If these negative human traits were to be learned by robots equipped with immensely powerful computational and physical capabilities, the consequences could indeed be disastrous.
“AI learning today is now done by assimilating large quantities of data, and learning from it in bulk,” he says. “It’s not very human-like, but can serve as a substitute. So, instead of learning on-the-fly, AI systems can simply recall past situations from training data and use that.”It’s important to differentiate consciousness from intelligence, Schmidhuber points out.
It might sound daunting, but Schmidhuber says the amount of intelligence gained within various gadgets and machines will help us get through mundane tasks more efficiently.
