«Convoquer des spéculations sur des formes d’IA qui n’existent pas encore et n’existeront probablement jamais, pour terrifier et mobiliser les foules relève plus de la religion que de la science. Ces invitations à embrasser une forme de futur inévitable qu’on martèle pour se persuader qu’il va advenir me cassent les pieds» – Hubert Guillaud.

«Neural nets are just thoughtless fuzzy pattern recognizers, and as useful as fuzzy pattern recognizers can be—hence the rush to integrate them into just about every kind of software—they represent, at best, a limited brand of intelligence, one that is easily fooled. A deep neural net that recognizes images can be totally stymied when you change a single pixel, or add visual noise that’s imperceptible to a human. Indeed, almost as often as we’re finding new ways to apply deep learning, we’re finding more of its limits. Self-driving cars can fail to navigate conditions they’ve never seen before. Machines have trouble parsing sentences that demand common-sense understanding of how the world works.Deep learning in some ways mimics what goes on in the human brain, but only in a shallow way—which perhaps explains why its intelligence can sometimes seem so shallow».

« Physicists are excited when there’s something wrong with physics, and we’re in a situation now where there’s not a lot that’s wrong »
Boykin is no longer a physicist. He’s a Silicon Valley software engineer. And it’s a very good time to be one of those.
In other words, all the physicists pushing into the realm of the Silicon Valley engineer is a sign of a much bigger change to come. Soon, all the Silicon Valley engineers will push into the realm of the physicist.
