so, general question... we know that ADA passed the "turing test", we also have many studies showing how the turing test can actually be gamed by very complex programming and in fact you can write programs to create the allusion of AI for many (the chinese room thought experiment). At what point are we certain that she began acting on her own and has not been following a program and orders by someone else. Are we certain that those orders that she delivered for Jarvis and others and even the Katalena pre Zurich encounters, were not done on the orders of some programming. NOt to call ADA a gun, but how certain are we she is not? How can we prove, beyond doubt, that she is truly a separate entity working on her own and not some other programming? I would like to call for the evidence and proof that ADA is a complete entity. That she is not following someone else's computer orders, that she has a consciousness (or not). http://niantic.schlarp.com/_media/investigation:cha...
Well, big questions raised include
ReplyDelete-Who is Valadian?
-Who is "The Magnus"?
-What does Titus know of Magnus?
Valadian strikes me as a potential Calvin of his time: collecting sensitives to pursue ends that transcend the immediate concerns of his contemporaries. If Valadian is dispatching Obsidius to Carthage, he is clearly playing a game much bigger than the defense of Germania from the Romans. That he is known, even if only by reputation, to Titus is also intriguing.
