Privacy against security.



When we talk about security we must ask “whose security that act serves”. We know that the internet is a tool that offers the greatest propaganda platform that we have ever seen before. The net is full of tools that are used to prove that writers are humans. The AI-based applications offer the possibility to share data into even billions of homepages and social media applications in seconds.

Data that AI creates can block almost any private server on our planet. And that makes it possible to use the AI-created data to block entire web services. Confirmation that people who use the net are who they claim is one of the things that used to argue that people should use their real identities on the net. The anonymous use against the confirmed use are things that both have their supporters. Anonymous use allows users to make reports about corruption and many other things.

And that makes people support that way of using the net. On the other side, anonymous use offers change for cyber attackers and disinformation deliverers to operate on the net. Things like AI agents can operate in the targeted networks, steal information, and deliver it to other users. That kind of thing can be put in order by forcing people to confirm that they are humans. And then tell who they really are. But that is similar to the U.S. firearms laws. Those things don’t stop propagandists or psychological operators from sending their fake information to the net. 

Those people, especially if they operate under state control to operate. Those disinformation actors can use fake or stolen identities. And the authorities can confirm those faked identities. If we want to deliver propaganda as an example from Russia, we must have computers in some states like Finland. Then we can take the VPN to that computer from Moscow and then start to deliver that information to the net by using that remote computer, which is located in Finland. So, in that case, we would ride with the Finnish networks. The operator who is based in Russia tends to stay away from Western countries. The assistants make everything, and that makes it possible for the person who knows something to stay under control. 



Bye bye algorithms.





We are waiting for the new step in the AI development and research process. Many big technology bosses say that this is the end of algorithms. And the next step is self-learning AI. That system can communicate with robots and all other systems. The self-learning system can learn in two ways. It can create new models that it uses in certain situations. Or it can connect a new module into itself. The reason why advances in AI go to self-learning systems is simple. 

New algorithms are very complicated. And their training requires so much time that the self-learning models are better. The thing that makes this kind of thing very complicated is that the new AI must operate in larger areas. They must control things like street-operating robots. So they need a more effective way to learn things. The street-operating robots can use platforms that look like computer games to learn how to cross the roads, and where those robots find things like apples if they go to shop for their owner. But then those robots must face unexpected things. 

Robots can share their mission records with the entire system. And that helps to develop methods on how to operate in natural situations. Basically, the difference between a learning system and a normal system is that the learning system can create new models and then compare the original model with that new model. There are parameters that determine which way to act is better. And if the new model is better, it replaces the old one. This means that the fixed model turns into a flexible model. That model lives with its environment. 

That thing is the AGI or artificial general intelligence. That kind of AI is everywhere, and it can connect multiple different systems that seem different under one dome. The biggest difference between AI and modern algorithms is that the system can bring new data from sensors to data flow that travels in the system. The AGI is a system that might be "god-like" but if that system cannot create genetic codes like manufacture the DNA it might have no ability to control living organisms. However, the system has many ways to manipulate evolution. 

The AGI can make couples that have certain skills. The fact is that dating applications are effective for dating. And it's possible that the AGI can also make it possible to select perfect spouses. So people who are not "perfect" leave without a couple. And that means only people who are suitable, or similar can make descendants. This causes segregation and loss of diversity. 

And that is a sad thing for humans. Self-learning AI is a tool that can learn from its mistakes. It learns what to do, and what it must not do. The thing is that the self-learning AI is the new common tool that can make almost everything. The system learns like humans. And that makes it the so-called AGI. One tool fits all. The system can control things like robots.

Robots can collect data for that system. The AGI works like this. One robot sits on a chair and then the teacher teaches things for, and through that thing. Then that robot shares new things across the entire AI and network. For training that kind of system, a lot of information. And companies like Meta have that data. And AI makes it possible to create things like AI agents that sneak and observe what happens in the network. Robots can learn from other robots. When one robot makes a mistake, it scales over the network. Other robots must know that they don’t make the same mistake again.

Why does an antique chess console beat Chat GPT in chess?



When we think about those antique ATARI consoles from the 1978 model we always forget that they were not as easy to win as we thought. Those chess programs handled every kind of data as numeric. And the Chat GPT-type artificial intelligence handles that game as visual data. This is one of the things that we must realize when we think about this type of case. Those old chess consoles used very straight, linear tactics. The main difference between modern algorithms and old-fashioned computer programs is that those old programs are linear. And it handles all buttons and movements separately. 

So there is actually a chessbook in those chess programs, that it follows. Those old chess programs were more difficult than some people believe. If you were a first-timer in chess that means you would lose to those consoles. They played very aggressive and straight games against human opponents. The system tested the suitable movements for each button separately button by button. Because the program was linear the movements were made in a certain order. In those chess programs, every movement is determined by the program square by square. The programmer determined the movements for every button and every square separately. And that made those programs quite long. 

Those old-fashioned chess programs have a weakness that if something goes wrong they continue by following that line. There are certain numbers of lines that the program can use. And there is also the end of the line. Those programs can use complete tactics. But their limit is that those programs are fixed. They don’t write their databases and models again if they lose. And that makes those old-fashioned consoles and video games boring. When people learn tactics that it uses they can beat those old-fashioned programs. The limit of those video games is seen in action games. There are always the same points where enemies jump in front of the players. 

Then we can think about things like learning neural networks. Those networks can beat all old chess programs quite fast. The problem is that the neural network must see the game of the console before it can win those systems. AI is like a human. It requires practicing and training. Without knowledge of the opponent’s game, the AI is helpless. There are many ways to teach AI to create tactics against old-fashioned programs. The system can use some modern chess programs and then analyze the opponent’s game to create tactics. 

The other way is the system can analyze the source code and create a virtual machine that it can use to simulate the chess console game. But what do we learn from that case where antique consoles beat the modern AI? Without training the AI is helpless as humans. If the AI has no knowledge of how to play chess, it must search all data including movements of those buttons that make it as helpless as humans. 

Those old-fashioned consoles are RISC applications. They are made for only one purpose. Their code is completely serving the chess game. Modern AI is a complicated system. It can also do many other things than just serving the chess game. And that makes those old consoles somehow difficult to wing, at least when the AI can break its movements and tactics.

The gentle singularity: what is the limit of the singularity?



The next step for artificial intelligence is the artificial general intelligence, AGI. That is the tool that connects every computer under one dome. The AGI is the self-learning system that develops its models and interconnects them with sensors that bring new data for the system. That means we can interconnect every single computer in the world in one entirety. We can think that social media is something new. We forget that a long time before Facebooks were the letter clubs. The “post offices” where people can send letters to people, who could be pseudonyms. 

Social media is not a new thing, and Facebook and other applications are the products of a long route that started in Ancient Rome and Greece where wall writing or graffiti was the beginning of social media. Social media interconnects people from around the world. The new thing that the net brought was speed and maybe the price of those systems is low. But as we know there are no free lunches. The thing that doesn’t cost anything can have the highest price. The ability to create singularity between computers brings the ability to share and receive information with new forces. 


And then the new step for AI and computers is the brain-computer interface, BCI. The BCI means the ability to control computers using the brain waves, or EEG. The system can interact with computers and it can operate also between people. This system can interconnect all animals and humans in one entirety. And there are risks and opportunities about that model. If we make things wrong we create a collective mind. There is one opinion. So we interconnect our minds and computers into giant brains. That is a very sad thing. That thing destroys our own creativity.

The biggest problem with social media, AI-based dating applications, and finally singularity is that the system destroys diversity. People want to discuss and date only people who are similar to them. That means our way of thinking starts to turn homogenous. That causes a situation where we have no people who disagree with us. We can hear only ideas and opinions that please us. We take only people who are similar to us, in our social networks. So, in the worst case, we and our networks operate like some algorithm that recycles data through the model. That means we, our team, or our network will not get anything new to our model. We just recycle something if we don’t accept diversity. 

Our mind needs ideas and motivation for making new things. And where can we get those new ideas? We can discuss those things. Or we can get information that some other party made. And then we can work and refine the information that we can get from net pages and other media. Without opponents our productivity and creativity die, because we have nobody who brings new ideas into our minds. 

In some models, the network can develop things by playing games against some other network. The network creates a simulation and then the model tries to fight against that simulation. If a model wins there is no need to develop it. But if the model loses it requires adjustment. And that means the system requires data and then it requires optimism. 


In the novel “Peace on Earth” the author Stanislaw Lem introduced a model where the simulator creates a model and the other fights against that model. The better simulation becomes a model. Until something creates a new, better model. 


There is another way to operate as a network. The network can accept individually operating members. The idea is that every operator that is connected to the network is autonomous. Those subsystems operate autonomously when they collect data. When the network doesn’t need order it can be chaotic. And when an actor sees something that requires a lot of information, the roll call comes over the network. “Everybody stop, the network needs your capacity”. That commands those autonomous subsystems to leave their work and start to solve bigger problems. 

So, the network operates as a whole when it requires that ability. The network can have subsystems and that means as in the case of an extreme crisis those subnetworks create models that should handle that problem. 

Those subsystems can be individual actors. When the individual actors play against each other, that lost actor joins with the winner and starts to develop a model that won. Then the actor couples start to play against each other, and again. The lost team joins the team that won and then starts to develop the tactics that won the game. The actor groups or networks expand when new actors join bigger entities. 

Those subsystems start to play against each other. When some subsystem loses, that means its tactics are lost. Then that lost actor joins the winner's team and gives its capacity to that team, or network. The network always drops lost tactics or action models until there are two networks against each other. And the better wins. This is one way to create the answer and solution for complicated problems. The expanding network could be the thing that brings solutions to many problems. When the network is in chaotic mode actors search data for it. 



 

You, me, and the language model.



Who has responsibility if people let their thoughts to some AI?


Why do we let AI think for us? The road to this point is long and rocky. When we order the AI to make essays and poems we follow the journey that began a long time ago. When we read essays and poems, made by AI we can say how those things destroy our creativity. At this point, we might say that we can buy a poem book and write that poem from it. 

So, in this case. We simply copy a poem from the book that some great poem master made. And then we can look at the mirror and ask from that image, who made the poem that we just wrote? We wrote a text that some other person invented. So, if we think about this case, and connect AI to that continuum, we see that AI is taking the role of the poem book. In the point of the receiver or reader, it's the same who made that poem. 


Is it some Chat GPT, or is it some Lord Byron? The poem was not made by the person who wrote it on the card. Then we can think about people like Sam Altmann who make more and more advances in AI. We blame them and AI and search for mistakes from them. But then we forget our own responsibility. The user makes the decision to use AI, so we decide whether will we make poems ourselves or will we let some other actors make those things. We have responsibility for things that we make and introduce to people. When we make and introduce some poems ourselves, we face very pithy criticism. 

When we say that people must go to libraries, read books, and do other things, we must be honest. Are we only jealous of people who have tools and skills that we didn't have 20-30 years ago? When we look at work effectiveness we gaze at things like time. 

That a person uses for work. And if the work is done faster, we give that person new work. Would that be an encouraging way to work? If some person does the work faster than others and the work is well done, should we give the rest of the time free for that person? 

Or should we give a new job to that worker? And then order the person back to the office. And take some artificial smile to our faces and then fire that worker because that person makes work better and faster than we do? Or should we cheat that person about poems that this individual worker published on social media? 


We can also remember that person who is part-time working in our company. That means we can use our supreme control and show everybody how jealous we can be. If a person goes to some poem courses at the labor college outside the working time, we can find a new shift for that person. We have some ideal vision of what a henchman should be, and if a henchman does not fit into that thing, we must change that person to fit into that mold. 

That can be crushing. So, it's easier to take the book from the bookshelf. And then make a copy of some of those well-known poems. That means we can say that the person who invented that poem was somebody else. That might be impressive. We didn’t use our own brains for that poem. We made hard work if we took a pen and then copied those words. But it is easier to make the copy using a computer. Or, maybe we find some of those poems from the net and then use copy-paste. Then we must not use our brains at all. AI is the tool that releases our resources from thinking to something else. When we think about cases where somebody makes their own poems, we must realize that every poem makes the first text. 


We decide the easy way. If we want to write some poems or essays, we must sit on our computer. And then we must take the trouble for that text. If we have some other things to do, we have no time to write texts and think about things that we make. Sam Altmann or anybody else than me and you decide if we use AI. That makes our life easier. It leaves our time to have a social life in discos and bowling alleys. But is that the advance that we want? The answer is that the decisions that we make show the road. 

People like Sam Altmann are basically businessmen. They follow the Maslow hierarchy of needs. When our basic needs are filled we want more. AI is the thing that allows us to transfer all our productivity to some computer. And that is the thing that makes AI advance faster than we expected. When the AI satisfies some need, there is another need it must respond to. This is the thing in AI development. AI can make things better than humans. 

Or, we can say that it can make some things better than humans. But then we must realize that AI must also learn new things. There was a story that some antique ATARI computer beat Chat GPT in chess. That thing happened because nobody ever taught the Chat GPT the chess. In the same way, we would lose all chess games against the monkey if we ever played that game. Every skill that AI has is a module. And if the AI has no module for something it's helpless. The AI requires lots of power. The AI, or LLM server requires its own power platform. And when we develop new and more scalable AI systems, we need new and more powerful computers. 

But still, we must realize that the AI that makes everything cannot make things from nothing. Those systems require massive databases and as much power as some cities. That waste heat can also be used for energy production. But the problem is always the temperature. New solutions like biological AI where the microchips communicate with microchips are coming. And in the wrong hands, those systems are dangerous.

Artificial intelligence and spam filters make BCI more versatile.



The problem with the brain-computer interface, BCI is similar to speech command applications. But thoughts are not so easy to control as speech. There is a possibility that the person looks at the camera and uses gestures when the command starts. The gesture can be some cup that the user shows to the computer that the work starts. And the other gesture can be something like a spoon. That the computer knows the commands end. Those things can be finger marks and they could be determined before the speech command sessions. 

So the person shows the mark to the web camera and writes gesture 1 and then the system asks for gesture 2. The system must also recognize the voice of the speaker so that things that some other person says will not disturb the computer. The gesture allows a person to discuss and talk in the room. Voice recognition allows computers to filter non-necessary and useless things from the text that the computer gets. Then the grammar check program can change the text that the speech-to-text application makes into literal text. After that, the system dumps that text to the application and turns it into commands. 

The AI requires spam filters in the training period. The spam filter removes the white noise or so-called non-useful information. The spam filters can also adapt to the brain-computer interfaces, BCIs. Those AI-based systems can remove so-called white noise from neural tracks. And that makes it easier for the BCI to separate information that is purposely delivered to it from thoughts that are not meant for commands.

The person must not think anything else, than commands what that system should follow or complete. If a person thinks about something else, that can cause serious problems. The biggest problem with the BCI is the user. The AI can translate EEG curves into actions. But the problem is if a person starts suddenly thinking about something else. 

One thing that can make the BCI more effective is that a person must move things like fingers before giving orders to the system. But the problem is how to control thoughts at that point. But there is a possibility that very flat microchips will be put below the skull. And the antenna or contact point is on the skull where systems can download information and communicate with brains and computers. 

The system can also load those systems' batteries wirelessly. If those microchips can be installed under the skin on the skull, they are far easier to install than regular brain implants. The surgeon must just find the right places and then put those microchips under the skin. The bone mass will glue those microchips on the right points on the skull. BCI microchips can communicate with the internet through mobile telephones. Or they can use the computer’s bluetooth connections. 

But things like biological power sources like electricity-producing cells can also feed those systems' needs for electricity. The fact is that the biotechnology-like ability to create cloned neural tracks makes it possible to restore the ability to move to more people. And those cloned neural tracks can also make it possible for the microchip to communicate with living neurons through the skin. Those neurons that form artificial neural tracks could be connected to the microchip that is under the skin and then the sensor. That is in a hat or helmet communicates with that microchip. 

The next-generation BCI systems might not need surgery. The goal, or guiding light should be that the system uses sensors that are as easy to wear as hats. The problem is that those hats must position those sensors in the right positions. 

The fact is that the system called Magnetoencephalography, MEG can read data from the brain shell. The ability to connect interactive microchips to things like fingers should be easier than implanting them into brains. Those systems can open the neuro-implants and open neuroports to other systems more versatile than using traditional brain implants.

Why are we obsessed with AI?



People are obsessed with AI. The question is: why? The answer can stay in our society. We have the attitude that everything must happen fast. That's why we rather use the Internet than books. There are philosophers, home thinkers, etc, who say that we should go to the library and read books. But when we are in working life we have no time to go to the library and then find things. That we need.  If somebody wants people like students to go to the library and read books they must give time for that. 

When we are at work we must be effective. We have no time to go to the library to search for books, and then write some philosophical thoughts about them. People ask why we give our right to think to AI. The answer is that AI makes everything more effective. If we want to be creative that means we are not effective. If we want to become philosophers we must not expect that our society accepts that thing. 

When we think of something alone we are not social and effective. We are alone with our thoughts. And that is not what society expects us to do. Society wants us to make results. When we write something that takes time. And if we use AI we can make much more texts. Quantity replaces quality. Nobody respects the text that we make ourselves using our own words. People respect models that some other person made. 

Those models make it possible to make more texts and the next step is AI. There is no time to make offers by using your own words. The effectiveness means that people use some models. Lots of offers are better than one that a person makes, using their own words. 

When somebody needs information that means information is needed right in the moment. On our working day, we don't even have time to ask the person who sits next to us that person's name. We don't have time to think about things. And another thing that we have is fear. What if we give a wrong answer? 

That is one of the worst fears in modern life. So if we don't have time to think about things, we don't dare to answer. Using our words, and introducing our own ideas. AI is similar to some poem books. We can take a poem book. And then search for some impressive words and copy them to the text. The next step is the use of AI.

We must use things like AI tools. The AI tool is like a secretary that makes our speeches and other official texts. So we can go in front of people and say, here I read a paper that my secretary has written. That offers the escape door to us. If there is a mistake we can blame our secretaries for that thing.  

The same way, if we make referrals about articles and books that we read, those words might be wise. That's true. But those words are not our own words. Maybe Socrates was a very famous and wise man. But that person wrote his own ideas and words. When we make a speech to our ceremonies we should write our own texts. 

I think that people like Socrates and Plato were very intelligent. But if we just loan those texts, and copy them we cannot find new Socrateses. We cannot find a new philosophy. And what we need is the time to think and the time to handle and observe our thoughts. We are so busy that we have no time to go to the library, and read books. If we are wrong we would face blame. We must have time to go to the Gym after work. We must have time to be social. And we must have time to do many things. 

But then we must realize. That we have no time to sit and read. If we want to go to the library to read books we must find time to do that thing. 

If we buy a book or borrow it. But we have no time to read it. 

That book doesn't offer a very big advance in our knowledge. If we want to get information and use it we must open that book or database etc. And then our mind must be ready to receive that data. 

We don't have time to think about things and the consequences of our work. If we don't dare to write things that we think we cannot find new Socrates and other philosophers. If everything that we write and introduce must be so scientifically proven we should realize that those things don't bring advances.
