    Is AI hype?

    In my discussions elsewhere, I've noticed a lot of disagreement regarding AI. A question that comes up is, "Is AI hype?" Unfortunately, when this question is asked, the one asking, as far as I can tell, may mean one of three things which can lead to lots of confusion. I'll list them out now for...

    AI Consciousness?

    I know this topic is extremely contraversial and debated, but I'm writing a book where an AI attempts to become as human as possible. Would it, eventually, especially in the far future, be possible for an AI to gain a conscious? To be clear, my definition of a consciousness being the ability to...

    My ChatGPT Experience So Far

    I've had ChatGPT answer questions correctly that most math PhDs wouldn't know. I've also had it fail on something most six-year-olds could do. And everything in between, a mixture of right and wrong. Nevertheless I find it very useful, even when it's wrong. In his iconic 1905 special...

    AI and the Human Body

    I'm currently writing a novel in which my main character was a victim of experimentation (cliche, I know) but has no memory of it. In the experimentation, technology was implanted in the character's body, allowing an AI algorithm to run off of the character and fuse it's psychological aspects...

    Best AI Tool For Assistance With Physics And Computer Programming?

    I use ChatGPT at this point as basically my personal tutor. It has been a huge help in learning Python code, fixing issues when I'd have them, verify it's working as intended, etc. Also helped me with some of my problems in other classes too (it's difficult for me to make it to office hours a...

    A classic AI movie - Colossus: The Forbin Project

    This 1970 gem explores the potential of a highly advanced, military AI. It is fun and well worth the watch. It also speaks to many concerns people have today. A preview is linked and it can be streamed. But I don't know if you can watch it for free online.
