RE: The Fundamental Problem With The Concept of Blockchain Technology?

in #steem6 years ago

AI is prone to the same weakness of the human element. AI is only as accurate and can only do what a human has told it. AI can only be as smart as we humans have coded it to be (albeit, machine learning..but that's another topic)

AI is useful in many circumstances however the need for humans will always exist as an intermediary between information and data storage/processing. Using an AI to parse data entered by doctors and return relevant possibilities would be a good use case, you can train the AI to look for recurring symptoms and treatments and present those options to the doctor for review. A single bad entry is not a problem specific to the blockchain, as that exists in databases today.

I beg to differ, bud. When AI becomes a learning, self-sustaining program capable of abilities that improve upon that of their inferior counterparts (us), it only makes sense for that improved system to replace ours. I'm not saying tomorrow or the day after. AI is still in its infancy, but given enough time, I find the end result I propose, quite plausible.

you're describing machine learning, that I already spoke to.

AI is still created by humans, the code it runs on is human made. It is still prone to human error. Until code is being written by computers to run other computers, this will be the case. But of course, the code to make computers write code for other computers...would also be written by humans :)
