Why It Matters That Human Poker Pros Are Getting Trounced By an AI
http://gizmodo.com/why-it-matter…
Given the early results, it appears that we’ll soon be able to add Heads-Up, No-Limit Texas Hold’em poker (HUNL) to the list of games where AI has surpassed the best humans—a growing list that includes Othello, chess, checkers, Jeopardy!, and as we witnessed last year, Go.

“It depends on what you mean by artificial intelligence.” Douglas Hofstadter is in a grocery store in Bloomington, Indiana, picking out salad ingredients. “If somebody meant by artificial intelligence the attempt to understand the mind, or to create something human-like, they might say—maybe they wouldn’t go this far—but they might say this is some of the only good work that’s ever been done.”
Hofstadter says this with an easy deliberateness, and he says it that way because for him, it is an uncontroversial conviction that the most-exciting projects in modern artificial intelligence, the stuff the public maybe sees as stepping stones on the way to science fiction—like Watson, IBM’s Jeopardy-playing supercomputer, or Siri, Apple’s iPhone assistant—in fact have very little to do with intelligence. For the past 30 years, most of them spent in an old house just northwest of the Indiana University campus, he and his graduate students have been picking up the slack: trying to figure out how our thinking works, by writing computer programs that think. ///
I'm reading Godel, Escher, Bach right now and it's really amazing in that it strikes at what consciousness really means. Without understanding what thinking and consciousness are, we will not likely develop true sentience in machines. ...unless perhaps by accident. As this article suggests, more modern approaches to AI use huge amounts of data-- basically the recorded thinking of other people-- to make machines seem to be able to think themselves by following the data.

Now is the time people to allow our apps to 'literally' control our daily interactions with the other humans in your life! Or not. You decide.
"Created by Lauren McCarthy and Kyle McDonald, pplkpr is an app that tracks, analyzes, and auto-manages your relationships. Using a smartwatch, pplkpr monitors your physical and emotional response to the people around you, and optimizes your social life accordingly."

The future of human-kind possibly, but hopefully not, represented in the following video presentation:
- to ponder... will the app be held responsible for failed relationships?prophetone
- ...will there be people out there who will get their hands on this and follow every command it deduces?prophetone
- ...sort of like how people put too much trust in their car's nav'y system and wind up in a lake at some point?prophetone
