extract nitrogen from thin air.</p>
<p>
1941 Konrad Zuse: first program controlled computer...</p>
<p>
Ukraine: first NN researcher.</p>
<p>
RNN recurrent neural networks... deepest and most powerful NN.</p>
<p>
thru learning and trial and error... they change....</p>
<p>
thru training synapses change...</p>
<p>
long short term memory LSTM developed in his lab in Munich and in Switzerland.</p>
<p>
widely used by Google and Apple;</p>
<p>
smartphone press on Google voice... based on his LSTM since...</p>
<p>
dev by his students... current form in 2006 is on your phone..</p>
<p>
learned from experience.</p>
<p>
in comes speech signals...</p>
<p>
go into input units....</p>
<p>
and outputs letters...</p>
<p>
until 2015 did not work v well...</p>
<p>
then replaced by LSTM... can recognize even in noisy restaurant...</p>
<p>
learns synatx...</p>
<p>
improved NLP by 50% !</p>
<p>
pattern recog... kids do it...</p>
<p>
back in Deep Blue... cud not recog. signs</p>
<p>
now computers can... recog ...</p>
<p>
at moment is scaling linearly...</p>
<p>
shows 2012... winning pattern recog with cancer diagnosis...</p>
<p>
world GDP is 80 trillion; 700B per year for health (world)</p>
<p>
shows his competition...</p>
<p>
hears of elephants walking across a dry grass field...</p>
<p>
LSTM outputs this!... no teacher... just lots of training examples...</p>
<p>
he jokes... one person in the audience... "i'm th enexty speaker"</p>
<p>
Deep Go... Deep Mind...</p>
<p>
heavily infl by his students...</p>
<p>
Google.. place better ads...</p>
<p>

<p>
2006 control surgery robots... to tie knots in artif pigs...</p>

<p>
how does gravity work if I push from the table...</p>
<p>
he thinks we will have something like a little monkey (say within a couple of decades)
like a capuchin or a crow... then moving toward human won't take that long.</p>
<p>
tech evol... is 1M X faster</p>
<p>
NNAIsence.... our company...</p>
<p>
eventually AIs will be smarter than humans...</p>
<p>
they will not stick to the biosphere... they will take off for
resources... they will move out there...</p>
<p>
Bs of self replic. robots...</p>
<p>
space is friendly to robots.</p>
<p>
within lightspeed... AIs will travel by lightspeed by radio...</p>
<p>
a new step on the path of Universe.</p>
<p>
last step 3.5B years ago with invention of life!</p>
<p>
privilege to be part of that!</p>

it is not US vs THEM...</p>
<p>
view all of us... one grand scheme from simple to more complex.</p>
<p>
(his view agrees completely with mine)</p>
<p>
Q what can we already see...</p>
<p>
A pure pattern recog</p>
<p>
but soon will see v sophisticated robots</p>
<p>
including strawberry plicking...no robot can do that!</p>
<p>
also get a stream of data that you (the AI) directs...</p>
<p>
stock market...</p>
<p>
what do you want to do next...</p>
<p>
(who is the blonde moderator... asking Qs at end)</p>
<p>
Q will wordy professionals be replaced...</p>

<p>
might parents teach the wrong things...</p>
<p>
how abt self driving land mines...
how about teaching kids to do bad things... </p>
