Ο πόλεμος των ρομπότ είναι ήδη εδώ! Τεχνολογία και ανθρώπινη απληστία!
Οι δύο πλευρές της τεχνολογίας…Αυτή που προορίζεται ή μπορεί να χρησιμοποιηθεί για το καλό του ανθρώπου και αυτή που δοκιμάζεται και εξελίσσεται στα πεδία των μαχών…Δυστυχώς η δεύτερη εκδοχή της, «τρέχει» πάντα πιο γρήγορα από την πρώτη… Ο Φεντερίκο Καρράσκο , επιστήμονας πληροφορικής και ειδικός σε θέματα Τεχνιτής Νοημοσύνης, Κυβερνοασφάλειας, Πολυμέσων και Metaverse, με σπουδές στο τμήμα Μηχανικών Η/Υ και Πληροφορικής, της Σχολής του Πανεπιστημίου Πατρών, ιδρυτής Graypes ,

AI race ("cocaine & champagne") at new highs as the bubble turns ballistic!
Note: This is not a joke, it’s an official Google announcement, based on the company’s technical paper titled: "Towards a future space-based, highly scalable AI infrastructure system design." The initiative itself appears technically, potentially feasible; however, the timing and the manner in which it was presented suggest that it may be driven more by investor sentiment and stock support than by an immediate, revenue-generating business strategy.

Now, as someone who’s been a PC user (and, dare I say, a computer scientist) for most of my adul

AI just cannot do this !
AI will outperform humans in many areas, especially in tasks involving pattern recognition, data analysis , and decision making . But AI cannot fully replace humans in everything, like sports , because of: ❗️ Physical embodiment & limitations Sports are not just about performance ; they are about pushing the limits of human physicality, dealing with fatigue, injury, aging, and more. Robots might outperform humans in strength, speed, precision, but they don’t have
