Post by: Kilroywashere on April 08, 2019, 03:46:13 am

So how smart is Sophia?  how smart can a robot really be, doglike smart or just a glorified puppet?

There are no "smart" robots, and as of today, whatever is called "AI" isn't even close to being anything more than a glorified algorithm and/or hardware platforms combining them in useful ways.

Figure out the amount of programming to run the programs "Ant" and "Ant colony" and " Successful Reproduction". Then run it on a processor a fraction of the size of  and power consumption of a  microchip and transfer it with just DNA, not eeprom. Then move on to "Norway Rat".

The little tiny ants that found  a crack in my bathroom wall have a little problem of continuously sending workers on a biotrail to a non extent food source.  Nothing to close the feedback loop on a failed trail. Other then that, they do pretty darn good, and since it takes almost nothing to build a new worker ant, I guess they are expendable.

When Sophia is even remotely close to the self learning and adaptation features of the brain of a Norway Rat or a Crow,  let me know...
