Elektronengehirne
«Elektronengehirne: Wie lange dauert es noch, bis unsere Telefone intelligent werden? Gerne sprechen wir unbelebten Dingen einen Charakter und Intelligenz zu. Früher waren es Naturgötter, die Baumstämme und Steine belebten, heute ist es der Drucker, der aus reiner "Bosheit" genau bis zur Diplomarbeit wartet, um in Zungen zu sprechen statt zu drucken. Furcht vor aber auch Hoffnung auf Intelligenz in den Dingen scheint uns sehr zu beschäftigen – so sehr, daß ein ganzer Forschungszweig die Künstliche Intelligenz erforscht und schaffen will. Seit dem mechanischen Schachtürken und dem altehrwürdigen Gesprächs-Simulator "Eliza" hat die Forschung große Sprünge gemacht, Abläufe der Wahrnehmung zu erforschen und zu reproduzieren. Das Ziel: Intelligenz nicht nur wie bei Siri & Co. vorzutäuschen, sondern die Mechanismen im Gehirn nachzuvollziehen und zu emulieren.
Wir wollen darüber sprechen, welche Ansätze Wissenschaft und Industrie heute verfolgen, dem Menschen einen Menschen am anderen Ende des Kabels vorzugaukeln, und wofür man Intelligenz in der Maschine sonst so braucht. Dabei geht es auch um den spannenden Konflikt zwischen den zwei dominierenden Theorien – brauchen künstliche Intelligenzen einen Körper oder können sie auch in simulierten Umgebungen entstehen? Zu Gast im Studio sind Dr. Joscha Bach, Prof. N.N. und erdgeist.»

On Point: Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning
A.I., artificial intelligence, has had a big run in Hollywood. The computer Hal in Kubrick’s “2001” was fiendishly smart. And plenty of robots and server farms beyond HAL. Real life A.I. has had a tougher launch over the decades. But slowly, gradually, it has certainly crept into our lives.
Think of all the “smart” stuff around you. Now an explosion in Big Data is driving new advances in “deep learning” by computers. And there’s a new wave of excitement.
Guests: Yann LeCun, professor of Computer Science, Neural Science, and Electrical and Computer Engineering at New York University.
Peter Norvig, director of research at Google Inc.

To The Best of Our Knowledge: Alan Turing
The driving force behind modern computers, Alan Turing was born a hundred years ago. He launched the digital age, founded the fields of computer science and artificial intelligence, and helped the British win WWII by cracking the Nazi "Enigma" codes. He was persecuted by British authorities for the crime of being homosexual, and committed suicide at age 41. His life ended tragically, but his brilliance lives in the computers we use every day. We celebrate the Alan Turing Year.

Hugo de Garis on Singularity 1 on 1: Are We Building Gods or Terminators?
Hugo de Garis is the past director of the Artificial Brain Lab (ABL) at Xiamen University in China. Best known for his doomsday book The Artilect War, Dr. de Garis has always been on my wish-list of future guests on Singularity 1 on 1. Finally, a few weeks ago I managed to catch him for a 90 minutes interview via Skype.
During our discussion with Dr. de Garis we cover a wide variety of topics such as: how and why he got interested in artificial intelligence; Moore’s Law and the laws of physics; the hardware and software requirements for artificial intelligence; why cutting edge experts are often missing the writing on the wall; emerging intelligence and other approaches to AI; Dr. Henry Markram‘s Blue Brain Project; the stakes in building AI and his concepts of ArtIlects, Cosmists and Terrans; cosmology, the Fermi Paradox and the Drake equation; the advance of robotics and the political, ethical, legal and existential implications thereof; species dominance as the major issue of the 21st century; the technological singularity and our chances of surviving it in the context of fast and slow take-off.
