Buy it here. Or see a preview. Note The reason this post took three weeks to finish is that as I dug into research on Artificial Intelligence, I could not believe what I was reading. It hit me pretty quickly that whats happening in the world of AI is not just an important topic, but by far THE most important topic for our future. So I wanted to learn as much as I could about it, and once I did that, I wanted to make sure I wrote a post that really explained this whole situation and why it matters so much. Not shockingly, that became outrageously long, so I broke it into two parts. This is Part 1Part 2 is here. We are on the edge of change comparable to the rise of human life on Earth. Vernor Vinge. What does it feel like to stand here It seems like a pretty intense place to be standingbut then you have to remember something about what its like to stand on a time graph you cant see whats to your right.

Imagine taking a time machine back to 1. When you get there, you retrieve a dude, bring him to 2. Its impossible for us to understand what it would be like for him to see shiny capsules racing by on a highway, talk to people who had been on the other side of the ocean earlier in the day, watch sports that were being played 1,0. This is all before you show him the internet or explain things like the International Space Station, the Large Hadron Collider, nuclear weapons, or general relativity. This experience for him wouldnt be surprising or shocking or even mind blowingthose words arent big enough. He might actually die. Uncle Adolf Full Movie Part 1' title='Uncle Adolf Full Movie Part 1' />But heres the interesting thingif he then went back to 1. And the 1. 50. 0 guy would be shocked by a lot of thingsbut he wouldnt die. It would be far less of an insane experience for him, because while 1. The 1. 50. 0 guy would learn some mind bending shit about space and physics, hed be impressed with how committed Europe turned out to be with that new imperialism fad, and hed have to do some major revisions of his world map conception. But watching everyday life go by in 1. Uncle Adolf Full Movie Part 1' title='Uncle Adolf Full Movie Part 1' />No, in order for the 1. BC, before the First Agricultural Revolution gave rise to the first cities and to the concept of civilization.

I have been asked by several regular viewers of the channel to put this up to keep interested parties informed on what is going on at Uncle Earls Classic TV Channel. Professor Neville Longbottom b. July, 1980 was a pureblood wizard, the only child and son. And then what if, after dying, he got jealous and wanted to do the same thing. If he went back 1. BC and got a guy and brought him to 1. BC, hed show the guy everything and the guy would be like, Okay whats your point who cares. For the 1. BC guy to have the same fun, hed have to go back over 1. In order for someone to be transported into the future and die from the level of shock theyd experience, they have to go enough years ahead that a die level of progress, or a Die Progress Unit DPU has been achieved. So a DPU took over 1. Agricultural Revolution rate, it only took about 1. The post Industrial Revolution world has moved so quickly that a 1. DPU to have happened. This patternhuman progress moving quicker and quicker as time goes onis what futurist Ray Kurzweil calls human historys Law of Accelerating Returns. This happens because more advanced societies have the ability to progress at a faster rate than less advanced societiesbecause theyre more advanced. William Patrick Hitler is the son of Adolf Hitlers halfbrother, Alois. His mother is Irish. He was born and reared in England. He is now in America with his mother. This works on smaller scales too. The movie Back to the Future came out in 1. In the movie, when Michael J. Fox went back to 1. TVs, the prices of soda, the lack of love for shrill electric guitar, and the variation in slang. It was a different world, yesbut if the movie were made today and the past took place in 1. The character would be in a time before personal computers, internet, or cell phonestodays Marty Mc. Fly, a teenager born in the late 9. Marty Mc. Fly was in 1. This is for the same reason we just discussedthe Law of Accelerating Returns. The average rate of advancement between 1. Soadvances are getting bigger and bigger and happening more and more quickly. This suggests some pretty intense things about our future, right Kurzweil suggests that the progress of the entire 2. He believes another 2. A couple decades later, he believes a 2. All in all, because of the Law of Accelerating Returns, Kurzweil believes that the 2. If Kurzweil and others who agree with him are correct, then we may be as blown away by 2. DPU might only take a couple decadesand the world in 2. This isnt science fiction. Its what many scientists smarter and more knowledgeable than you or I firmly believeand if you look at history, its what we should logically predict. So then why, when you hear me say something like the world 3. Cool. but nahhhhhhhThree reasons were skeptical of outlandish forecasts of the future 1 When it comes to history, we think in straight lines. Watch Big Eyes Online there. When we imagine the progress of the next 3. When we think about the extent to which the world will change in the 2. This was the same mistake our 1. Its most intuitive for us to think linearly, when we should be thinking exponentially. If someone is being more clever about it, they might predict the advances of the next 3. Theyd be more accurate, but still way off. In order to think about the future correctly, you need to imagine things moving at a much faster rate than theyre moving now. The trajectory of very recent history often tells a distorted story. First, even a steep exponential curve seems linear when you only look at a tiny slice of it, the same way if you look at a little segment of a huge circle up close, it looks almost like a straight line. Second, exponential growth isnt totally smooth and uniform. Kurzweil explains that progress happens in S curves An S is created by the wave of progress when a new paradigm sweeps the world. The curve goes through three phases 1. Slow growth the early phase of exponential growth2. Rapid growth the late, explosive phase of exponential growth3. A leveling off as the particular paradigm matures. If you look only at very recent history, the part of the S curve youre on at the moment can obscure your perception of how fast things are advancing. The chunk of time between 1. Microsoft, Google, and Facebook into the public consciousness, the birth of social networking, and the introduction of cell phones and then smart phones. That was Phase 2 the growth spurt part of the S. But 2. 00. 8 to 2. Someone thinking about the future today might examine the last few years to gauge the current rate of advancement, but thats missing the bigger picture. In fact, a new, huge Phase 2 growth spurt might be brewing right now. Our own experience makes us stubborn old men about the future. Skins Season 3 Episode 4 Pandora more. We base our ideas about the world on our personal experience, and that experience has ingrained the rate of growth of the recent past in our heads as the way things happen. Were also limited by our imagination, which takes our experience and uses it to conjure future predictionsbut often, what we know simply doesnt give us the tools to think accurately about the future. When we hear a prediction about the future that contradicts our experience based notion of how things work, our instinct is that the prediction must be naive. If I tell you, later in this post, that you may live to be 1.
