To Protect AI From Attacks, Show It Fake Data (technologyreview.com) 34
AI systems can sometimes be tricked into seeing something that's not actually there -- remember when Google's software "saw" a 3-D-printed turtle as a rifle. At an event earlier this week, Google Brain researcher Ian Goodfellow explained how AI systems defend themselves. From a report: Goodfellow is best known as the creator of generative adversarial networks (GANs), a type of artificial intelligence that makes use of two networks trained on the same data. One of the networks, called the generator, creates synthetic data, usually images, while the other network, called the discriminator, uses the same data set to determine whether the input is real. Goodfellow went through nearly a dozen examples of how different researchers have used GANs in their work, but he focused on his current main research interest, defending machine-learning systems from being fooled in the first place.
[...] GANs are very good at creating realistic adversarial examples, which end up being a very good way to train AI systems to develop a robust defense. If systems are trained on adversarial examples that they have to spot, they get better at recognizing adversarial attacks. The better those adversarial examples, the stronger the defense.

Right up until China uses it to make their "social score" unbeatable, the US government and the big tech companies join up to combine targeted adverts with "counter-terrorism" ubiqutous surveilance, the UK uses it to make sure all of the country remains sex-free, the EU uses it to prevent "racist populist islamophobic" protests, and so on, and so forth.
The tech's cool, but the uses aren't, unless you're with the guys using it to increase their hold on power. So, are you with them, or against them?

I suspect the real answer to AI will be in the realm of biology, to grow systems that don't have the pesky problems of animal neural nets like lifespan

If you do not see the Artificial Intelligence of the Earth's Internet, you just fail to see, how you are plugged into it and are a part of that over reaching Artificial Intelligence, a bio computing unit adding it's processing power to the collective whole, kinda sucks to be used like that but it is just the way it is. The Earth's Internet just used your inputs to further process and drive to a goal as it did mine and as it will feed into others who will generate more inputs, producing more outputs, don't

Seriously, binary guy, what is your beef?
In every thread regarding any aspect of AI, you move the goal posts into a territory where they were not from the start (and nobody else attempts to place them), and then furiously start kicking. It about as meaningful - but not as entertaining to watch - as tab-vs-spaces debates.
My guess (and I may be wrong) is that you are not really stupid, but may have decent insights that you are just too frustrated to be able to formulate clearly. For your own sake, and for our

His beef is the same one every programmer has:
It isn't fucking "intelligence" -- it's Artificial Ignorance (A.I.) at best.
e.g. AlphaGo has NO concept of what a board is, what a stone is, what a player is, etc. It just following an algorithm. Go ahead and add a custom house rule and watch it crash-and-burn.
Here, I'll put it in simple terms you can understand:

Or the term Artificial Intelligence.
Yes, it is a misnormer in most cases. Get over it. It is just a badly selected term. Your suggestions are even worse since they are wrong or downright derisive, but I too would welcome better terminology. However, I think that if people are blinded by a name, they miss out on what is really behind it. I cringe a bit every time I say AI, but it is often the most understandable term I can find when discussing on a high level without going to technically specific. It is very
