The technological singularity hypothesis asserts that the invention of a synthetic intelligence with greater cognitive capacities than a human being will trigger an exponential increase in synthetic cognition and knowledge. Each generation of synthetic intelligences will be able to create new generations of cognitive beings with even greater capabilities than themselves. Some projections envision a future with superintelligences with millions or billions times the cognitive capability of human beings. This paper will argue that the primary function of cognition is to predict the future and make plans based on those predictions. Exponential increases in cognitive capability and knowledge do not necessarily result in exponential increases in the ability to predict and plan for the future.

The metaverse will be enabled, populated by and supported with artificial intelligence (AI). It will drive all seven technology layers of the metaverse: powering spatial computing, providing scaffolding to creators, and supplying new and sophisticated forms of storytelling. This article will give you a taste of some of these markets, and where we'll see it soonest. Few people realize how quickly AI is advancing. Let's take a look at the exponential growth of Deep Learning Transformers, a type of neural network that allows machines to work with natural language: The original Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) worked with 110 million parameters; the newest Google Brain transformer will go over 1 trillion parameters.

Jasmine Lawrence works with the Everyday Robots project from Alphabet's X moonshot factory. She thinks there's a lot of unanswered ethical questions about how to use robots and how to think of them: Are they slaves or tools? Do they replace or complement people? As a product manager, she said, confronting some of those questions can be frightening, and it brings up the question of bias and the responsibility of the creator. Lawrence said she wants to be held accountable for the good and bad things she builds.

As businesses integrate Artificial Intelligence into their systems, technology professionals are looking at a new frontier of AI innovation. This is in the area of Meta-Learning. Meta-Learning is simply learning to learn. We humans have the unique ability to learn from any situation or surrounding. We can figure out how we can learn.

To make new leaps in advancing artificial intelligence, AI would, as author Jun Wu puts it in Forbes, have to'learn to learn'. As Wu explains, "humans have the unique ability to learn from any situation or surrounding." Humans can adapt their process of learning. To be able to have such a flexible quality AI needs Artificial General Intelligence – it would have to learn about the learning process, what is called Meta-Learning. There is one very specific contrast in the learning process between humans and artificial intelligence.

A New Biology for a New Century Obstacles to an Exponential Increase in Synthetic Biology Productivity Machine Learning's Predictive Capabilities Machine Learning Needs Automation To Be Truly Effective Predictive Synthetic Biology Will Dramatically Impact Biology and Inspire Computer Science Biology has changed radically in the past two decades, transitioning from a descriptive science into a design science. The discovery of DNA as the repository of genetic information, and of recombinant DNA as an effective way to modify it, has first led into the development of genetic engineering and later the field of synthetic biology. Synthetic biology(1) goes beyond the historical practice of a biological research based on describing and cataloguing (e.g., Linnaean taxonomic classification or phylogenetic tree development), and aims to design biological systems to a given specification (e.g., production of a given amount of a medical drug or targeted invasion of a specific type of cancer cell). This transition into an industrialized synthetic biology is expected to affect most human activities, from improving human health, to producing renewable biofuels to combat climate change.(2) Some examples commercially available now include synthetic leather and spider silk, renewable biodiesel that propels the Rio de Janeiro public bus system, vegan burgers with meat taste, and sustainable skin-rejuvenating cosmetics.

In this paper, we introduce a new model for leveraging unlabeled data to improve generalization performances of image classifiers: a two-branch encoder-decoder architecture called HybridNet. The first branch receives supervision signal and is dedicated to the extraction of invariant class-related representations. The second branch is fully unsupervised and dedicated to model information discarded by the first branch to reconstruct input data. To further support the expected behavior of our model, we propose an original training objective. It favors stability in the discriminative branch and complementarity between the learned representations in the two branches. HybridNet is able to outperform state-of-the-art results on CIFAR-10, SVHN and STL-10 in various semi-supervised settings.
