I call it Artie, instead of AI, because that just looks like Al, to me.
This is a physics question, in a land without physics. Good article to read.
You set up a grid of switches that can turn off or on, depending on input, and you train it. You work blind. My hypothesis says there is a lot of wave dynamics involved, because I like wave dynamics.
The experiment sets up the switches so they give an optical signal when activated. You put in an image, and then a wave pattern shows up, most likely with interference. It produces a response and you zap it, or give it cookies. It lays in a permanent pattern, and responds correctly the next time.
With wave dynamics, you can explain actual neuron behaviour, and the Artie hallucination problems. Same thing happens with the human brain, but we put in a ton of impulse control. Don't you stand at a cliff and want to jump? Not really, that's an impulse from your inner brain and you swat it down like a fly.
Sooner or later, people will understand this with the Arties, and life gets better.
The other problem is what I said before, is that that this lowers the barriers for idiots. Just like massive emails, bogus spreadsheets, and endless stupid powerpoints, this allows reports. This was the last barrier, since idiots couldn't write anything. I shudder to think what my life in cubicle-land would have been with this crap. Can we build a real nuclear plant? No, because now you can't separate the idiots.
ps so all the work goes to consultants who have all the brains out getting money, and making phoney promises. The work all goes to lowest-level workers. However, now they can replace them with Artie, and we'll have nuclear power plants designed by arties, and no idea about the physics. I love it!
ps the nice thing about the old candu plants is that the hard part was getting the stupid thing to fizz. With the modern enriched plants, the hard thing is to get them to stop, and you don't have to get to that until an emergency, which you can convince yourself will never happen.
