He is actually right about deep diving into a problem and solution and then walking away to receive inspiration automatically from your mind. This is a common practice for Engineers during design and functional requirements phase of developing an innovative solution.

In the video example ot sitting on chair and different chair types, can't a person program a code in deep learning expressing the process of sitting and afterwards simply apply it to different objects ?

@@Brightnight123 i also think like that , he said that we understand chair is something that we can sit on ,now if computer also get programmed like that they will also produce the same output as you , the difference between us computer is something else , our system is way more complex because our input is 5 senses plus the vivid memory while processor (intellect ) is likely the same . but then we are probably way more than that which we don't understand and will never may be like the memory where do it come from and probably the consciousness that we are aware of things. we are way more than intellect to be precise.

after that he goes on to show that forest and family example on board which again is slightly misleading because the input here is not just the figure on the board but his voice as well and our past memory and our already formed neural network. so there is so much more that just the diagram he is considering as input which currently is not replicable.

Understanding does not equate to freedom. When we learn for the sake of understanding, we realize that understanding itself has no finality. That is to say, learning is perpetual learning -- nothing else. Understanding is not some distinct state from the process of learning. We use models to understand phases in the process.

This is what my mind does automatically. It’s like a pattern recognition machine that finds sees how everything relates and synthesizes it all to produce the big picture. Knowledge and understanding comes out of silence. Keeping Quiet.

So fascinating and inspiring. I’m studying deep learning and brain, but being too familiar with how machine learning works makes me feel like that’s the way intelligence works as well, which is a great underestimation of our thought. The advice of relax, getting brain processing and generating ideas, making new connections, and constantly challenge our belief is very helpful. Really, do not think and work like an machine!

Woow This guy is truly amazing. The way he put the perspective into words is so amazing. Great ted talk

You have no idea how much interesting it is!!! Thank you sooooo much!!!

10:39 - The core point taken from this talk is to understand the difference between understanding and learning. Once you learn something there is a chance that you can 'unlearn' it later and change it but once you understand something you can't de-understood it. we understand very fast on the spot, we don' t need to do the processing. So deep learning is good but deep understanding is better.

We should show everyone both quality and quantity, before they are given a choice to choose. One way of showing people which one is better than the other, is through something called consequences.

Fantastic Talk! I’ve enjoyed a lot watching this talk. It has reminded me D. Hofstadter's Book "Surfaces and Essences" in which he defines Intelligence as the ability to get the point, the essence of any situation or reality. This would be at the heart of our ability to make "Analogies" (That book's second title being "Analogy as the Fuel and Fire of Thinking")

In my opinion consciousness is physical understandable by memories + the functional areas of our bodies, so what makes us different from everyone else (including twins) is going to be everyone's personal memories. Every part of the Central nervous system (in the same way as the rest as the body does) has its specific functions. An amazing property of the brain is the neuroplasticity, the fact that when we think it reacts changing the "highways"= dendrites between neurons. The limbic system (the emotional center) plus the frontal cortex (the brain's area for reasoning) interact constantly (in processing the inputs coming from the sensory and the motor areas) and they "work producing the memories". Memories are thought to be created in the hippocampus (located in the limbic system) and during sleep stored back to the cortex in form of consistent long-term memories. There are several types of "memories", like when we learn cycling or doing some movement, the "central processor" of the motor is the Cerebellum and it's believed it also stores these kind of memories, but I'm specifically referring to the memories that makes us who we are.

Very informative Ted talk so far 👏👏👏👏

As an electrical engineer I have had formal courses of IA and when doing them, I thought how smart it is but also how limited it are, as the video guy believed. But now seeing how much it has evolved and how much calculation power is available, I believe that real counscious IA is unavoidable. By the same process that give us intelligence and we don't really know how it works and how it rises from unintelligent beings (same as life had rise from inert molecules from the soil), IA is going to born by itself by "emergence" process, drived by our will to develope it, just because probability and the fact that random simple processes unavoidable leads to more complex ordered results if they are leaves to evolved by try-n-error selection algorithms.
