Do you mean a world where there are all currently paid jobs are performed by robots? So there are robot military, police, doctors, nurses, teachers, politicians, judges, fire fighters, attorneys, robot-repair robots, robot-developing robots etc? This also includes anyone paid to control robots or paid to establish and maintain robot policies (they are also replaced by robots?). In your scenario, what keeps robots from evolving priorities that does not favour human?

A bar magnet is a simple permanent magnet with a north (N) and a south (S) pole. Bar magnets are not used in standard induction motors. (bold by me) Basic designs of induction motors do not contain permanent magnets. (If you wish to discuss other types of electrical motors please specify which design you are referring to)

Generally, that’s not an issue for me.

A bar magnet is a simple permanent magnet with a north (N) and a south (S) pole. Bar magnets are not used in standard induction motors. As far as I know standard induction motors rely on the interaction between the rotating magnetic field generated by the AC supply in the stator and the induced currents in the rotor to produce torque. Permanent magnets, such as bar magnets, are not part of this design because the motor operates based on electromagnetic induction principles, not on permanent magnetism. It seems you are combining technical terms in ways that do not follow textbook definitions or established engineering practices, making it difficult to understand your discussion.

If you quote some specific book we might be able to adress misconceptions or errors. The first phones did not digitize sounds. They transmitted analog signals. If you have a specific question about vintage phones and speakers I may provide some answers and practical insights about the signal chain from the microphone to the speaker. An possibly compare it to noice produced as a byproduct in lights and other electric appliances for additional insights. Are there any specific details you are curious about?

Good question! I did try and found related shapes such as Reuleaux triangle Rounded triangle Epitrochoids Deltoid But not the one I wanted.

This week, thanks to @joigus, I learned about squircles and some associated mathematics. A squircle is a shape intermediate between circle and a square. I got fascinated and then, for reasons unknown, curious about the possibility of a shape that is between a triangle and a circle. I searched and it was easy to find images but not names or mathematical definitions; "triangular squircle" is obviously not a good starting point in a search engine. But the search led me to the cool shapes generated by roulettes** and finally after some experiments the Hypotrochoid: A hypotrochoid is traced by a point attached to a circle of radius r rolling around the inside of a fixed circle of radius R, where the point is a distance d from the center of the interior circle. With parameters d=1, r=3, R=9 I get the triangular shape I was looking for: **) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roulette_(curve)

In which frame of reference is the observer? You seem to forget about relativity in your attempt at explaining relativistic effects.

No. You are mistaken; trivial to see per definition.

The heuristics applied by an expert may appear as bias to a layperson. (I haven't seen the the word heuristics so far in this discussion)

To my limited experience some factors that affects the price and the quality: -Human hair is usually more expensive that synthetic. -If fitting and adjustments are included in price or not. -Some online shops may be more expensive than the cheapest ones but include fitting at a local facility of choice without additional cost. -Breathable, lightweight caps may be more expensive and also comfortable. -Resistance to heat and chemicals; allowing for styling (blow dryers, curling irons ...) Note: a high quality wig may last longer than a cheap one; the average price per year of use may be important in the long run.

That seems to reflect a misconception about how scientists view their profession? Let's say someone discovers and confirms physics beyond relativity theories that could potentially allow for faster than light travel*. My guss is that it would trigger curiosity. A parallel from my profession: there are several fundamental theorems putting constraints on computational models and algorithms. Should one or more of these be shown to be invalid* that discovery would allow for many exiting breakthroughs in areas such as cryptography, communication or machine learning. The new possibilities would be exiting, no matter how much I hold on to the belief that the fundamental theorems are never to be proven** wrong. *) Not likely, just used as an illustration **) I use "proof" rather than "evidence" since for instance P vs NP problem is of mathematical nature.

There are several issues with the first sentence. For instance electrodeionization is, as far as I know, a water treatment technology and not a quantum phenomenon. (Note: If you use downvotes to my posts or other members it does not help you build arguments)

Wrong guess. Mathematics does not seem to be your thing, lets look for something else that may suit your style of conversation. Ok, Lets use emojis. 🍏🌐🎯 🌐🍏❌

Assumption from another thread that you aim for computational models running on currently available computer hardware; Any thoughts on how to get the resources needed to develop and run? Current state of the art machine learning requires quite a lot. Some old numbers from 2020; note that this supercomputer has not resulted in anything resembling AGI as far as I can tell: Reference https://news.microsoft.com/source/features/ai/openai-azure-supercomputer/#:~:text=The supercomputer developed for OpenAI,the top five%2C Microsoft says. That said, running a simple generative AI based software that generates text can be done on a consumer computer. It has nothing to do with developing intelligence but is useful in some contexts.

Ok. For your convenience here is a fe pictures then, illustrating the problem. First picture, what established theories and observations agree upon. On a large enough scale everything is moving away from everything else. The balloon analogy mentioned earlier illustrates this in three dimensions. here is a 2d drawing with earth (blue) in the center. dotted line represents the horizon we can't see beyond; the observable universe. ¨ Second picture; showing your invalid model with the observable universe very far from some large mass. White circle is the observable universe. Third picture let's zoom in on the observable universe, the white circle above: Since we are far away from the mass everything is virtually unaffected and if there is any movement everything move parallel, there is no expansion. and nothing is moving relative to earth so no movement can be observed. Therefore there are no arrows. This is what your (incorrect) model looks like when drawn using the earth frame of reference. Last picture; for your convenience your invalid model superimposed on what we observe. Note the difference. When we look in telescopes we see the movement represented by green dots, not the orange static circles your model suggests. .

Your question is complex and contains unresolved issues and active research. That is ar far as I know an unresolved question; the scientific community does not have a single, universally accepted formal definition of intelligence. Then we have to assume that intelligence* and cognition can be expressed mathematically in a way that is useful. There are attempts in for instance Computational Models of Intelligence and I am not aware of any consensus. You may want to look for work that uses Kolmogorov complexity and Markov blankets (I do not have any sources; tried and failed to locate an article I read some time ago) That assumes that Intelligence can be expressed in a model of computation. As far as I know the debate about whether all aspects of what we consider "intelligence" can be fully captured and replicated by computational systems is not settled. Examples to illustrate the complexity: You might be able to mathematically define some type of intelligence that performs well on a typical IQ test**. That does not mean the same mathematical definition is applicable to the intelligence required to : -construct new IQ tests -evaluate results of IQ tests -Ride a bicycle to the facilities providing the IQ test. -decide if it is appropriate to use an IQ test in a certain context; moral or ethical. (These examples are inspired by iNow's answer) *) Or intelligences, as @iNow correctly points out. **) such as those used by Mensa or other organisations

No. I pointed at the same thing as @Genady (although they formulated their response better)

Just curious: Do you mean to build one as a private initiative, keeping it secret, to be part of a team that manages to create the first one, or something else? Edit: just noted another thread providing details

Early I the thread I hinted at the issues with your model giving you opportunity to explain. But so far, as seen in the responses, each attempt att explaining or correcting introduces one or several new contradictions. Either just a geometrical impossibility or something fundamentally incompatible with observations, confirmed by multiple different methods. The result so far is a large pile contradicting random guesses connected by misunderstandings of current theories. But don't despair; open a thread in the mainstream section and ask a question such as: "Why does every application, however ingenious, of Newtonian mechanics fail to explain the universe's expansion?" Several members on this forum may be able to provide the answers in simplified terms. You seem to lack an intuitive feel for gravity and forces, maybe you should use mathematics instead of guessing? (edit, do what @Genady said) Hint: what happens to your proposed expansion once you get far away? Every arrow you have drawn is of almost equal length and (almos exactly) parallell. Again; contradicting the expansion you are trying to explain.

Intuitive answer; Study whatever gets you a job at one of the large companies that invests heavily in the area. Stay healthy and hope to live very long. Expect failure. Or study biology and philosophy; aim for AGI not based on current (currently hyped) concepts. Be prepared to fail. Assuming AGI=Artificial general intelligence

Your analogy is constructed so that someone with information deliberately hides it from someone else. What reason is there to believe the universe is constructed in such a way? 1: What does the arrows mean? acceleration? Is S1 moving outwards? 2: You base your idea on galaxies. According to observations galaxies do not expand, but the universe do. Your idea for an explanation of universe expansion is simply not logical (in addition to the obvious mathematical issues explained by other members)

That seems to contradict both observations and your title of this thread?

Good points; I had not taken your recent exchange into account. I would add the option of "AI overconfidence" for lack of a formal word or definition. A user may participate in a discussion in good faith with no malicious intend but is unable to interpret, internalise or curate AI / LLM output for the context. Side note; I used an LLM to generate a definition of this option and this is the output: The act of using automated tools, such as language models, to generate content on topics beyond one's expertise, which is then presented as knowledgeable input. This behavior is characterized by a significant reliance on technology to simulate expertise or competence, without the individual possessing the necessary understanding or skills to assess the accuracy, relevance, or context-appropriateness of the generated content.

Copyright does not protect ideas, concepts, systems, or methods of doing something*. You might want to open a separate thread. Your new pictures seem to have the same issues that I hinted at in my picture (and that @joigus helped highlighting). Objects that we observe accelerating away from each other seem to get closer in your model. The universe is not one dimensional. The universe is also not a flat disk as a spiral galaxy. Hint: look at how the stars move in a (flat) galaxy disk versus the movement of matter in a rotating sphere. There are other issues but this one is pretty simple to explain and discuss, hence my initial focus on this. *) https://www.copyright.gov/help/faq/faq-protect.html#:~:text=Copyright does not protect ideas,your written or artistic work.
