Reply to comment by nova9001 in UK, Italy and Japan team up to develop a new fighter jet that uses artificial intelligence by marketrent

A.i. does not exist yet. It's an algorithm made out of alot of if else, case/switch statements on which a machine learning model makes the decisions within the source code how to react or what actions to perform. It's all human curated, and mostly developed. A real AI will start without code, without inference learning and will learn on it's own like a baby would.

The world is run by algorithms. A.I. is just the marketing term they use as it sounds more fancy than 'algorithm'

That's like saying something doesn't exist because it is all just maths.

I'm saying that it does not exist because there does not exist a sentient computer or software in general in which we can have a human interaction. If there was, then it would be called an A.I.

Currently it's all machine learning.

Tell me something, how do you decide what to do next?

My decisions are made explicitly whenever my conscious combines beliefs and values in order to choose a course of action. They are made implicitly whenever one relies on a ritualized response (habit, tradition) to cope with a choice between options.

We train A.I. to make the same decision instead of the A.I. learning itself to create decision. We need to tell what the A.I. needs to learn and how it needs to create decisions while A human consciousness is more flexible and can even sometimes go against our beliefs and values.

I think you're romanticizing consciousness. We are logical creatures and we make logical choices, much like an AI is programmed to. Of course, we have the ability to pull a wild card, but that's just an inversion of the same logic, which is programmatically possible as well.

Your beliefs and values are the datasets you've been provided with, which you base your decisions on. If {statement} is true, then {something} else {something else} is quite an accurate summation of our own decision making process, regardless of how you want to pretend it is more than that.
