AI: Not Conscious, but UNPREDICTABLE!
AI: Not Conscious, but UNPREDICTABLE makes for a dangerous cocktail!
AI is obviously NOT conscious. To be con-scious one needs something ELSE to go with the science... At least etymologically speaking. But the science of AI fully explains AI, there is no need for anything else to go with the knowledge. Present AI, Large Language Models, LLM, all about finding gradients in extremely high dimensional spaces
Another type of AI is possible: WMs: World Models, where the AI basically learns physics. WMs will be superior to LLMs for most applications beyond Internet searches.
Consciousness requires the feeling of existing: present day AI do not have this capability, all the more because we do not know what it consists of.
The smallest known structures in the brain are Dendritic Nano Tubes, DNTs, and they are of the order of 100 nanometers across… 1000 atoms wide (molecules causing Alzheimer squeeze through them). At a scale ten times smaller, Quantum effects will appear. It is likely that they will play a crucial role in consciousness. Why? Because at this sort of scale, Quantum effects are going to appear, first of all (there are libraries of geometries and the Casimir Effect they bring… At the ten nano scale, so not only will there be Quantum effects, but Quantum Field Theory effects, and the dynamics of vacuum… Turns out the soul’s material is vacuum energy… Something like that is looming… It’s curious that QFT is not vibrating more in the collective consciousness… Obviously a problem with the High Energy physicists’ lack of elocution or imagination…)
Present day AI rests on electronics which work like canal systems (canals carrying electrons, not water molecules)… Quantum effects caused by said electrons are deliberately obliterated so that “semiconductors” can behave like classical canal systems.
The Quantum Computer, QC, is the exact opposite: far from avoiding Quantum effects, they are maximally exploited to compute with. The QC rests on entanglement, nonlocality and a new property called “magic” (basically what classical entanglement can’t duplicate)..
If Twenty-first Century technology can do it, it would be naive to believe that evolution did not get there first, especially since Quantum effects have been shown to play a direct role in neurology already (for example in birds seeing the Earth magnetic field).
Thus, if we want consciousness, we need the QC.
QC will enable us to create AC, Artificial Consciousness.
***
A different question is whether present AI can SIMULATE consciousness. The answer is obviously yes. Confusing this simulation with a creature with (Quantum) consciousness is the AI DELUSION. Dawkins who wrote a book called the God Delusion is himself suffering from an arguably worse condition, the AI Delusion. It’s worse because AI as we have it, is just classical canal engineering and smart high dimension calculus… There is no mystery whatsoever. .
***
Even though the AI we have now are not conscious, and can’t be conscious, they are still unpredictable. I actually have a mathematical PROOF of this (using mathematics and logics from the 1870-1940 period…).
That makes uncontrolled AI a potential master of humanity.
Lest we be very smart and careful…

Coming soon to a neighborhood near you… Robot contemplates Valles Marineris on the equator of Mars, 10 kilometers deep… The colonization of Mars will be initially driven by AI… Next NASA Mars mission will be propelled by a nuclear engine, and three AI helicopters will fly away with supersonic blades before hitting the ground… And communicate with Earth through overhead satellites…

Quantum Computer Operations are extremely expensive and can solve only certain type of problems.
1-40 MWs for a basically analogous computer?? Forget it!

#techniek #wetenschap #uitleg #video #quantumcomputer
Een mooie uitleg hoe een algoritme op een quantum computer eigenlijk werkt, aan de hand van Grovers algoritme voor NP problemen.
Dit gaat niet over de fysieke implementatie maar vergelijkt het op logisch niveau met een klassiek algoritme. Kijk ook de vervolg video voor extra uitleg en een mogelijk misverstand als je alleen de eerste keek.

"Wat is een quantumcomputer?"
-> "Quantumcomputers maken gebruik van qubits. Deze kunnen niet alleen nul óf een zijn, maar ze kunnen zich ook in meerdere mogelijke toestanden tegelijkertijd bevinden. Daardoor kunnen quantumcomputers meerdere berekeningen tegelijk parallel aan elkaar uitvoeren"

Google Willow: The secrets of the world’s most powerful quantum computer
Inside the sub-zero lair of the world’s most powerful computer
By Faisal Islam, Economics editor
Inside the secretive lab which stores the world’s most powerful computerIt looks like a golden chandelier and contains the coldest place in the known universe.
What I am looking at is not just the most powerful computer in the world, but technology pivotal to financial security, Bitcoin, government secrets, the world economy and more.
Quantum computing holds the key to which companies and countries win – and lose – the rest of the 21st Century.
In front of me suspended a metre in the air, in a Google facility in Santa Barbara California, is Willow. Frankly, it was not what I expected.
There are no screens or keyboards, let alone holographic head cams or brain-reading chips.
Willow is an oil barrel-sized series of round discs connected by hundreds of black control wires descending into a bronze liquid helium bath refrigerator keeping the quantum microchip a thousandth of a degree above absolute zero.
It looks, and feels, very eighties, but if quantum’s potential is realised, the metal and wire jellyfish structure in front of me will transform the world, in many ways.
“Welcome to our Quantum AI lab,” says Hartmut Neven, Google’s Quantum AI chief, as we go through the high security door.
Neven is something of a legendary figure, part technological genius, part techno music enthusiast, who dresses like he has snowboarded here straight from the Burning Man music festival – for which he designs art. Perhaps he has, in a parallel universe – more on that later.
His mission is to turn theoretical physics into functional quantum computers “to solve otherwise unsolvable problems” and he admits he’s biased but says these chandeliers are the best performing in the world.
Faisal Islam was shown around a Google facility in Santa BarbaraSecret temple of high science
Much of our conversation is about what we are not allowed to film in this restricted lab. This critical technology is subject to export controls, secrecy and is at the heart of a race for commercial and economic supremacy. Any small advantage, from the shape of new components to the companies in global supply chains, is a source of potential leverage.
There is a notable Californian vibe in this temple of high science, in its art and colour. Each quantum computer is given a name such as Yakushima or Mendocino, they are each wrapped in a piece of contemporary art, and various graffiti-style murals adorn the walls illuminated by the bright winter sun.
Neven holds up Willow, Google’s latest quantum chip, which has delivered two important milestones. He said it settled “once and for all” the discussion about whether quantum computers can do tasks that classical computers can’t.
Willow also solved a benchmark problem in minutes that would have taken the best computer in the world 10 septillion years, so more than a trillion trillion, or one with 25 zeros on the end, more than the age of the universe.
This theoretical result was recently applied to the Quantum Echoes algorithm, impossible for conventional computers, which helps learn the structure of molecules from the same technology used in MRI machines.

Quantumveilige cryptografie: nieuw onderzoek biedt tips
Organisaties moeten nu in actie komen om tijdig te kunnen migreren naar quantumveilige cryptografie. De 1e stap is een inventarisatie van de cryptografische middelen die je organisatie gebruikt. Maar hoe doe je dit op de juiste manier? Een onderzoek van TNO geeft organisaties inzicht in de mogelijkheden én onmogelijkheden van commercieel beschikbare tooling.
Want welke technologie kun je inzetten voor zo’n inventarisatie? En zijn er al producten beschikbaar? Deze vragen zijn niet alleen actueel vanwege de dreiging van de quantumcomputer op cryptografie. Ze zijn ook relevant door de maatregelen die organisaties moeten nemen in het kader van de NIS2-richtlijn.
Cryptographic Asset Discovery & Inventory tooling
Dit onderzoek naar zogenoemde Cryptographic Asset Discovery & Inventory tooling gebeurde in opdracht van het Nationaal Cyber Security Centrum (NCSC), het ministerie van Economische Zaken en CIO-Rijk.
Het resultaat en de inzichten lees je in het rapport Cryptographic Asset Discovery and Inventory.
