Because humans “worship supreme understanding” some believe AI religion with a robot messiah will be hugely successful

Are humans prepared to worship anything? Is it true that there are people out there who can look at the many religions already being practiced, think that none of those apply to them, and look for yet another one to try to belong in? According to some researchers, the answer is yes. Indeed, the seemingly […]

Former DARPA exec to head shady Facebook project called “Building 8” centered around augmented reality and brain-scanning technology

As if things weren’t already bad enough for Mark Zuckerberg’s baby, Facebook (the world’s least trusted company at this point), now they are apparently working on a secret project behind the scenes that has nothing to do with social media, and everything to do with scanning people’s brains as part of a sinister artificial intelligence […]

Google employees finally wake up and realize they’re working for PURE EVIL… AI drone “terminator” project meets internal resistance

More than a dozen Google employees have quit working for the tech monolith in recent weeks as a response to the company’s forging ahead with a Terminator-esque artificial intelligence (AI) program that could end up weaponizing machine-learning technologies for use in military war games. Known as “Project Maven,” the Department of Defense (DoD) collaboration seeks […]

Big brother sees you! Chinese jaywalkers receive their fine immediately through SMS

Facial recognition technology is really starting to become a big deal in China. It wasn’t that long ago when Chinese traffic police began using facial recognition to nab those who were violating traffic laws. Now they’ve taken things one step further with artificial intelligence (AI): When the facial recognition cameras catch someone jaywalking, not only will […]

AI is the “enabling technology” for the coming global surveillance state… you will be watched by artificial intelligence

By the end of 2018, police departments across the United States will begin to use body cameras equipped with facial recognition, artificial intelligence (AI) technology. The technology is intended to scan all the faces in a crowd of people to help identify suspects and missing persons. The algorithm notifies an officer when their body camera […]

Japanese researchers create mind-reading A.I. that can transcribe a person’s thoughts

By now, you probably already know that artificial intelligence (AI) technology is developing at a remarkably fast rate. It has been the subject of many essays and news articles that are mainly about an oncoming robot takeover, which could mean trouble for many humans in the world today. But in order for advanced AI robots […]

Training AI to understand how people think: Google’s DeepMind is one step closer to “thinking” like humans… what could possibly go wrong?

AI machines or programs capable of understanding and executing human thought patterns have been a popular theme in sci-fi for decades. Countless movies and books have explored the possibilities of future AI — and most of it looks pretty darn grim for humans — and now Google’s DeepMind firm could be bringing what was once […]

Self-driving cars could easily turn into self-crashing cars that deliberately target and kill humans, expert warns

There has been a lot of hype surrounding self-driving cars and their potential to change the way humans use roads for a very long time. However, with all of the hope that they can change things for the better, there are also some reasons to fear for your safety while you’re in them. This is […]

Study finds Minority Report-style AI used by courts for the last 20 years to predict criminal repeat offenders is no more accurate than untrained people guessing

A new research paper, which studies the effectiveness of artificial intelligence (AI) in determining the likelihood of a convicted felon committing a crime, shows quite clearly that the software-based solutions available might not be so intelligent after all. To be more specific, research shows that dedicated AI programs designed to make certain risk calculations about […]

Facebook is stalking you: Creepy new patent demonstrates the lengths they go to “connect people” – such as studying photos to compare smudge marks that would indicate they were taken by the same lens

A Facebook patent filed in 2015 was found to go such great lengths as scrutinizing minute details contained in an image in order to connect people. According to reports, the patent was designed to analyze a photo’s details — such as dust, scratches or lens marks — and compare it against photos uploaded by another user. The patent was also purported […]
