Artificial intelligence: is the ability to recognize artificial systems, patterns and redundancies, to complete incomplete sequences, to re-formulate and solve problems, and to estimate probabilities. This is not an automation of human behavior, since such an automation could be a mechanical imitation. Rather, artificial systems are only used by humans to make decisions, when these systems have already made autonomous decisions.

George Dyson on Artificial Intelligence - Dictionary of Arguments

Brockman I 37
Artificial intelligence/Dyson, George: The emergence of intelligence gets the attention of Homo sapiens, but what we should be worried about is the emergence of control. >Neural networks/George Dyson
, >Analog/digital/George Dyson, >Complexity/George Dyson.
Brockman I 39
You scan every book ever printed, collect every email ever written, and gather forty-nine years of video every twenty-four hours, while tracking where people are and what they do, in real time. But how do you capture the meaning? >Meaning/George Dyson.
We worry too much about machine intelligence and not enough about self-reproduction, communication, and control. The next revolution in computing will be signaled by the rise of analog systems over which digital programming no longer has control. Nature’s response to those who believe they can build machines to control everything will be to allow them to build a machine that controls them instead. >Complexity/George Dyson.
