Where are machines taking us?

Still remember the heyday of Computing – the 60’s and the 70’s when the input was a punched card reader or a teletype. We have come a long way from then. From there we are in a mouse and keyboard input transitioning to voice. The future will be voice and thought interfaces. Your kids and their kids would think you are a ‘dodo’ for using a keyboard and mouse as the input.

AI algorithms have been aggregated and now provide just the intelligence within a dataset. Let me explain. Say there are 1 million pixels in a cat photo. AI algorithms doing CNN (Convolutional Neural Networks) can work on a subset of 1000 pixels which captures the essence of ‘cat’ to a great degree. This is further compressed to form ‘essential’ intelligence sets.

If you think that chatbots like ‘ChatGPT’ or ‘Gemini’ on our phones would be taking up too many resources, you are mistaken. At its core, ChatGPT is just 110 lines. This will be further compressed on the edge. Datasets would be scaled to provide only data that is pertinent and is of value. What will be required in the future is a high network connection. This will ensure that the content stays current and relevant.

We still are seeing biases in these Chatbots. Mistral the new contender is good but not free from bias. I think that machines themselves will have to get powerful enough and remove human aberrations. The talk is ‘on’ about ‘inference’ computing. This is a highly condensed intelligence capsule that has been produced using lots of iterations. These datasets can be used and reused till they lead to better inference engines.

The future of AI is in superfast algorithms with highly condensed datasets. Both the algorithms and datasets can have different levels (say 1 to 10) and they can be combined for varied performance and accuracy measurements. Machines in the future will not be requiring inputs from humans unless explicitly programmed as a part of AI ethics. This will lead us to a world of less bias and more perfection. However, a 100% score is a pipe dream.

Maybe one day a human and machine may get married and produce a child that is half human and half machine. And that will be when humans will have embraced machines as their counterparts – a species to co-exist with.

God Bless!
