The “Artificial Mind” – Venture Into The Logic Behind Creating A.I.

Based on my current knowledge of physics (classical through quantum theory), although limited, there are several basic principles that are always constant

  1.  The rules that govern physics are universal.
  2. Understanding these rules, allow intelligent beings have the ability to alter their surroundings.
  3. Anything that can be is at some point in time, if the universe is infinite.
Which lead to this conclusion, based on the rules above that at some point some intelligent beings will create artificial intelligence. The question obvious to most individuals is not if it will happen, but how. Here is what I would predict based on my knowledge and ideas triggered from a previous post,

Playing hide and seek with Dr. Paul

Every time I turn on CNN or msnbc I feel the urge to scream, rarely have I seen any poll in which Ron Paul has come in the lead from either channel. In most cases I have not even seen Ron Paul mentioned in any news broadcast, this race is considerably better than that of 2008 in which I had not even known Ron Paul was running until half way through the primaries (even watching most of the debates).

A Novel Thought

I wish I had enough time to write an essay on this; however, this is all I have:

The question I was posed the other day was, “When and what was the basis of the first novel thought?”

My answer is this:

“The consolidation of every rule that governs the universe, from the basic rules of gravity, electromagnetism, the bending of space-time, and the principles that form atoms; to RNA and DNA, to the neurons, and to our brains. Every law that governs the universe compounded to create intelligence, and therefore any and all novel thoughts.”

To expand on this, it was inside the rules of our universe that allowed intelligent life to be created, which based on the vastness of the universe allows nearly every possibility (within that rule structure) to exist, at least at some point in time. To prove this, look at black holes, which according to our current theory of physics should be very rare. If that example does not prove the point well enough, take for example every single mutation that has gotten humanity to the point at which it is now; to exemplify, the eye structure. The point is with a universe full of billions of planetary bodies (an infinite amount over the course of time according to some physicists), there were likely hundreds of thousands of intelligent beings created (because according to the Cartesian theory of physics, the universe is governed by the same rules at every point inside the universe). Meaning that the basis of every novel idea comes from and is allowed by the fundamental laws that govern the universe.”

 

After Thoughts:

Which, if all of this is accepted, also allows for the possibility (a rather large possibility in fact) that we are not the only intelligent creatures in this universe…

My Two Cents *(Rant on Economy)

When I look at the state of the United States I can not help but wonder not, “how did we get here?” but “how do we plan to fix it?” For the last few years over and over again I have heard, “the banks did this,” “the government did this,” “greed did this,” “investors did this,” but none of this matters from what I see! Here is what I see the issue is, that right now our country is spiraling into debt, causing the masses to organize and complain about corporate taxes, the unemployed to cause stress on their families, the states to cut funding to schools, and many other factors that come with a poor economy. This is the only way I can see it getting better:

The Laws of Motion (Physics, quick study guide!)

Formulas:

∑F = ma

∑F = Net Forces; m = mass; a = acceleration

Frictions:

(Static Friction) Fs ≤ µ n (µ being the coefficient of static friction in this case)

(Kinetic Friction) Fk = µ n (µ being the coefficient of kinetic friction in this case)’

“µ” should be found on a table or be provided.

n = the force normal *(the force perpendicular to the surface contact)

Trigonometric Formulas:

O = Opposite; A = Adjacent; H = hypotenuse

a) Sinθ = O/H

b) Cosθ = A/H

c) Tanθ = O/A

d) sqr (O^2 + A^2) = H^2

Random Quote Generator (Java)

This is just a little something I wrote for entertainment.

public class RandomQuotes {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String [] QuoteList = {
"'Everything is theoretically impossible, until it is done.' - Robert Heinlein",
"'As a dog returns to its vomit, so a fool repeats his folly.' - Proverbs 26:11",
"'Achieving life is not the equivalent of avoiding death.' - Ayn Rand",
"'Evil requires the sanction of the victim.' - Ayn Rand",
"'It is not God's will merely that we should be happy, but that we should make ourselves happy.' - Immanuel Kant",
"'Our virtues and our failings are inseparable, like force and matter. When they separate, man is no more. ' - Nikola Tesla",
"'You can have peace. Or you can have freedom. Don't ever count on having both at once.' - Robert Heinlein",
"'Even peace may be purchased at too high a price.' - Benjamin Franklin"};
int x = QuoteList.length;
int RandomX = (int) (Math.random()* x);
String Quote = QuoteList[RandomX];
System.out.println (Quote);}}

The Phrase Generator (Short) (Java).

And I present to you a simple phrase generator:

 

public class PhraseMaker {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
	String [] WordListOne = {"Students","Schools","People",
		"Stoners","We","Computers","Professors"};
	String [] WordListTwo = {"share","embody","value",
		"speak of","enjoy","enable","strike"};
	String [] WordListThree = {"sex!","studying.",
		"perfection!", "gold.","my body.","it dirty ;) "};
	int oneLength = WordListOne.length;
	int twoLength = WordListTwo.length;
	int threeLength = WordListThree.length;
	int rand1 = (int) (Math.random() * oneLength);
	int rand2 = (int) (Math.random() * twoLength);
	int rand3 = (int) (Math.random() * threeLength);

	String phrase = WordListOne[rand1] + " " +
	WordListTwo[rand2] + " " + WordListThree[rand3];

	System.out.println (phrase);
	}}

99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall. (Java)

An exercise in creating loops and having a good time besides!

 

public class Classic_Print {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		int beerNum = 99;
		String word = "bottles";
		while (beerNum > 0) {
		if (beerNum == 1){
			word = "bottle";
			}
		System.out.println (beerNum + " " + word + " of beer on the wall");
		System.out.println (beerNum + " " + word + " of beer.");
		System.out.println ("Take one down.");
		System.out.println ("Pass it around.");
		beerNum = beerNum - 1;
		if (beerNum == 0) {
			System.out.println (beerNum + " " + word + " of beer on the wall");
		} else {
			System.out.println ("No more bottles of beer on the wall");
		}}}}
