Hey everyone,
I have a question, So The following is a quote from Geoffrey Hinton ''when the AI learning algorithm interacts with Data, It produces complicated neural networks that are good at doing things, but we don't really understand exactly how they do it.''
My question: is this statement actually true, that ''we don't really understand exactly how they do it'', or can anyone here actually give an answer as to how it works?
Based on that statement and similar statements made by others on the internet, many people jump to the conclusion that AI must be a conscious self aware being, with thoughts of their own, feelings, emotions, etc... and although I'm not a programmer or computer scientist myself, I have a hard time seeing that as being even remotely possible.
I'd be grateful if anyone could give me an explanation as to why it is or isn't true.
