gollark: We already have neural networks optimizing parameters for other neural networks, and machine learning systems are able to beat humans at quite a few tasks already with what's arguably blind pattern-matching.
gollark: One interesting (story-wise) path AI could go down is that we continue with what seems to be the current strategy - blindly evolving stuff without a huge amount of intentional design - and eventually reach human-or-better performance on a lot of tasks (including somewhat general-intelligency ones), while working utterly incomprehensibly to humans.I was going to say this after the very short discussion about ad revenue maximizers but left this half written and forgot.
