The Hardest Part of Creating Conscious AI Might Be Convincing Ourselves It’s Real
As far back as 1980, the American philosopher John Searle distinguished between strong and weak AI. Weak AIs are merely useful machines or programs that help us solve problems, whereas strong AIs would have genuine intelligence. A strong AI would be conscious. Searle was skeptical of the very possibility of strong AI, but not everyone shares his pessimism.
Talvez a parte mais difícil de desenvolver uma IA consciente seja nos convencer de que ela é real
Um filósofo fala sobre como e se algum dia decidiremos se a IA é senciente e tem um consciência própria. Já em 1980, o filósofo americano John Searle distinguiu entre IA forte e fraca. As IAs fracas são meramente máquinas ou programas úteis que nos ajudam a resolver problemas, enquanto as IAs fortes teriam inteligência genuína. Uma IA forte seria consciente. Searle era cético quanto à própria possibilidade de uma IA forte, mas nem todos compartilham de seu pessimismo.

Armed police handcuff teen after AI mistakes crisp packet for gun in US A US teenager was handcuffed by armed police after an artificial intelligence (AI) system mistakenly said he was carrying a gun - when really he was holding a packet of crisps.

AI on the Hill
With tariffs, tax cuts, and court battles center stage in Washington, DC, it’s easy to lose sight of policy debates that capture less attention but will have profound effects. Artificial Intelligence (AI) developments are a case in point. After President Trump’s AI executive order pulled back Biden-era frameworks, companies are left wondering what to expect. Capitol Hill offers some clues. In this post, we highlight what you need to know about the common ground and fissures emerging.

California’s Climate Disclosures - New Legislative Developments
California legislature rejects Governor’s proposal to delay compliance with California’s landmark greenhouse gas emissions and climate-related financial risk reporting laws. Legislature also fails to enact expected updates to 2023 anti-greenwashing and voluntary carbon offsets disclosure law.

India shines through emerging market gloom
Emerging market equities have had a tough year. The Russian invasion of Ukraine saw the country excluded from most indices and Russian holdings removed from most funds. In addition, China — for so long the engine of both global and emerging market growth — has suffered from geopolitical tensions with the US, ongoing issues in its real estate sector and the impact of its zero-Covid policy.

What Does India Have To Offer Investors In 2021?
Emerging Markets David Cornell, 26 February 2021 As one of the world’s great emerging market economies, how should India figure in the portfolios of high net worth individuals, particularly when considering the risks and consequences caused not just by the pandemic, but also by changing patterns of global trade? India is a country that can sometimes flatter to deceive, given past promises of rapid growth and the hopes that came with the election of Narenda Modi half a decade ago.

Zero exposure to India is ‘the greatest mistake’
By International Adviser, 12 Feb 20 Does politics matter when fostering an economic recovery? There is the widely held opinion that India grows in spite of its politics and not because of it, says David Cornell, Ocean Dial Asset Management’s CIO for the India Capital Growth Fund. Over the past 50 years, the country has experienced strong successes despite battling with structural inefficiencies and corruption.

With such a high number of bright young things looking overseas for education, India has suffered from a ‘brain drain’.

Today marks the 10th anniversary of the final report of Liberia’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) on the abuses committed prior to and during Liberia’s 14 years of civil war.

Carl’s Jr Menu Sales Boosted More By Sexist Ads, Says Restaurant CEO
The Carl’s Jr. menu is among the greatest fast food draws in the Western United States, but the real draw isn’t primarily the food. This comes from CEO of CKE Restaurants Andrew Puzder, who has stated that sales for the restaurant have gone up since the introduction of sexist commercials. This could be disconcerting for feminist activists, as it appears their efforts to stop letting women be seen as sex objects may be in vain.
‘Middle Earth: Shadow Of War’ Gameplay Teaser Shows How It Will Expand On Mordor
The Middle Earth: Shadow of War gameplay teaser has revealed how the upcoming title from Warner Bros. Games will expand on what we know from its predecessor. Keep it in mind though, the gameplay shown was from the alpha version, which is far from finished. This possibly indicates an upgrade in graphics later on, as the visuals look almost identical to those in Shadow of Mordor.
Jeep Wrangler 2017 Could Be A Self Driving Car: Is An Electric Pickup Next?
The upcoming Jeep Wrangler 2017 model could be subject to the latest evolution in motor vehicles. It could be the first off-road self driving hybrid car. Technically, many auto enthusiasts have a tendency to believe that hybrids shouldn’t be off-road vehicles. This is because the power needed to climb things like rocks (or curbs if you live in more urban areas) could be a serious strain on the battery, defeating the purpose of an off-road vehicle.
Chuck Norris Dead At 71? Facts Say Grim Reaper Failed Despite Facebook Hoax
Is Chuck Norris dead at the age of 71? Though he is getting up in the years, the Facebook post gone viral is a false claim. The viral hoax claims it isn’t a joke, and it actually isn’t, from the right perspective. The site listed as hosting this story appeared to be legitimate, with the first part of the URL stating it as “world news” something. In the words of the Star Wars Mon Calamari Admiral Ackbar, it was a trap.
Nintendo Switch Skins, Stickers: Dbrand Says Don’t Buy Them, Explains Why
Nintendo Switch skins are probably a hot seller for gamers looking to get some quality time in on The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and maybe one of the other lesser-known titles. Dbrand, the manufacturer of console and controller skins, has offered a stern warning against buying those stickers and vinyl decals. Why would a manufacturer go out of their way to tell you not to buy their product?
‘Conan Without Borders:’ O’Brien’s ‘Made In Mexico’ Tickets Border Patrol
Conan Without Borders: Made in Mexico tickets border patrol and challenges ideals in the wake of Donald Trump’s wall proposal. O’Brien skit showed that you don’t even have to look Hispanic to be stopped and questioned, which could be seen as a positive message. Conan O’Brien is not a celebrity to hide behind the social norm like other late show hosts often do. Even “nice guy” Jimmy Fallon has taken more of a brutal edge with politics in his sketches, as has Stephen Colbert.
‘Beauty And The Beast’ 2017 Gay Moment Will Be A First For Disney
The upcoming Beauty and the Beast 2017’s openly gay moment is the next step in breaking new ground for Disney. This could be one of the most polarizing decisions in cinema since the Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal romantic drama Brokeback Mountain. Hollywood has made a lot of steps forward in recent years. The ever-increasing emergence of political correctness, as well as gender and cultural diversity, has made the film industry much more equal opportunity.
‘Santa Clarita Diet’ Reviews: Critics Agree It’s A Surprise Hit [Spoilers]
The Santa Clarita Diet reviews are in, and many critics are loving it. Stars Drew Barrymore (Charlie’s Angels, Donnie Darko) and Timothy Olyphant (Hitman, Live Free or Die Hard) team up in an ironically dark comedy which, despite having a horrific premise, looks like the cast of Fuller House could walk in at any moment. The story revolves around real estate brokers Sheila and Joel Hammond, who are initially struggling to sell a home.
Richard Gere Gerbil Myth Returns After Actor Slams Donald Trump’s Executive Order
We thought we’d heard the last of the rumor about Richard Gere and the infamous gerbil myth, but we were wrong. The actor has surfaced once more to ring in with his view on Donald Trump’s executive order concerning extreme vetting. Before Donald Trump inaugural speech had time to fade from our minds, he had begun signing a rather astounding number of executive orders. Some of them had been forgettable, while others not so much.
Impeachment Of Donald Trump, Swiss Meeting With Putin All Lies [Debunked]
The so-called pending impeachment of Donald Trump is as real as his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Switzerland prior to his election. Both turned out to be based on fake news. The running trend of fake news is becoming detrimental to the overall integrity of what we hear daily, and it doesn’t appear that any of it is going to stop until the sources quit twisting words to support an agenda.
‘Final Fantasy 7’ Remake: Photos From Monaco Magic 2017 Show Off New Style
The Final Fantasy 7 remake may be one of the most anticipated remakes of the year, and also one of the most polarizing. Photos released of the revamped title show that Square Enix isn’t pulling any proverbial punches when it comes to making Cloud and the gang look more realistic or amazing. One of the things most fans of the classic PlayStation version might not like about this remake is the fact that Square Enix is planning to release it in parts, much like what Telltale Games does.
‘Avengers” ‘Infinity War’ Cast: Who Is Set To Be In This Massive Ensemble?
Movies February 18, 2017 ‘Avengers” ‘Infinity War’ Cast: Who Is Set To Be In This Massive Ensemble? The Avengers: Infinity War cast is expected to be massive, as directors Anthony and Joe Russo have confirmed, with over 60 characters. While they didn’t specify that these characters would be all superheroes or simply extremely skilled humans like Black Widow, Hawkeye, and Nick Fury, that is still an impressive roster.
‘Watch Dogs 3’ Release Date Planned? What The Story, Gameplay Could Do
The Watch Dogs 3 release date may be inevitable, with the story possibly hinted in the final few seconds of the current game’s ending. A recent patch updated the ending to include two men talking about a worldwide hacker threat, and coordinates shown during this addition reveal a part of London. If London is where the game is set to take place, Ubisoft may opt to recycle the map from Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate, updated with semi-futuristic technology.
YouTube Ads: Blockers May Be Unnecessary In 2018 As Longer Unskippables Get Axed
YouTube ads tend to be the most annoying part of the experience for many regular viewers, hence the rise of ad blockers. These browser plug-ins, though the bane of online commerce, often make ads generally non-existent. They also cut into revenue for many sites, and many news sites have been updating their code to make articles inaccessible until you disable it.
The ‘Halo Wars 2’ Reviews Are Mixed, But Mostly Positive
The Halo Wars 2 reviews are coming in, and the critics are generally happy with it. In a time when RTS titles need to go all the way or stay in the realm of mediocrity, Microsoft’s latest proves that the genre can work well, even with a console controller. Real-time strategy games are often extremely complicated with their controls, utilizing the PC’s keyboard and mouse in creative ways which your average console controller just can’t match with up to about 16 potential buttons.
PlayStation Plus Free For One Week: Could Sony Open Up Multiplayer?
PlayStation Plus is free for a week starting today, so those of you who are skeptical of what a subscription will get you can see for yourselves. This means multiplayer games will work for everyone who has a PlayStation profile until January 23. If you’re a Trophy hunter who feels cheated every time a game requires you to play with others to get that elusive Platinum, this is your chance.
World War 3? Lebanese Entertainer Asked Donald Trump For Visa Before It Starts
World War 3 hasn’t happened yet, but many fear it will due to the election of Donald Trump as President of the United States. His statements during his election campaign, as well as one certain executive order, have made him a target for even legal immigrants to practice on. One such immigrant-hopeful, Lebanese singer Maya Diab, posted a tweet to the POTUS asking him to give her a visa before he starts the inevitable war.
NES Classic Edition Canceled? Retailer-Based Rumor Not True [Debunked]
Has the NES Classic Edition been canceled? According to a Nordic retailer’s Facebook post and someone who claims to work for them, it has. However, Nintendo has debunked this rumor, but it’s unclear exactly what is going on with the retailer who started it. When the miniature retro gaming console was announced last year, it sparked a frenzy of anticipation. For $60, you could get a console you can literally hold in your hand, a controller exactly like the original, and 30 games built in.
‘Predator’ Movie Casting Arnold Schwarzenegger Unlikely, Says Boyd Holbrook
The upcoming Predator movie cast isn’t likely to include the original star. Arnold Schwarzenegger might not return to play Dutch, the musclebound hero of the first film, according to star Boyd Holbrook. There is a lot of rumor circulating around the upcoming Predator film, from its cast to its status as a story.
PS4 Vs Xbox One: Pro ‘Sniper Elite 4’ Frame Rate Peaks At Double That Of Xbone
The latest in PS4 vs Xbox One comparisons come on the heels of Sniper Elite 4, which hit both consoles on Valentines Day. All relationship status jokes aside, the issue at hand is the frame rate on both consoles’ latest versions. A recent look into the differences between the consoles’ releases on said consoles’ latest versions has revealed that the Xbox One’s frame rate is often half of what is on the PS4 Pro.
‘For Honor’ Classes: Samurai Vs Viking Vs Knight, And Who Would Win… [Video]
Among For Honor‘s classes are some of the mightiest warriors in history. The Game Theorists, or at least the channel’s host, have done their homework to figure out who would win; A samurai, a knight, or a Viking. A death battle was staged, and this time Screw Attack‘s “Wiz” and “Boomstick” had almost nothing to do with it.
