According to the Global Artificial Intelligence Index recently published by Tortoise Intelligence, total investment in artificial intelligence rose to a record $77.5 billion last year 2021, compared to $36 billion in 2020.

Global AI software revenue is expected to reach $62.5 billion in 2022, an increase of 21.3% over 2021, according to the business-standard platform recently.

minor artificial intelligence

All artificial intelligence systems in use today have one thing in common, which is that they are all designed as vertically controlled single electronic complexes, and operate using algorithms of varying complexity. Central control is an irresistible characteristic of any man-made electronic computing system. We know how to build in another way.

But what if we simulate nature, that is, instead of making an integrated electronic system that is controlled vertically, that we follow the path of harmonious integration followed by nature, where all organisms complement each other, then we build a new electronic system in which coexistence between the human brain and the computer, and this perhaps It is the shortest and most effective way to modernize smart systems to become more intelligent and to effectively coexist between humans and machines, as Dr. Alexander Kostikov mentioned in his important research aimed at creating an unusual new type of artificial intelligence, which he published on the TechTalks platform recently.

new artificial intelligence

In this way, we will have a new type of artificial intelligence, a hybrid electronic and biological, in which the living human brain and the machine will work together in a dual integrative system, and both components will complement and support each other, creating something completely new that neither nature nor the designers of electronic systems have fully produced before, It is a single new type of artificial intelligence built around a "Neuro Computer Interface" that directly connects neurons in the human brain and a computer, according to the TNW News platform, which published the most important findings in the research. Dr. Kostikov finally.

How will the Neural Computer Interface work?

Despite the amazing prospects of this direction, there have been only a few attempts in the world to create an interface that connects the human brain with a computer directly, the most famous of which is Elon Musk's famous attempt "Neuralink".

The weakness of these projects is that they follow the traditional surgical path, and as a result fail to overcome two main obstacles, namely:

The first obstacle

: the inaccuracy of the individual interpretation of local foci of brain activity.

Simply put, the brain of each of us is a unique brain. For example, if we try to identify a group of neurons responsible for specific functions performed by the brain, these cells differ from one person to another, but this is only half the problem, and the most difficult of that is that the detailed picture Brain activity is constantly changing.

The second obstacle

: It is the main obstacle, which is the "signal crossover point", that is, the place where the artificial electronic signal is transformed into a human biological nerve impulse, and vice versa, that is, the point at which signals (information) are exchanged between the machine or the machine. The computer and the human brain.

To solve these obstacles, in the new AI system, the transmitting and receiving parts of the neural computer interface will be completely separated, and in fact there will be two completely different mechanisms for communication, as Kostikov mentioned in his research.

From living biological tissue to silicon and back

The receiving part (responsible for receiving the signal from biological tissues) will be a network of inactive organisms that are tiny "beacons" embedded in living tissue, the status of which will be remotely monitored by a scanner.

The beacon is a biologically neutral molecular structure - it can be likened to radio signal receivers - that changes its harmonic state in the presence of a weak electrical charge near it (a nerve cell in the stage of pulse generation), and this technology will allow sending signals that carry information from living neurons of humans to the computer, and in this Technology We will not have to perform painful surgeries, as was the case previously, to implant slices in the brain, for example. All that is required is to inject molecular beacons into the body using a simple intravenous injection.

The part of the computer sent to the biological tissue would only send the signal from a distance to the synapses, not to the neurons as they are now trying.

Interestingly, according to Kostikov, the signal that will be transmitted only to the synapses must be of a non-electrical nature, and this will allow us to generate an artificial signal (impulse) in the neurons of the brain that is completely identical to the physiological signal, as the brain tissue itself will build a connection with the interface transmission structure.

In addition, people will not need to use doctors or nurses to install the neural computer interface, which makes this system suitable for most users.

What do the "Matrix" and the new artificial intelligence have in common?

In the famous movie "The Matrix", humans live in a matrix or computer system in which they cannot distinguish between real and virtual reality, and in which the two are completely fused.

In the new artificial intelligence system that we are talking about, the same thing happens. The bandwidth of the neural computer interface will transfer to the human brain an artificial reality that is completely indistinguishable from the physiological reality, and in this system you will not only be able to see, hear and feel the artificial reality, but you will also be able to Move in it in the same way as in the real physical world.

No words, no letters, no languages

Kostikov asserts that thanks to the new type of neural computer interface, the brain and the computer will be able to exchange data directly, without using intermediate communication protocols such as voice commands or letter codes, as the brain and computer will exchange information using a set of impulses with direct meaning, and as a result, the interaction with The machine is more like intuition or just thinking than an interaction with an electronic device, and the mutual adaptation of the components (brain and machine) will take between several months to one year, but it will completely cross the barrier of language and even literacy, which means that an illiterate who cannot read and write can use New Personal Artificial Intelligence System.

personal artificial intelligence

The new AI will be individual or more personal, not only because it is designed to work with only one user, but also because it will be the result of a direct adaptive interaction of the learning software package with the living brain of a particular person.

Indeed, a machine that gradually adopts the behavioral habits of a particular person will become the artificial (unconscious) reflex part of that person, while the biological brain that gets used to the machine will increasingly rely on the capabilities of the computer system.

All in all, thanks to the imperceptible but continuous work of the neural computer interface, we will see a completely new type of artificial intelligence, Kostikov explains.

A new kind of magic

Specialists believe that the human brain is very slow, and its ability to process and analyze a huge amount of information is weak, but this brain has flexibility, creativity and creative thinking, which are things that computers do not have.

On the other hand, computers not only process information faster than us, but - in fact, in terms of their ability to send signals - they exceed biological tissues by 3 million times!

Add to this the massive digital memory that is clearly and without fail capable of handling unimaginable amounts of digital data, with the ability to easily enter into direct communication with any technical device in the vicinity or the Internet.

All this indicates that combining the human brain and computer system into one complex of artificial intelligence will not only increase its overall efficiency, but will create a completely unusual new system of artificial intelligence, and through this combination of brain and machine we will see a new type of magic that did not exist It has no precedent in history.

Why do we need this system now?

Kostikov believes that the main reason is the massive explosion of information, as the volume of digital data on the Internet doubles every 18 months. From 1997 to 2002, humanity produced more information than it did in its entire previous history.

Now, the same amount of data is produced in just a few months, meaning that humanity as a consumer of information is catastrophically behind, and this imbalance is growing literally every minute.

It is this fact that opens an opportunity for new technology.

Your personal AI system will give you the ability to analyze the full range of information available on the Internet, not just what's on the first page of Google search results, for example.

And the information consumption of a person equipped with his own artificial intelligence will be thousands of times greater than that of traditional information consumption based on biological communication systems.

In fact, we are not talking about a new artificial intelligence only, but about a new superhuman that is armed with a huge amount of information and knowledge, and is able to communicate and communicate at any time and place, and there will be no obstacles in its way.

Does this mean that we are talking about Superman Nietzsche?

It's much more than that, Superman Nietzsche is just a kid compared to the new human, or at least that's what enthusiasts of this kind of personal artificial intelligence see.
