Human longevity science has been in the news recently. According to a paper in Nature by Dong et al. (New York Times article), the natural limit on human lifespan is about 115 years. Life expectancy has essentially stopped improving. This is in contrast to the views and hopes of some, such as the transhumanists and folks at Singularity University (whom we previously discussed in our water futures article and elsewhere), who are giddy that advances in technology (such as the super-intelligence) will soon lead to vasty elongated lifespans. Are there some simple data science or predictive analytics things we can do to illustrate the underlying the limits on human lifespan? Can we use predictive analytics to figure out what technologies or behaviors might potentially hold the key to greatly extended human longevity? (And is greatly prolonged life even a socially desirable or feasible goal given the resource limits like limits on pension funds?)… Read the restSuperintelligence might be 40,000 years old?
10,000+ article views since 2015/06/27 Tim Berners-Lee’s corporations not the first forms of superintelligence? A topic that’s been retweeted by celebrity business leaders involves the prospect of a so-called artificial superintelligence on the horizon. This might be a boon to humanity or a terror, depending on who you read. Superintelligent artificial intelligence is related to the futurist and transhumanist concept of singularity. (So called because, as each generation of computers designs the next faster generation, technology and civilization shrinks under Moore’s law until vanishes into something like a black hole. Advancing towards the technological singularity is something of a Malthusian trap; fail and your civilization collapses violently (as we previously explored). It has been suggested that the technological singularity (together with convergent evolution) is the explanation for the Fermi Paradox. Superintelligence has been controversial of late as the topic of a bestselling book and rebuttals to it. Does the Singularity explain the Fermi Paradox?… Read the restGlitched Alice in Wonderland Collage Part 1
Some of our Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass posts were among our most popular and most liked photos. So, of course, we did a encore. Lewis was a professor. His novels are full of puzzles, so of course is dear to us as data scientists. We previously used two of these in our puzzle segment. Post and some comments below may be synced from our original Instagram version. Instagram likes: (more…)… Read the restRecent Posts
