The upward spiral of artificial intelligence looks set to produce machines which are cleverer and more powerful than any humans. What happens when machines can themselves create super-intelligent machines? ‘The Singularity’ is the name science fiction writers gave to this situation. Philosopher David Chalmers discusses the philosophical implications with Nigel Warburton in the Philosophy Bites podcast: http://traffic.libsyn.com/philosophybites/David_Chalmers_on_The_Singularity.mp3
The next meeting of the Nottingham Philosophy Club is on 18th June starting at 7.30 pm – the location is: 34 Waldeck Road, Carrington, Nottingham NG5 2AF
