Garry Kasparov Quotes

Although we will hate and fight the machines, we will be supplanted anyway, and rightly so, for the intelligent machines to which we will give birth may, better than we, carry on the striving toward the goal of understanding and using the Universe, climbing to heights we ourselves could never aspire to.

The programmers have another saying: 'The question of whether a machine can think is no more interesting than the question of whether a submarine can swim.'

With the increasingly important role of intelligent machines in all phases of our lives--military, medical, economic and financial, political--it is odd to keep reading articles with titles such as Whatever Happened to Artificial Intelligence? This is a phenomenon that Turing had predicted: that machine intelligence would become so pervasive, so comfortable, and so well integrated into our information-based economy that people would fail even to notice it.

If a machine is expected to be infallible, it cannot also be intelligent.

The question of whether a computer can think is no more interesting than the question of whether a submarine can swim.

If the history of resistance to Darwinian thinking is a good measure, we can expect that long into the future, long after every triumph of human thought has been matched or surpassed by 'mere machines,' there will still be thinkers who insist that the human mind works in mysterious ways that no science can comprehend.

I will argue that in the literal sense the programmed computer understands what the car and the adding machine understand, namely, exactly nothing.

There is a real danger that computers will develop intelligence and take over. We urgently need to develop direct connections to the brain so that computers can add to human intelligence rather than be in opposition.

A computer would deserve to be called intelligent if it could deceive a human into believing that it was human.

We could construct a machine that is more intelligent than we can understand. It's possible Google is that kind of thing already. It scales so fast.

Not only have computers changed the way we think, they've also discovered what makes humans think - or think we're thinking. At least enough to predict and even influence it.

The idea [of the Quantum Computer] is to create a machine that is as intelligence as humans, and probably much more so.

Machines are what enable the human race to move forward and up, and machines have always been physical,. Computers are the first devices that actually help the mind.

I just thought making machines intelligent was the coolest thing you could do. I had a summer internship in AI in high school, writing neural networks at National University of Singapore - early versions of deep learning algorithms. I thought it was amazing you could write software that would learn by itself and make predictions.

In order to be truly intelligent, computers must understand - that is probably the critical word.

When we have machines that are as intelligent - and then twice as intelligent - as we are, there is no reason why that relationship cannot be synergistic rather than antagonistic.

We will not only use the machines for their intelligence, we will also collaborate with them in ways that we cannot even imagine.

We cannot blindly pursue the goal of machine intelligence without pondering its consequences.

I'm really interested in the new nonfiction. I think the hyper-digital culture has changed our brains in ways we cannot begin to fathom.

Since the beginning of the computer age, there has been immense development in computer intelligence but exactly zero development in computer consciousness.

'Detroit' started based on a book called 'The Singularity is Near' by Ray Kurzweil, which is about this idea that one day there could be machines that are more intelligent than we are.

Artificial intelligence is the science of making machines do things that would require intelligence if done by men.

The real question is not whether machines think but whether men do. The mystery which surrounds a thinking machine already surrounds a thinking man.

The original question, 'Can machines think?' I believe to be too meaningless to deserve discussion.

And once an intelligent robot exists, it is only a small step to a robot species - to an intelligent robot that can make evolved copies of itself.
