Richard Feynman: Can Machines Think?



Lex Clips

This is a Q&A excerpt on the topic of AI from a lecture by Richard Feynman from September 26th, 1985.

This is a clip on the Lex Clips channel that I mostly use to post video clips from the Artificial Intelligence podcast, but occasionally I post favorite clips from lectures given by others. Hope you find these interesting, thought-provoking, and inspiring. If you do, please subscribe, click bell icon, and share!

  1. This is a Q&A excerpt on the topic of AI from a lecture by Richard Feynman from September 26th, 1985. I found it very interesting and hope you do as well. Watch the full lecture in the description. Subscribe to this channel for more clips.

  2. The problem he is referring to about heuristic #693 is present in today's reinforcement learning systems as well! That begs the question how far have we really come in the quest for intelligence and how much of the progress we see today is dependent on just having more computing power and better pattern matching than 60 years ago?

  3. nice! I woulnd't have the faintest idea where to find such clips though, so thank you for making this! looking frward to more in the future!

  4. In1988 Teuvo Kohonen told us that future AIs will be "separate units you can attach to your regular computer". This sounds true, methinks real AIs will be treated like human personalities with certain skillz and experience. "This AI has 3 years of experience of driving on congested roads in India, 300€". They will be separate units, because the hardware will be more brain-like, and architecture is constructed or grown as it gains knowledge and skills. https://youtu.be/Qy3h7kT3P5I?t=2479

  5. I wonder if he's purposely giving a dumbed-down explanation for his answers by using laymen's terms or if terms like AGI didn't exist back then 🤔

  6. I like how open ended Feynman leaves his answers here. He never gives an ultimatum about whether Ai will supersede humans, just interesting anecdotes.

  7. One thing he mentioned is really what I usually find ridiculous when people thinking of AI, when they will like us? As if AI need to be operate as a human do, if they do that, they will be completely useless
