"artilects" artificial intellects will outstrip man's brain
-
But rather than offer us hope, another leading computer scientist believes these inroads in to the mind threaten oblivion.
Professor Hugo de Garis is the architect of some of the world's most complex neural networks - computers that evolve their own intelligence.
Now he is deeply conflicted over the future he is helping to create.
Prof De Garis believes that in a matter of years machine intelligence will supersede our own by a factor of millions.
These so called artilects - short for artificial intellects - will be so powerful that they will appear "almost God-like".
But Prof De Garis fears that they may not be quite so benign.
"How will they feel about us - an inferior species?" he asks before drawing a doom-filled analogy.

Good example of continuous improvement -- from uploading bookmarks, to social sharing of bookmarks and searchable tags to uploading documents and taggable searching of content ? Curious to see what users are sayin about whether this actually works or not.
-
An example of how Twine works: A user uploads a text document to their Twine account. Twine then parses the document to find the words with meaning — names, places, concepts and so forth. Those terms become tags, which the person can use to access related information.

Good definition of Web 3.0 -- end LandL by looking forward beyond semantic web and basic tools for uploading your brain
-
Web 3.0 is statistics, linguistics, open data, computer intelligence, the wisdom of crowds and user-generated content all coming together. It’s not a specific technology. It’s a convergence that will take place in a certain period of time

As Tim Berners-Lee and others have described it, the Semantic Web creates a web of data that allows computers to find, extract, share, re-use information, and potentially even reason with it. Semantic content can be embedded in web pages, published from databases, and gathered into online repositories. Most important, semantic data itself contains “meta-information” so that other services are able to make sense of it. For example, the Semantic Web uses markup not only to indicate how something should be rendered, but also to express content (e.g. the authorship, title, and date of an article).

Sounds amazing but it has the same broad copyright ownership licensing as Youtube does. It says it protects your privacy but it retains the right to do what it wants with whatever you store

reQall 2.0 gives you even more -- allowing you to share thoughts and tasks, from a variety of places, in a variety of ways; from your cell phone to the web, instant messaging, email, text – even Google Gadget.
