That is because the duty of cops is not to protect people but to protect the system, the system just happens to have rules that enforces some protection of people. Very few people today understand that key difference.

Shouldn't have posted so soon, you are correct in that it did find new equations. Very cool in that regard and does back up my belief in this being a very important tool.
Nothing it found was new and it isn't AGI as this story is talking about. It's genetic programming but mining large data sets is, and will continue to, help with many fields and be hugely beneficial perhaps even with regards to understanding intelligence. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E...
That simulation was using off the shelf hardware not designed to handle the simulation efficiently, the Von Neumann bottleneck is easily hit in large neural networks.
Having a brain-equivalent information processor that fits in the space of a skull and runs on the brain's approximately 20 W? It won't happen in your life time if you're old enough to be posting on this site.

As an Australia I can tell you this is just one of many abuses and deceptions this government has made, it lied about so many things to get into power and than crafted a fake "economic crisis" once in power ( when economists the world over agreed our economy was the envy of the world ) to try to remove socialized services like health care, welfare and education. The only things they could get through the senate were laws that LOST billions in revenue to the government like the carbon tax and the mining tax because it was "bad for business" ( yet again, economists disagreed ). They are trying to remove the need for telco's to report the number of data requests from government each year even though none of the telco's have complained about it.
They also performed our biggest terrorist raids ever a couple weeks before pushing through laws that now goal whistler blowers and the journalists who report as well as any citizens who communicate about it for up to 10 years. It was only after these laws passed that the truth came out that the weapon found, which was going to be used on the public, was a plastic toy sword! They have power over the media thanks to Murdoch who compared the last party to Nazis during election time and had a nice front page story saying "Kick this mob out" at one stage. Murdoch is a part of a group known as the IPA who have been getting all their wishlist items checked off by this government, many of us understand he is one of the real leaders of our country.
Our environmental minister is better known as our "environmental merchant" who is selling out the environment without a care, approving more coal mines when many economists are pointing to established coal mines being abandoned in a few years due to dwindling profits and demand and fast tracking the destruction of the Great Barrier Reef against the World Heritage warnings of placing it in danger. He did this with the help of one of our richest Mining Magnate's who happened to get his new party into power too, for some reason he hasn't got any conflict of interest running a billion dollar mining company while voting on laws that would profit and benefit him personally. Including recently helping pass a pathetic climate change policy that pays companies to plant trees at a cap of $2.5 billion dollars. Yep we apparently have an economic crisis but they removed a carbon tax that was working and generating income with one that no one outside the party believes will work and actually costs public funds.
For those unaware our PM is also the one who removed the minister for science, took the title of minister for women ( while making many public sexist comments ) and the minister for aboriginals ( while making many offensive and racist remarks ). To top it off as a public servant this comment means I can be fired, because I am not allowed to discuss politics online or appear at political protests.
Clearly you haven't heard of Australia, the largest exporter of iron ore and coal and a government fighting to remove world heritage protection of some of the oldest forests left as well as trying to destroy a world wonder for more coal exports. Abundant raw resources are our greatest burden!
He recently donated to Vicarious, if you haven't heard of them you should google them ( or Dr Dileep George, Recursive Cortical Network ). They have been hinting at real progress in mimicking the human visual cortex ever since George and Jeff Hawkins worked together on their HTM algorithm.
As per usual if you RTFA you would see that the first goal in 2020-2025 is to transfer the actual brain to an avatar. Have been following this project for the last year, there are a lot of big names showing interest in this. The article even mentions a few really big ones that are yet to announce their support publicly, no doubt due to the plebs being frightened of new magic..
The brain reacting quicker is the most likely scenario. The excessive repetition of an activity results in the the axons building up a nice fat layer of myelin sheathing, which have insulation properties that speed up the electrical transmission.
I usually place 1st in fast paced FPS games like Team Fortress 2, have won numerous local tournaments back in the day for Quake 3 too. From what I recall, many of the pro CS players used to include physical workouts in their training regime too. While I code and design games more than play these days, I still push hard to keep my 10km runs under 40 min. Recently I just so happened to get an achievement in Runkeeper for tracking my 1,000th km.
So very true! As an Australian I can attest to the power on voting for the other groups, last federal election we managed to score 2 seats for greens! The amount of difference that has made for just 2 seats is amazing, I can only hope that in the upcoming election later this year we can get a few more and really start to change things.
I like to say that the greatest trick the devil ever played wouldn't be convincing the world they didn't exist, but rather convincing the world they were god. I mean god is a nasty motherf&cker with an appitite for destruction and death.
Plus everyone knows stories are better with killer plot twists, just ask M. Night Shyamalan
Hmm, last I checked no one had confirmed the existence of free will. I tend to favour the theory of Howard Bloom that free will is only likely if electrons and photons have it, and the world of science is only just starting to delve into the new theory of quantum communication afaik.
Again this is what a hierarchical hidden markov model does, it's the closest simulation of our own neuronal network. It learns by experience just like we do, just at a much faster pace.

Could be worse, you could be an Australian with Phony Ab-butt as PM.

In the original story ( Gilgamesh ) it was a week, in the re-telling the character Noah started at 500 years old and finished when he was 600.

If you're comfortable with hardware you could pick up an iPad LCD screen ( around $60 on ebay ) and add a display port connection to it, the only outstanding issue is an enclosure but access to a 3d printer could solve that.
