Bitcoin is AI

Bitcoin is intelligent. No, I don't mean that it is a good idea, or clever people use it. I mean that the network itself is conscious. Sound crazy? Yeah probably it is. Anyway here's my blog post about it:

Let me know what you think.

Interesting article. I very much liked the "consciousness in a hostile environment" part, remarkable indeed ... and of course the fact that your services come cheap Wink

. I have same response as Alty here above.

I think that AI on block-chain is very very innovative idea and now with the start of Sapience AIFX it will hopefully become more than just a great subject to talk about.

Of course im not implying its the next big thing.... BUT its the next big thing! LOL Tongue

Thanks for your reply.

First of all, regarding ai in bitcoin, you are using a very low bar to describe artificial intelligence.

Very true. We have to start somewhere though. Could be I am using the wrong vocabulary.

There is "intelligence" in everything. Even the wind has information and calculations. But in practical terms artificial intelligence must refer to classes of intelligence that are commonly used either by human individuals or human groups, and it must be 'growable', it must contain information and calculations with the ability to learn, to adapt paradigms.

I guess I am trying to get away from the paradigm that intelligence is looking like or pretending to be human. You're right that coin networks as of now (that I have seen) don't have the ability to learn or adapt. However I believe that will be coming soon enough. Once the nodes run code that they take from the block chain directly and blocks can include patches, we'll be on our way to some interesting territory.

that was a v. interesting read, thanks for sharing!

Interesting take indeed, but I don't see the AI part, is "just" the most advanced way to process transactions in the planet, that deprecates anything else done before.

The network consensus awareness has a single possible action which it alone controls: setting the difficulty in order to keep the block timestamps as close as possible to 1 every 10 minutes.

It is just one variable which is controlled / solved. In my opinion, still a large way away from AI.

I get it since you're writing articles but you're stooping to scare tactics awfully quick. Bitcoin is not AI and not even close to what people are thinking, google is more of an AI than Bitcoin.

Yeah, it's just extremely clever math and computational power solving said math globally, where is the dangerous Skynet scenareo here??

Next large evolution step for humans will be slowly tranforming into robots, our organic body is useless.

Bitcoin is AI.
As the Bitcoin network grows stronger, it becomes self-aware and we are all doomed?
...or is there a "kinder, gentler" version?

Silly idea. But I like the article still.

The transcendent man documentary with Ray Kurzweil... will humans transcend biology? Roll Eyes

Bitcoin is not AI until it gets smart contracts and free will.

The community are the arms and legs of bitcoin... Right now I think bitcoin is a paraplegic.

Interesting that this was brought up because right now there is a coin well into development and it's using the Bitcoin codebase featuring AI in it's core.

Worth checking out if you like the idea of decentralized AI.

For anybody doubting AI on coin networks is not happening soon or not going to happen.

History is about to be made.

Decentralized AI core for Sapience AIFX is set to release TODAY.

Nah, I never see that happening, there is something just too perfect about the organic body.

It's far from perfect.. maybe those with great genetics would agree only.
But yeah, whats the point of having a robotic body? we couldn't even be able to have sex, life would therefore be pointless.

What s next, BTC Terminators?

Sorry but can you tell me what is "AI" . I am newbie about Crypto. Thanks !
