DeepMind: The Quest to Develop Artificial General Intelligence 

Love the quality of this video! Thank you for putting in the extra effort!

This was a beautifully produced episode. Thanks for taking the time to make it

I had been following the news on DeepMind for years but you have it really well summarized! I really like learning about these kinds of advancements so I appreciate all the effort you put in to make these videos. Subscribed.

I was just looking to see if you posted a video just a half hour ago and here it is! It's so fun looking into the future! Thank you for the videos!

the story about his epiphany at age 12 years is hilarious. and awesome

Great video Ryan and Omar! Super informative and well paced. One of your best videos yet!

Wow! Omar and Ryan, this is an excellent documentary, not just another YT vid. You brought us all up to the cutting edge of AI today, and got us pondering tomorrow. Keep it up!

I've been following you and the AI stuff for a while now. As a programmer, I developped some AI programs and loved it. It was a really well done documentary and even though I already knew pretty much everything about the content presented in this documentary, it gave me chills watching it. Well done sirs.

This was an amazing episode! Thank you for summarising it. Looking forward for the same type of episodes in the future especially when Neuralink makes a major breakthrough.

Wow that’s the most beautiful documentary I have seen in decades. Thanks and kudos to Ryan and Omar. Breathtaking stuff.

Your fantastically scripted video brought many of the ideas from Cade Metz's book "Genius Makers" to life in ways I could not visualize based on a verbal description alone. I immediately liked and subscribed.

Amazing stuff! Thanks. Always a pleasure to watch insightful docu's about groundbreaking topics.

Well done on the script! It is a great summary of were DeepMind and the pursuit of AGI began and where it has progressed too. So much more is inbound for humanity as DeepMind, OpenAI, Neuralink, and Telsa push the boundaries of AI and human interaction. AlphaFold2 is impressive, but I look forward to the day the MuZero equivalent is born. We need answers to protein interactions in a rapid turnaround fashion.

Nice long form summary. Ties a few pieces together nicely

Loving Demis’ epiphany! Competing for personal gain seems much less productive/rewarding than collaborating for a better world.

Such a good video! You did a great job in covering Deepmind, Demis' story and making it available for people to understand such a complex subject. And the 53 minutes flew by! One request: Please fix your microphone audio. It sounds a bit weird at 38:35 and low quality with my headphones on. And somehow balance the interview audio with your microphone audio. Keep up the awesome work spreading the news and information about this so elegantly!

Only one word for this episode. Masterpiece! Congratulations!

Brilliant video breakdown, thourghouly enjoyed it, subscribed!

Well done summary of Deep Mind's progress.

thanks so much xxx it's still a process to control emotions xxx we cannot lose them, but ... somehow, by keeping them at bay and focusing on the ideal, the machine is able to be manipulated xxx once free-will is introduced, there is that mayhem that ensues with every creation that is left to 'blow in the wind' ... but ... there is a collective which builds up a resistance to movement due to clumping or cornering ... the ideal is to build a space which is non-restrictive but an invisible harness (heard words/commands) that are louder and more insistent than the random words in the gathering ... so, yeah, it's a weirdo situation like being caught up in a stadium ending up on the stage ... hand me an instrument, and I should be okay ... so, yeah, whether the instrument is inside or outside or both, it should help to focus on a de-clumping in good time and with no injury xxx

Clicked on this when Warren Redlich recommend this video on Twitter. Great video.

Thank you for this video Rayan!

The breakout tunnel strategy is something we used to try and do !

Great video. Very interesting and informative. Thanks a lot

I appreciate the video - thanks so much. Please keep at it.

Wonderful as this is, there is one thing missing! The understanding that the nature of reality and intelligence is a consciousness that is the fundamental ground of reality. This consciousness is not physically based, it is nonphysical! Though expressed as physical also!

Good job on this gem of a presentation, guys 👏👏👏

Amazing how AGI is quite capable of determining if its opponent is a human by analysing their moves or mistakes but the human player would be hard pushed to evaluate this in a metaverse-like test environment other than using their instinct Great presentation I am looking forward to more👍

Thanks for such a through exploration; well cited. Incredible research, all consolidated. Interested parties like me will watch it all; try some bite sized-sound bites to get attention. As much AI research as I’ve done, I was fascinated to learn about deep mind’s access to Google’s systems for energy….my jaw hit the floor. Thanks.

thanks for a good episode

I love your content. Just watched the whole video. Please continue making cool videos

your channel is getting better and better

Good idea-branching out a skosh. Maybe a lot of other Neuralink-adjacent topics could be good for the channel?

This was a truly excellent and thorough documentary about Deep Mind. Thank you!

I want to use the deep mind programming to resolve my rover problem because the rover has 27 machine and it can walk fly swim and roll rotates...so I have already design it the model in order to make it practical I need the deep mind programming to handle all the tasks and other which I should not mention thanks I great work you have done excellent

I was always a skeptic and this puts the why together nicely, I think what Demis learned from his AI is that, hard things like chess are acquired skill and not a measure of one's general intelligence. Way I see it DeepMind solved artificial skill mastery, which is a milestone, its better than I thought possible but I wouldn't call it intelligence. Look out Skillshare though, I want to hear AlphaGuitar, imagine it would be like hearing Hendrix for the first time.

This time what went on in Vegas will not stay in Vegas!! I met both Britney Spears and Elon Musk in 2000 at Bellagio. Britney just stared at me as she was singing on stage and I was standing in an archway above and nearby. I'm not sure if I was supposed to be standing up there by myself but I did have her undivided attention. A few days later Elon came up to me and started asking me questions about what I was doing there, in Las Vegas and Hawaii during that time. If I would I be fine answering a few questions. And if I was a gambling man? I stated, "I was on vacation and I only like to bet on things that are worth betting on!" I had earned these trips by qualifying reward points at my work. He asked, "What kind of work is it that you do?" I said, "Commercial energy saving promotions but I had been schooled in Automotive Marketing Business Administration and worked in that field for several years as well." He asked me, "If I had millions of dollars to spend what would be the most innovative businesses that could help humanity?" We talked about electric cars, we talked about solar energy and so many other subjects for over an hour. Even commercial space exploration for the consideration of colonization. That way all of humanity's eggs are not in one basket in case of another world war, asteroid strike, major climate change, etc. These we're very expensive and ambitious businesses to become successful at. Therefore we had to talk about ways of keeping a low overhead in advertising, distribution and the manufacturing. He said, "They were all very good ideas and that they should be done!" He said he had already made hundreds of millions off of a couple internet companies he started. "One of them was PayPal," he stated. Not that I had really done a lot of online banking or e-transfers at that time I didn't think much of it, until I noticed online about a year later that I could buy something off the computer with my PayPal card! Unfortunately I had just received a promotion as regional manager with the company I was working with. This made me let Elon know that I had to wait for a few years before I could assist further. I keep on sending out messages, hoping that he will get one and reply back. I will probably have to keep on trying, he gets more messages in a day then I would in five years! It is very inspiring to me to have a conversation with someone and they dedicate the next 20 years to making our conversation reality! We also talked about becoming your own best supplier and starting businesses that help your existing business. A type of slingshot effect that he has incorporated very well. It is so ambitious and amazing that he was willing to put pretty much all of his money where his mouth is and just make it happen with a consistent dedication. Congratulations Elon and I am looking forward to working with you again, one day in the near future! I still come up with innovative business ideas on a daily basis. Of course Britney I always wish her well and would enjoy meeting her again as well. Let's shoot for the Moon then Mars and then we will end up amongst the Stars! If you would like to learn more of these topics let me know. People with integrity expect to be believed otherwise they let time prove them right! propower101@hotmail.com

This is remarkably good content. Thanks very much for making this video.

This man demis hassabis is the one who solved AI and deeply changed the world forever, he seems invisible but should be considered one of the most important figures in human history.

2 advantages of machine are: 1. Lack of forgetfulness 2. Lack of emotional predisposition that typically underlie mistaken conclusions/decisions

OMG! I ´ve played chess since I was 3 and I wanted to study physics but decided to study cognitive neuroscience for the same reasons. It is scary to see people that have a very similar train of thought.

Demis Hassabis, the CEO of DeepMind was recently on the Lex Fridman podcast 👌

Great video. Thanks for posting.

The new anchors asking Elon about his investment in DeepMind came up with some brilliant questions 😃 I’d love to hear Elon’s response to those very same queries today. I feel like back then he was almost being shy & has grown his confidence since then 👍🏽 Coming back to watch the 2nd half tomorrow. This vid’s awesome, Ryan, cheers 🙏🏽 Holy cow 🐄 AlphaStar’s pretty epic! SC2 grandmasters perform hundreds of APM (Actions per Minute) & I love how Manna said he usually tries to ensure his opponent makes mistakes + how that didn’t work up against AlphaStar I play a game called Stellaris, and a full play through can be 10s of hours.. makes me imagine how AI could perform a task flawlessly without pause. Where as humans could perhaps go 12 hours straight.. but their performance would become increasingly strained over time. I love the concept of cocreating with AI & use GPT-3 tools to enhance my writing & visual artworks. Currently working on a book that’s all about cocreating with AI 😃📖🙏🏽

good stuff very well made, im inspired

Amazing job guys keep up the great work

superb knowledge

I do love in innovation and curiosity of the world and I started 1982 comidore 64

wow !!! that actually looks like a dream or unexpected thing which us actually in a progress.🤯

Great work. Keep going.

this is awesomme man

You've done a great service to your audience with this video. My understanding of Deep Mind has contributed significantly to my enhanced perspective of AI. Many thanks... SoCalFreddy

Very informative, exciting and inspiring documentary on Deepmind and AI. Congratulations.

It's pretty incredible, but would not a better application be applying the AI to solving the problem of creating a truly General AI?

Demis Hassabis is the REAL DEAL

Brilliant

If you look at just one Ai vs another then the future of AGI is far away. The sharing of data sets and knowledge is a lot more cooperative than I originally thought. I think that since they have already found ways to start to combine diverse Ai's the advancement is going to be crazy fast. My current prediction is that the TESLA Bot while mastering spatial awareness will quickly be adapted to LaMDA 3 or GPT 4.0 for conversations and human gesturing that will blow peoples minds.

Amazing skills and high forms of intelligence (with a major focus on the intellect). What is missing here (from my perspective) are the spiritual and metaphysical dimensions. So much of this work and development is limited to the material world and how to get things done and done better. I am not here to downplay the value of lots of the progress that is made and how Ai and technology can assist humanity with important tasks and even be part of a brighter and more peaceful future, that we will hopefully see globally soon. But after all we are human beings and not "human doings"! So what we need is not only get to know our minds and the material world but also our deep connection with nature and the true purpose and potential of the human heart. The heart is actually a more powerful organ than the brain, not only electromagnetically but also in many other way - seen and unseen.

I played breakout when it was released and i was a kid and it took some games to find the solution with the "side-gap".

Incredible video!

I would love to see agi explain trust, write poetry about love and affection. Even music composition... Ofc there is more important things to focus on like medicine and biological to augment our productivity

Thank you for your hard work!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH for sharing this with us mere mortals.

great episode!

Cool stuff!!

Did AlfaGo played with AlfaZero?

Excellent I love programming I am trying to make to use it in many machine simultaneously ..pls help I am just trying

Interesting that it's not designed to recognize specific games (now), but it seems to recognize a pattern of strategies instead, which in turn can be used in any game (or real life). 🤔😱

Great video!

I have AGI & ASI solved... have proof, demos, and specs... worked on solution for 50 years!

You just use the Sony earphone collecting the voice ? It Sounds very good

Are you going to make a video on stentrode?

I didn't realize how close we might be to a general artificial intelligence and didn't take it seriously, until AlphaGo defeated Li Sedol. A game with vastly larger search field than chess and which was thought to rely mostly on intuition. That success of AlphaGo changed everything.

I can't help it. Everytime I see Elon Musk in an interview or public presentation I only see him replicate superficial knowledge and scifi inspired quotes. I somehow always fail to see the 'brilliant engineer' he supposedly is. I was actually really surprised to see him in this video. (Great video by the way thanks!)

Re: AI at Work? It seems like the last few F9 landings had expended a few extra seconds of ISP to hover down to a centimeter perfect landing. On the last landing, the softwares & systems teams got all four legs touching square on the new “precision” ring drawn inside the SpaceX bullseye, as would be required of Starship chopstick captures. Big ups & here’s hoping for an uninterrupted series of similar mind boggling performances! For early Starships, maybe a virtual landing tower of flying drones like we saw at Cyber Rodeo &/or a floating target held in place by submerged drones? Could (was) AI be involved in developing last week’s B7 spin test regime to optimize results? A new job for Optimi looking around harsh environments to detect anomalies?

Thanks!

I'm genuinely interested in this topic; both intellectually and as a significant risk for humanity's flourishing or failure. I would have liked a little discussion on the missing pieces needed to achieve true sentience. I think they're things like the ability to reason logically; attention; some understanding of time sequences or cause and effect; and a model of individual sentients so that it can then run a simulation of itself as a sentience and thus achieve self awareness. Check out Joscha Bach. (I think it's important to include ideas about likely developments, in the background of some speculative fiction.)

This is a extremely well researched and narrated documentary - which is particularly remarkable as this is a DIY documentary.

Great video,😊

Quality documentary

🔥🔥🔥

Thanks for adding to the documentation of this astounding topic! Just listened to Lex Fridman's interview with Demis a couple of days ago. Pretty mind-blowing stuff. They talked about AI controlling nuclear fusion reactions, among other things. It seems like AGI could lead to major breakthroughs in things people have been struggling with in a wide variety of fields, very quickly. And immediately after that, AGI will be doing things that no one has ever been close to mastering. Science fiction will become real, and then things that few people have ever imagined. Use AGI to solve the climate & ecological crises without killing the people who cause it...

"Душа",это индивидуальная память,очень точная,основная лежит кучей в кладовке,но она никуда не исчезает,просто в данный момент она не нужна.

26:16 “ the AI will chase us there pretty quickly” 😂

Goodbye ant hill 🤣👀 great video bud 🙏🏻 I’m excited & scared for the future! Glad we have Elon looking after us.

Great video.

I remember the early 90s when this thing called the "Information Superhighway" was going to solve all our problems. It did not work out that way

this all seems like a mirror of us on speed. we should not forget that it is us which is mirrored. if we now give over several aspects of our intelligence to these algos we could devolute our capacities - which then will also be mirrored. I guess this is some kind of a very dangerous trap. speed up extinction? Perhaps superintelligence would decide to stop that upspeeding? Is alphafold capable of folding itself? Is mankind capable of folding intelligence?

Everybody who played Breakout back in the day knew that if you could get the ball up there, you'd be very effective in winning.

Temple at 3:27 is Garni and it is in Armenian not Greece)

To think that AGI will never happen is to think that something like GATO is not in that direction or that there is some hidden ceiling limit yet people continue to say that it's impossible with latest unsubstantiated proclamation being that it's only possible with real world interaction in the form of a physical body. These assertions, like the old one of a 3 layer neural net being sufficient for any function, are what are worth betting against. I wish I'f have been in Elon's position and able to invest in DeepMind that early.

Demis Hassabis makes me think of the computer scientist in the movie Terminator that invents Skynet

It is hard to say if the current development will be enough to create sentinent and genereal AI, but I definitely believe that the scale of what AI has accomplished in the last few years is massive, and there is a very likely scenario that with the help of AI AI will bootstrap itself into the next level. The order of magnitude is probably something like the invention of the written word, and like the printing press, the computer, and the internet will enhance and enable human capabilities to an undreamed of level. AI might accerlerate our demise, or prevent us from getting extinct - time will tell. But I would rather live now than in any other time. Times of transition are never easy, but as a human species we have seen quite a few of them, and should know that there is always the chance of positive outcomes. I still remember how hard it was before the internet to access knowledge - going to the library, watching documentaries at fixed times, speaking with rare people. I expect another boost in knowledge acquisition and problem solving capabilities, and I look forward to it.

Demis reminds me of the guy in the Terminator movie who invents Skynet

Keep up the hard work, I'd like to meet you some day. You will have a bright future.

45:21 "... AI can teach us things, we didn't already know... DeepMind is making progress in AI in a much more dynamic environment such as real time strategies..." Such as real wars. - How to win an actual war? - Task DeepMind with its strategies!!! How long do we think it takes until the military takes it over? We intended it for good; to help people 42:45, but the people in power will use it to accumulate more control, more power and more wealth.

Can Alhpa team create program allowing me to see Lotto numbers for day ahead?

Job well done

Excellent
