I heard from the darkness the voice of my dead mother. She is desperate shouted: “Lord, please stop hurting me! Leave me alone, I don’t want to stay here anymore! “I raised in horror head and for a split second saw her, or rather her bottomless black eyes that looked at me directly from the canvas …
This is by no means an excerpt from Stephen’s new horror master novel King, and the beginning of a “terrible” story invented by the foremost artificial intelligence. A program called “Shelley AI,” functioning on the basis of neural networks, imitates human creative thinking and composing a full-fledged work in the genre horror.
And she composes it rather slowly, giving out everything one or three offers per hour. Sophisticated Deep Learning Algorithms allow the machine to create a complete logical story that almost impossible to distinguish from a story that came out of the pen a talented writer (we will not compare with geniuses yet).
Scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology “fed” the robot tens of thousands of literary works in the style of “horror”: starting from recognized classics like Bram Stoker’s Dracula and ending with the most interesting amateur stories, written by internet users.
Artificial intelligence got acquainted with other people’s creativity and began create your own, coming up with unique characters, surroundings, story turns and the like.
Do you think this is creativity or talented compilation?
On the one hand, an ordinary writer seems to be creating his works, also relying on the information he received in life: on your life experience, accumulated knowledge from books, movies, through live communication with other people, and so on. In this case man compete with AI, which is able to absorb the same and even significantly more information is fantastically fast and which practically does not know the problems with pulling it out of his memory, It seems even pointless.
But on the other hand, what is creativity? Why the same Stephen King creates such unique horror films that they can’t even imagine come to a normal person? Where does he get these brilliant stories images, incomprehensible to the mind details, is it really also compiling and only Talently processing the accumulated information? And how about this case of being with the Yalta girl poetess Nika Turbina, who in early childhood she began to write just brilliant, and too mature poems with no life experience for of this? Anyway – is artificial intelligence capable of poetry? Will the downloaded in his memory help him in this unique work tens of thousands of volumes of poems by brilliant poets? ..
The interesting questions AI poses before us, isn’t it? And it is already today, and what will be tomorrow? ..
