Hawking predicted the end of the human race
The famous physicist predicted the victory of synthetic intellect of the human mind. Scientist fear that will soon be created machines that could obscure person.
English theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking admitted that in the moment of primitive forms of artificial intelligence has proved its own favour, but in the future it will help them in every way to obscure people. "The appearance of genuine artificial intelligence may be the end of the human race. Such a mind will take the initiative and will myself to improve with increasing speed," he announced gloomy forecast Hawking.
The scientist himself lives, using a special system for Intel - in consequence of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in fact it is completely devoid of the ability to move and talk. The system helps him to talk. The voice of Stephen is generated programmatically, which gives him specific mechanical sound. As he says about his voice, "it became my calling card, and I would not change it for a more "live" voice with an English accent", informs BBC.
Despite a serious illness, he engaged in the popularization of science, and is the founder and managing Director of the Centre for theoretical cosmology at Cambridge Institute.
Days.Ru wrote that Hawking and previously made apocalyptic predictions in the Preface to the new book Starmus he reports that the so-called "God particle" may become unstable. Scientist predicts that if similar happens, it will lead to the inevitable end of the world.
Steven tells that if scientists will not stop the experiments with the Higgs boson, besides famous as the "God particle", this can lead to unstable and cause "the tragic collapse of the vacuum, which can lead to the collapse of space-time.
