Would a DNS issue affect both my browser on pc and my phone, but only over the Wi-Fi and not mobile? I will fuss with it. Rebooting the router just for fun. Ugh. EE broadband is pretty decent but once in a while it just has these weird little fits.

Seems to have fixed it for now. I hate networking stuff, when I am even slightly tired it becomes like witchcraft to me. Thank you chums.

Yup. You try 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 as the DNS usually to figure out if that's it.

The account was totally dormant until 2018, so it could very easily be a purchased/stolen account.

It's not actually an AI though it's just ML. One of my bugbears (like how people don't know how Venn diagrams work) is that people don't know the difference between AI and ML because the two overlap so much!

Did a few courses on AI for my Computer Science degree, introductory stuff.

I could believe something today can pass the The Turing Test as that's just getting language context correctly, but I wouldn't call it true AI.

Edit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lu56xVlZ40M

Check out this video. The AI devises a brand new tactic without any input or even knowledge it could do that.
Is this sentience? No, just it logically finding it out and as its not breaking the rules its given, it can be used.

No to both.

ML is finding the parameters of a model from the data.

AI involves making a decision/action.

Lots of ML doesn't involve AI at all - like the generation of images based on what are essentially numerical optimisations which is how a lot of this fancy deep learning based stuff works.

AI doesn't have to involve ML at all - a hand coded decision tree can basically be a trivial example of an AI.

But these days it's unusual for an AI not to involve any ML, but it's pretty common for a lot of ML applications to not be an AI yet people often call it AI because.

edit: Obviously there's a lot to debate around cognition and sentience too but that's not what AI *is* or ever has been.

edit2: You can also see this distinction in nature. There's plenty of examples where you can see genetically hard coded behaviour, or learning driven behaviour, neither of which involve any evidence of 'consciousness' or other higher cognitive properties.

I appreciate all of your caveats and consideration here, it's insightful especially the distinction of AI as decision-making which I didn't know. But I'm not sure I understand the distinction between "pattern detection" and finding a model fit in the absence of a hypothesis (or even with a hypothesis)

Edit: Actually nm I'll chew on the distinction myself as it's interesting

I'd argue that as an emergent set of phenomena it's a gradual thing, where amoebae are vastly more self-aware than say thermostats, because of their range of memory and environmental responses, but cats are more self-aware than humans, because cats didn't spend millennia writing books trying to convince themselves that they're self aware.

Again also true of humans.

I fully believe that it is possible right now to build a machine that is capable of a greate practical degree of self awareness and also awareness of the existence of other selves, than many humans exhibit.

Pattern detection is fitting a model. What defines a 'pattern' is a choice. You can't really have an absence of a hypothesis in that context, you can only make it as broad as possible. Essentially that's what neural networks do; they're universal function approximators and your standard backprop training algorithm will find a local minimum from ~~some random start~~ of that function according to the data. Key concepts in ML are bias and variance: Bias is your choice of model (i.e. how much that constraints the potential resulting function) and variance is how sensitive that model is to the data (i.e. how much does a change in the data change the resulting function). An example of a highly biased model would be standard linear regression - everything has to fit a straight line; an example of a high variance model would be a high Nth degree polynomial model - you could squiggle your way through every data point.
