The Internet will recognize people

Ben Goertzel, chairman of the Institute of Artificial Intelligence Research (USA), said: 'The Internet is operating quite similar to our minds. Perhaps it will reach the level of awareness tomorrow. '

Technically, it is not difficult to see the similarities between the human brain and the complex internet node, such as both storing, processing, recalling and transmitting information. However, the Internet does not necessarily and cannot have the same form as the human brain, for example, it cannot now ask 'Who am I?'

Internet structure is similar to human brain.

Francis Heylighten, an artificial intelligence researcher at the University of Free University, Belgium, explains the Internet's self-awareness: "The global network will be oriented to becoming a self-aware network, constantly working well. more, being able to self-reform and supplement their own knowledge and improve their capabilities If the Internet is still not able to perceive it somewhat, we can influence it to "awaken", wallet as the Internet requires self-monitoring and certain moves to its knowledge gaps. "

Ben Goertzel, chairman of the Institute of Artificial Intelligence Research (USA), commented: "This humanistic outlook is likely to be even better when Internet intelligence becomes clear, coherent and purposeful."

Francis Heylighen agrees with this view, but he also warns about some things that will disappoint: "From the beginning, perhaps we are not paying attention to all the differences."

So when does this happen? According to Heylighen, this prospect is entirely dependent on the new trend going strong on the Internet, which is the formation of social networks. Based on the development of web 2.0 technology, Heylighen said, the Internet will reach awareness within the next 10 years.

The recent H1N1 swine flu, the virtual world witnessed the disturbance of information on social networks but also in that context, the relevant agencies, responsible members used this information network to reassure Public opinion, stable situation.

International organizations such as WHO (World Health Organization), CDCemergency (US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) have used Twitter to report on epidemics to suppress rumors that have caused confusion. on this "microblogging" service.
