where did you get this stat? computers can out process us by miles, and have a larger capacity for information

please go to school. computers can never out process us. if we could put our processing power in a computer, the computer would be almost flawless

just like how we are almost flawless? oh wait, we arent. not sure what this has to do with processing, we cant come close. tell me when you can crunch trillions of mathematical equations at a time, and we will talk. supercomputers have been out processing us for years.



show me video evidence of a supercomputer controlling all of our bodily functions then i'll believe that supercomputers out process humans

how is that complicated? there would be no reason for it, and since they use simple machines to control hearts (pace makers) lungs(breathing machines) its a simple electronic impulse to make the muscle contract. you seem to overrate the human body. they have made an artificial stomach that can digest. all these things will easily be reproduced. but why would a computer need to do this? there is no reason, it could be done with the correct programming, as computers can do more than us on a computational level. how many humans can run modern jets by themselves? most of the functions are computer controlled, with the basic things a human input, but can be easily controlled by computers. you make a simple argument, and a silly comparison. when it comes down to it, we are talking about intelligence, and computers will beat us.

ok smarty (or maybe not) pants i wanna see you substitute your brain for a super computer and let's see if you're gonna be very smart. why are some scientists considering uusing dna to power super computers (atlhough not possible yet), because there isn't anything better than a human. i guess you are one of those ignorant people, maybe a brit? well americans can be ignorant too.

not sure where you get the DNA powered super computers, would love to see that in writing. at this point, you couldnt directly throw in a computer, cause like i said, they are still working on proper AI. AI will eventually get to the point where it can make logical decisions for every situation on the fly. they already have a primitive version called fuzzy logic. it has been used for years for computers to make decisions. computers can run any organ in the body, and you know that for a fact, cause they do it all the time to keep people alive. running the body doesnt mean we are intelligent, just means designed for life, rather than pure thought. computers on the other hand wont suffer from emotion, and body functions to really worry about, so it can be all dedicated to thought. you keep telling me to do things that are currently not really possible, i never stated it is going to happen tomorrow, but it will eventually. everyone seems to say since computers were designed by us, we have to be smarter, but you were designed by nature and evolution, and im pretty sure we are smarther than the general idea of nature as we know it. you have to teach children, otherwise they will just be a simple creature, children have to be taught the combined knowledge of an entire civilization, which would have to be done with the computer also. but clearly they can do this better, because computers have long since surpassed our storage capacities, and computational is debatable to a point, but they will eventually pass us for sure. remember just 20 years ago, computers were almost retarded by comparison, thats quite a quick progression, much faster than our evolutionary process will ever begin to be.

ok suit yourself. i think we humans are smarter and you've got a different opinion, we shouldn't kill each other over that. but there is one thing i've to say, and that is that if all our brain functions were made into memory the computer would be nothing our braindoes calculations much faster than a computer, i bet if we put a computer to replace a brain the computer wouldn't stand a chance of controlling everything. and boy we had to teach computers how to work too or else it would be retarted as you said it was 20 years ago. i need to say that computers make smarter decisions but they aren't smarter than us. no chess player stands a chance of beating a computer because we humans programed it to do smart moves, while a human cannot be programmed. i want you to teach a computer how to talk. this is the link where i got the dna powered computer thing http://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/dec99/945138490.Ns.r.html . and i didn't want to tell you things that aren't currently possible but i told you to prove how smart a computer actually is. i ask you a final question. imagine if we humans had no brains how would computers exist? if computers we're smart they would be able to create themselves, a computer is just taught to make things easier and better deccison for humans. the link i gave will show you some valuable information. i bet you couldn't put a robot as a soldier wthout it having help. let's put this to rest. i liked the points you brought up and i hope you liked my points too. very long debate ey, let's quit this.


Aren't computers just 1's and 0's which are just yeses and nos. How complicated is the structure of computers. yes, no, while, if then statements ect this is the core of computers right? Doesn't sound complicated to me...Ask a computer a question like what should i do about girlfriend problems. How could a computer help? If we humans dont put the ability in the computer to answer the question then the computer cant. Simple as that.

everyone is smarter than the ps3 ok. if humans invent something it means they're smarter than the thing they invented ok. i guess ur the only human dummer than the ps3 excluding the mentally ill (no offense to them)

You are actually quite mistaken just because you create something dosen't mean your the best at it and also technically speaking in this day and age AI is advancing once AI is completely functional who is to say we are smarter than it.

Even the most advanced computer in the world is incapable of tiying a shoe you see computers may have numer and mathmatic skills but that only takes up a small portion of our brain a computer lacks logic and common sence if all the data ever gathed by one person was to be pu on a computer it would fill yottabytes of space (and yes yottabyte is a computer number much higher than a gig)

idiot stfu you no **** this is the fastest comp in the world 1 - IBM BlueGene/L eServer Blue Gene, 280.6TFlops, 131072 processors 280.6 teraflops. moron and im betting that even using Hans Morvec theory the brain can comput a cuple hundred thousand times faster than that because it can access randomized memory (data) instantly and holds massivly large quantities of info much more than any computer could handle

The thing is stupid.  Unless it has instructions (software) it doesn't know how to do anything.  And when you take the instructions away it forgets. It's basicly a computer for pete's sake.  It only does what you tell it to do. Play game, movie, music, etc...

actually the most powerful super computer in the world does 1 petaflops, which is quite a bit more than your silly reference. you cant use all your brain there spanky, most of it is used for other things like keeping you alive, and moving, which cant be used to think. and as for your completely uninformed post about computers not being able to use logic, its called AI champ, look up fuzzy logic, it gives computers the ability to make decisions on the fly. as this technology advances, it will be able to make its own decisions. Vivendi games already stated they can make a fully self controlled environment with the Cell. in other words, they give the basic idea of what they want, the computer changes the environment as needed, season by season, weather pattern changes, if you blow up a building it can collapse later as it ages. all this done by the computer completely, with no preprogrammed code, just an idea to work with.

everything else? odd since every science out there uses computers for something, almost like they are a need rather than a commodity at this point in time. you enjoy the technological advancements knowing that a computer was the main reason they are there. without computers, we would be progressing slow as dirt right now. given time, and i promise you this, this is not a guess, i promise you, computers will be smarter than us in terms of intelligence.

Did not read through 9 pages of comments..

Of course we are smarter, we created it in the first place....

PS3 can think faster than we do (well any computer can....even a calculator thinks faster than you)..but we have some redeeming qualities:

1) Emotion - good or bad? certainly gives us our human quality and ability to deal with our stress, your EQ.
2) Adaptability - we can make changes to our strategies in a much more complex ways than a handful lines of algorithm; if the you evade the PC monster, it may try to pin you down some other ways, but you will always have the option to smash the TV so there is no more monster :) PS3 can't do that, can it? just a wild example.
3) Philosphy and altruism, this computers may never be able to develop in full with a handful lines of codes.
4) Output and Input - we use verbal, body, and sign languages to communicate (probably a few more other ways)..ur PS3 doesn't even do rumble now (maybe they'll bring it back)..but it 'tilts"??? you get the point...

haha sorry if i repeated anybody..no way i am gona read 9 pages of this..lol

Lol this thread is funny. Anyone who thinks the ps3 is smarter is pretty stupid, especially the person who said that the ps3 has a greater processing power than a human brain. Do you have any idea how much processing power a human brain has?? lol, me just typing this msg i'm using more processing power than a ps3. 

US ARE SMARTA THEN PS3

If you mean "Are we more intelligent than the ps3", let me first define intelligence. It is 1. the capacity to acquire and apply knowledge, and 2. the faculty of thought and reason.  A ps3 is incapable of being truly intelligent, but it can appear intelligent if we can program it to.  The brain is capable of receiving signals from our sensory organs and calculating actions to take in response to the data.  The ps3 can't make a single decision on its own.

the ps3 is capable of doing many more calculations per second than any human i know, however, the human brain can process and render visual and audio information much quicker. hoever, the ps3 clearly beats certian humans at all task, including a certian g.w.bush and some of the posters here at gamespot

you couldnt use all your brain, cause you would have a seizure, i linked that too. the portions of your brain needed for a particular task are used, it would be silly for your brain not to. we may have more knowledge than the PS3, but only because of a lack of self contained AI. given time, computers will have self contained AI and learning(they already can make decisions with AI, even in non logical situations, its called fuzzy logic, its been around for a while now)and they will surpass us. its just how it will happen, its impossible to deny if you have any thought behind your answer. and for the cute flops comparison of the brain, lets remember that at least half of the brain is not used for calculations of thought at all, most of it being used for involuntary actions, artistic thoughts, sensory reception, etc. its rather pitiful how much you people try to act like your smarter than it just cause of what its made of. how many of you can cleanly run a game at 1080P 60fps? none? thought so, not so fun when someone uses those same BS examples the other way huh. it will be some time before robots can out think us, but it will come.Gzus666

You ask how many of us can run a game at 1080P 60fps, then say none.  Funny, my brain (mixed with imagination) can run a game in my head far above 1080P (real life visuals) and far above 60fps (not sure on the fps of eyes but it's well above 60).  And to those people who think computers will get smarter than us, 2 things stand in the way:

1) Intelligence is a mix of many things like learning, problem solving, imagination, emotion and more, when will a computer ever have those (if it can? Unknown at the moment)

2) As we Humans are not stupid, we will stop making them more intelligent when they have reached a near human level of intelligence (too many stories of machines becoming more intelligent than us then killing us off).

That's what I think.

PS. We are definately smarter the the PS3

Exactly but you have to remember even if thousands of people built it one human brain has way more power than any machine/computer but a computer is just a little bit smarter than us because it can do stuff quicker than us like a really hard math problem, etc.

It is predicted that by 2050, it will only take a $1000 computer to exceed the computational powers of the human race. A computer is just that - a computer. It can't think, it can only do what it's told to do. Yet in about 15 years, a computer will be able to exceed the computational possibilities of a human brain.

The answer is yes and no.  Yes in the way that people can think, be imaginative and live life.  No in remembering things and storing information.  However no machine is smart enough to just live a life.

Of course we're smarter (in theory, considering there are complete idiots). The PS3 may do so things much quicker than us and perform inhuman functions, but it will always be limited by its architecture for what it was designed to do, while we are capable of infinite though (unfortunately not all of us). C'mon bro, it’s no AI it's just a game system, I feel stupid just by having to point out the obvious, not to mention that people created it, and know exactly what it's capable of. It's like saying whose smarter u or the calculator. Yes the calcualtor can caluclate anything in miliseconds, things that we'd never dream of doing in such time, but that's all it can do (And, yes.... we made that thing too)

Anyway speaking of memory of machines I was messing around with excel the other day and I mean you could put in a letter in over 8000 boxs or more and the thing will never get confused.  I don't know why thats amazing to me it just is.  Excel can go past 10,000 columns or rows whatever is on the left hand side of the cpu screen I forget which one it is.

It depends how you see smart. If "smart" is being able to calculate math at insane speeds, and generate pictures instantly, then the PS3 is smarter. Humans on math problems are around the milliflop range, whereas the PS3 is in gigaflops. But we also are handling many other things, such as smell, sight, hearing, feelings, muscle control, and it's very hard to guess how many FLOPS a human is actually capable of.

Regardless of how many FLOPS some person can do, we have abilities that go far beyond any computer. Computers, are essentially, only fast idiots.

two words why we didnt make PS3 smarter than us: Sky Net. You all saw Termenator 2. Next thing you know, PS3s sprout robotic limbs and take over the world.:(

Cambridge did a study on how the brain reads whole words, not letters individually, I tried finding the link to it but I cant find it. In the meantime, I wrote this.

If you wtroe cdoe lkie tihs, you tinhk any cuompetr culod mkae hdaes or tials out of it? If you meixd up cdoe, cluod your cmoueptr stlil fitncoun? Npoe, it has to be excat, but the biran tekas sohrt ctus, and can mkae sesne of tehse wodrs. Tihs aiitbly, and many mnay otehrs, is porof we are mcuh smeratr tahn we thnik.

I used a word scrambler program, and set it to scramble all but the first and last letter, just like Cambridge did, here's the link to the scrambler. http://www.lerfjhax.com/scrambler

Fun stuff, huh?
