AI needs a loss function - just like us humans need motivation. For us, this ranges from eating food, to having sex, to being happy because of something else - these must be defined in an AI much the same. Letting an empty neural network roam around will not achieve anything

Weather forecasting is one of those fields where I expected advances to be negligible due to two things: Sheer amount of time already spent on it, and the butterfly effect. Happy to see Deepmind doing their thing and proving me wrong again.

Im not saying it will break the physical laws per se - but it really might. Everything we know, we know with our human intelligence, which will be surpassed. A dog might think his master never runs out of food, that may be a "law" in his mental world, yet it is painfully obvious to us humans that it's wrong.

No. You clearly show you don't want that - so that's not your perfect world. If your perfect world contains misfortune and crime, you'll get that. In perfect doses, so that you are the happiest possible; even if your maximum sustainable happiness is relatively low. Seems like it.

you think that now. Just wait until you're plugged into a custom FDVR experience tuned specifically to your taste, prickling the exact likes you've always had, scratching that itch you never even knew you had, and making you the happiest you could ever be - even if your perfection is imperfection.
