Nvidia would be nowhere without this guy and his speeches

Think about this: we are almost at the point where if we wanted a robot to perform any number of tasks, we wouldn't need to figure it out and program it - the robot would just need to THINK about it, and practice the tasks in its mind first.

Nvidia just figured out how to give robots an imagination. That's as fascinating, exciting and terrifying as it sounds.

Another amazing presentation by Jensen

Ted Chiang's "The Lifecycle of Software Objects" is proving to be quite prescient.

[Fudog]

"That's all I've got..." Well I thought that was kind of funny considering. Great job to the Nvidia team.

[sashamaz]

I imagine this thing will eventually learn to use a gun too.

We could be in some advance species's "isaac"

[TheOriginalNeomix]

So basically they are creating the beginnings of Samaritan from Person of Interest! :/

[suharsh]

This makes me want to switch from an AMD card to a Nvidia one

[DBHHellhound]

Robots are great if they dont replace workers.

[Thephilpw]

Of the whole 2 hours of his showcase of many different AI technologies, this 10 minutes scares me the most. The implication is that robots doesn't need the physical world to learn. They can learn doing things extremely fast in their own virtual world. So in the coming years robots can learn to do all kind of physical work in a rapid pace. Many of our low-paying jobs will be replaced by robots soon. Not a bright future for a lot of us, and it's happening much faster than Most of us expected.

7:07 right after this they should show year 2130 where terminators are walking with red eyes everywhere

[Julia-hkjp]

THATS ACTUALY COOL AND DANGEROES ...The series depicts a future in which Earth is dominated by robots that were created early in the 21st century and rebelled against humanity
