There are significant language barriers in between people and computer systems.

For one, people interact with language and text and images– all inputs that are naturally slower at interacting info than straight-up information.

However likewise, most importantly, computer systems view time in a different way than people. That’s due to the fact that of their capability to procedure information at a far greater speed than people can.

“To a computer system … a millisecond is an eternity, however to us it’s absolutely nothing,” Tesla, SpaceX, and Neuralink CEO Elon Musk stated in an extensive discussion about AI in Shanghai, China today. “Human speech to a computer system will seem like extremely sluggish tonal wheezing, sort of like whale noises. Due to the fact that what’s our bandwidth– a couple of hundred bits per 2nd, essentially, possibly a couple of kilobits per 2nd if you’re going to be generous?”

In a lot of words, Musk is stating that human kinds of interaction– speech, gestures, and so on– are constructed for interacting with other people. When those inputs are used to “speaking” to a computer system, they end up being woefully insufficient.

Computer systems, nevertheless, can interact information far, much more rapidly– “at a terabyte level,” Musk stated.

Which interaction distinction might be a significant problem for future AI-human relations, to the point where it would resemble a tree attempting to interact with a human.

“The computer system will simply get restless, if absolutely nothing else,” Musk stated. “It will resemble speaking with a tree– that’s people.”
