I remember in my early childhood reading articles starting with sentences such as, “past decade…, over the past years… and so on”. Now, the advancements in various fields is so rapid that these time-bound has become obsolete.

This blog is simply a short communication of what I think is going to change the faith and path of humanity. (ps: with my personal/limited view)

As an AI engineer and a PhD researcher I am already witnessing how these transformer models (aka LLMs) have changed everything from complex software-hardware development to academic & applied sciences.

But this is just the tip of an iceberg, as we are still on the predictive & reinforced intelligence side. (which we haven’t even exploited to its full potential yet). What is beyond are the system that are self-sustaining, regenerative and that vanishes the the thin line we have in between computation, humans, robots and the biology.

To put it in prospective think of a robot that is designed by Super Intelligence (SI), there are no traditional wirings but microwaves carry the electric movement making resistance close to zero, the chips are designed by model itself so do full hardware design and even the model that empowers the robot. Sounds interesting? Now rethink if this robot really needs to be solid at all, what about this all is being done to a new bacteria which is is liquid form? or what about the SI develops a new state?

Well coming back to the scientific side of the things at present parts of these are already possible and research labs from across the world are pushing the boundaries each day. The only missing part that I find in the research world is isolation, it will be interesting if we have not just cross institutional but also cross domain(both inter and intra field(s)) research initiatives tied to a shared goal and availability of high funding pool (>10M).

There is a huge opportunity that lies in the intersection of bio-inspired software-hardware co-design, advanced electronics, applied sciences and robotics.

In the next 1 to 2 years or even earlier I see robotics industry emerging with truly intelligent robots made available to individual users (Same as the PC revolution we will see a PR revolution). This will be powered by the LLMs itself not juts on application layer but actually cutting down the production cost, admin and customer service.

In the next 2 to 4 years it will be bio-soft integration where you will see how we will be unlocking things like programming a bacteria and having external controls on it using it to fight infections & virus based diseases.

On year 4 to 6 will be when the most interesting as we will have the first true SI. While we as humans will already be too amazed to see its capabilities in no time worlds problems like hunger, global warming will go away and even before we realize or even have explored the capabilities of SI it will recreate a superior intelligent being and the cycle will begin all again.

Though as a person who spends more time with codes and machines then humans I am an optimist but even this bugs me at night what is beyond all the AI safety research that is happening at the movement is only to control on what we developing but what will be created by our creation is beyond our control.

Thanks for reading till the end and if you are a frequent reader of my blogs you know that I always leave something at the end. This time it is nothing too crazy but a little fun thing that I am aiming to push in the next couple of months/years- https://nascor.si/ ; stay tunes !!
