Scientist Explains Why Dogs Can Smell Better Than Robots

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
Dogs can smell explosives like landmines, and detect medical conditions including seizures, diabetes, and many forms of cancer -- with up to 98% accuracy. Inventor Andreas Mershin wants to replicate that -- and put a nose in every cell phone. WIRED's Emily Dreyfuss spoke with Mershin to find out why that's easier said than done, and to learn what building a robotic nose has taught us about smell

This video blew my mind, and made it clear to me that this technology is a LONG way off. Not even sure machine learning can solve this one as well as dogs can. When he said that they were not just detecting cancer through odors, but actually -deducing- that there was cancer based on some unknown algorithm in the dog's head I was floored. That is just insane to think that dogs have that ability.

In the future, governments will have an exact record of your smell that they got through your phone, and they'll be able to send robots with supercanine smell to find you. At least we'll probably only have to live through a few years of that before AI goes rogue and kills us all by changing our atmosphere because they realized all that oxygen was inconveniencing them in some way.

So. Here is a little thought: how about looking at what each molecule makes the dog feel and then compare to what the dog feel after smelling cancer cells or something? Like, with how the dog feel I mean the area of the brain that lits up, of course.

My parents are so paranoid about our Alexa they won't take it outside the kitchen. They don't even use Siri. God only knows how paranoid they'd be of a phone that smells them. It'd be cool, and good luck, but lol, they'll be so spooked.

I really don't get it where this chick took the 53% result of people rather lose their smell than phone but it sounds like a lie. People lying just to have a subject to go on about. maybe 53% of the young don't have a phone what da fux
reply

53% of young people would rather loose their smell instead of a phone? that is so dumb. Are the young that dumb to choose to lose a irreplaceble gift instead of a phone that is easily replaced?

It seems like you need to train a (sort of) neural network type of AI (giant computing power size) for 2-3 years by sniffing around and then really hone it on what -function- you are after.

I remember some old joke that joked that dogs didn't actually have great smell, but people believed they did, so they pretended to be and were actually just physic or something.
reply

I know that they teach gambian rats to detect explosives because gambians live long enough. But cats f. in. live longer than dogs or rats, why don't they teach them?
reply

You probably need a quantum computer for that I want to create an artificial nose but need similar design to a dog nose or better for this I need a quantum computer.
