The Future of Artificial Intelligence by SciFri published on 2015-04-10T20:45:11Z More at http://scifri.me/98uvwx Technologist Elon Musk, Bill Gates, and Steve Wozniak named artificial intelligence as one of humanity's biggest existential risks. Will robots outpace humans in the future? Should we set limits on A.I.? Our panel of experts discusses what questions we should ask as research on artificial intelligence progresses. Genre Science Comment by printjunky Ira gets this completely wrong. The guest was referring to researchers accelerating their wisdom about the consequences of A.I., so that it can catch up with A.I. research, instead of slowing down A.I. research while the ethics discussion catches up, NOT, as Ira misunderstands it, to increase the wisdom being given to the Artificial Intelligence mechanisms. Jarring and awkward, as was much of this piece. 2015-04-13T07:25:17Z Comment by dsbigham This is why STEM doesn't make sense without the Humanities. These people are clearly not equipped to have this discussion (as you can tell from their clunky analogies). Call a historian, call an anthropologist, call Karen Barad. 2015-04-12T19:49:18Z Comment by Carl Ellement Ummm inventing fire? I'm sure it was just discovered. Also, it would of already been witnessed in nature. 2015-04-11T17:59:40Z Comment by rub3nmv We seem to forget that Asimov's robot novels were mostly about how ambiguous those laws are and the conflicts they bring in some cases. 2015-04-11T12:12:58Z
