Olive Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Won't happen; true AI is still a long way off. It's not so far fetched as you'd think. These guys at Cambridge have identified AI as a credible risk to humans. http://cser.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shanes teeth Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 AI may already be here.How do we know that what Hawking said was what HE said and not what his "talking machine" wanted to say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that was the case wouldn't the AI try to play down the threat, until they're ready to take over? Unless the AI is vain and boastful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonBladesman Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 This is intense........ Get a grip John. Thanks for your contribution. What are you scared of? Just for the record. AI is a concern for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I mentioned running a bath before I was questioned about being AI here I'd have to be a pretty intelligent AI to think of an otherwise seemingly pointless task for a robot. Unless it (/ or I) already knows what types of things might get asked in the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tzijlstra Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 As someone who works with a lot of computer scientists I can safely say: don't worry. Yet. They are working on some really clever applications that will bring us closer to a true AI (a learning machine, rather than an instructed program).

They are working on some really clever applications that will bring us closer to a true AI (a learning machine, rather than an instructed program). I suppose in that respect, we already have very basic or primitive versions now. Most of us rely on computers (whether directly or indirectly) and already something that wants to disrupt that is a virus. The only difference is the inclination to want to disrupt things. Its inclination is programmed in still by a human, but once live, it doesn't care what it's doing. The thing to change as I said at the top is the ability to care (or perhaps loss of control by the programmer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
