Is Artificial Intelligence Dangerous?

Microsoft co-founder also believes there’s reason to be cautious, but that the good can outweigh the bad if managed properly.

Since recent developments have made super-intelligent machines possible much sooner than initially thought, the time is now to determine what dangers artificial intelligence poses.

In a comment, Elon Musk wrote: “The pace of progress in artificial intelligence (I’m not referring to narrow AI) is incredibly fast.

It’s the AI applications that play a critical role in ensuring safety that Musk, Hawking, and others were concerned about when they proclaimed their hesitation about the technology.

While we haven’t achieved super-intelligent machines yet, the legal, political, societal, financial and regulatory issues are so complex and wide-reaching that it’s necessary to take a look at them now so we are prepared to safely operate among them when the time comes.

It might even be plausible to expect that the nuclear arms race will be replaced with a global autonomous weapons race.
