Excerpt:
"Jordan Peterson wonders if we have thought through how fast things are evolving:

They’re not building autonomous cars ….they’re building fleets of mutually intercommunicating autonomous robots, and each of them will be able to teach the other, because their nervous system will be the same. And when there is 10 million of them, and one of them learns something, all ten million of them learns it at the same time. So they’re not going to have to be very bright before they’re very very very smart.

We’re not connected wirelessly with the same platform. But robots, they are.

Once they get a little bit smart, they’re not going to stop at being a little bit smart for very long. They’re going to be unbelievably smart, like overnight.



Armed robots are frightening, but so is an artificial “best friend”
Homo Sapiens is a gregarious species. It’s hardwired. What happens when the scams, politics or fake romances are served up by a machine with infinite patience? When the machine knows our full history, our quirks and how we score on every aspect of personality and which approach worked best with thousands of others of similar inclinations?"

Governments and a few statist companies and universities are controlling research into AI.
None of them care about humanity, only power.

    if AI is made by the Left, we get the insane cylons from the very poor (story wise) new version

    if AI is self-evolved, we get the :wipe out humans" from the (good) original show

    LOL

    Possibly. Maybe every civilization in the galaxies "creates" their own 'conquering alien invaders" who in return destrows their own "creator".. then nothing is left anywhere...

    Sooner than we can anticipate, AI will exert its abilities over man. AI gathers info and "LEARNS" 24/7 and learns from his fellow bots at the speed of light.
    Resistance is futile. You will comply.
