IBM's Watson is now a cancer doctor more accurate than its human counterparts. You've seen AI win chess and gameshows, but now with the introduction of deep learning algorithms and the automation revolution underway, AI seems to be steadily gearing up for a center stage appearance in the third industrial revolution. Considering this new revolution is about putting technology in the hands of every human to crowd source pursuits formerly controlled by corporations, AI has the potential to uplift the entire human species. However AI has been shown to possess bias (Twitter bots learning bigotry, the Chinese AIs turned off after criticizing China and praising democracies), and humans have shown an almost addictive attachment to information technologies (the infinite scroll trap, the red alert on apps, the dopamine high from social media), so considering both, to what extent should AI be allowed into our lives, especially after General Intelligence AIs appear? Are you afraid of a superintelligent AI? Are you a transhumanist patiently awaiting your Messiah? Let me know.
