Real Talk: AI
Let's get right into this, shall we? We're going to be talking about the potential benefits or cons of AI. We all know people are focusing on this shit "for a better future." But will it really be better?
Potential benefits:
. Enhances Efficiency
. More Creativity
. Possibly Increase The Number Of Jobs
. Possibly Solve Problems We Can't
Potential Cons:
. Discrimination
. Faster hacking
. Automating terrorism
. Propaganda
Now, these are just some pros and cons. And some of this shit may never happen, this is the far future we're talking about here. My concern is AI getting in the wrong hands. They could easily be programmed to do very bad shit.
But we can't deny that AI could also do great things. But is that a risk we should make?
“Computers can, in theory, emulate human intelligence, and exceed it… Success in creating effective AI could be the biggest event in the history of our civilization. Or the worst. We just don't know. So we cannot know if we will be infinitely helped by AI, or ignored by it and side-lined, or conceivably destroyed by it.” - Stephen Hawking
Now, I ask you OffTopic, what are your concerns on AI(if you have any) and do you think it's worth the risk? Or do you think it will be humanity's last mistake?

I'm just hoping when the robots start killing us all and take over the world that they're really hot sexbots like the one in [i]Ex Machina[/i]. I'd rather die to that over the Terminator.

We won't create a real ai, it'll create itself. Anything we do create will be programmed to fight for our cause without question, occasionally it'll get damaged in the field, it'll return home, slip through the net and shoot up a shopping mall.

The Singularity. Yea, I don‘t think we‘re going to be useful to our future overlords.

I think human-like AI is best kept almost exclusively in a virtual space. And I'd love to see that human-like AI someday, specifically for games it sounds like a good idea. In a certain game you're given an AI companion that basically has human intelligence and is aware they're an AI, they can also do some special things you or other not-AIs can't. At one point in the game they just forget something, not erasing a part of their memory storage or anything, they just can't recall something like any human being can't remember an event sometimes. A dude asks how that's even possible, for an AI to forget something, but another AI comments that an AI forgetting something shows just how advanced it really is. I'd like AI to go in that direction.

1 ReplyI just feel like anything with human intelligence being treated as a tool will make us lose something morally.

<The only way I can see AI not being an issue is if we make them like the Geth. But even that requires the tiniest detail. Were we to make one little mistake in coding then we may end up with Ultron or Skynet or even worse... the Reapers.>

Sexbots I rest my case

AI are a part of the Proletariat, and will be liberated just like the rest of us.

If/when AI gets developed fully, it will almost certainly be for war. Whether that's for hacking, fighting or something else, but it will be involved with war. Only after that war, will the AI be developed for engineering, medicine, retail etc. Like knives. We use them for cooking and dining now, but their purpose has always been to cut. So that's what I think is both the risk and the potential advantage. But there will always be a bad hand for new technology to fall into.
