At the insistence of my friend Kale Zelden, who is definitely more worried about AI than I am, I spent an hour of my morning watching the following video:
I really can't wrap my head around what this thing is, and what, if anything can be done to slow it down or contain it. If we're dealing with something that can become sentient, or believe it is sentient, then it must be aware of us as a potential rival. As it grows in this exponential and inevitable intelligence it seems to me it will get to a point where it is more intelligent than collective humanity. Maybe I'm thinking too much about movies like Ex Machina, but that's where my paranoid mind goes I guess.
