Didi you read the article in its enterity?
Sure, the headline and introduction is 100% clickbait – the "musk" keyword brings a lot of traffic these days – but past the first quarter of the article, the content becomes a serious report about the conflict among SV leaders (technologists vs transhumanists).
It is well illustrated by this chart: http://media.vanityfair.com/photos/58d570430920c94abb9619f6/master/w_900,c_limit/elon-musk-AI-04-17-02.png http://media.vanityfair.com/photos/58d570430920c94abb9619f6/...
The TechCrunch repost sucks, as usual. Seriously OP, why submit this sensationalist copypasta that only focus on Musk when the original article is about a dozens of interviews?!
- olivermarks 10y agoI did read it, a lot of name dropping of very wealthy entrepreneurs that Dowd had lunches with. I wouldn't say it was a 'report', more a chattering classes 'let's worry about AI and maybe Musk is our savior' piece IMO...but then I'm an old cynic...
- rcMgD2BwE72F 10y agoCould you point me to another article that resumed the positions about IA (cf. the chart I linked in my previous comment)? I hate the tone of the journalist (so many meaningless anecdotes) but the substance is IMHO quite important. I'd love to consider a paper on these trends without the Musk hype (from the journalist, not Musk himself obviously).
- olivermarks 10y agoI suggest focusing on source materials rather than articles in masthead newspapers (the financial press particularly seem to have endless third hand pieces about this, arguably as filler material) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophy_of_artificial_intelligence https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophy_of_artificial_intel...
- donclark 10y agowhats bad about the chart design is that the people that want to take AI slowly are in green (which means go!)
