'Superintelligence' synthesizes the alarmist view of AI as both dangerous and inevitable I find the 'inevitable' part quite interesting; and agree. Say we determine that if AI surpassed human intelligence we were doomed, with 100% certainty... I think it would not slow the march toward that end-point whatsoever. People would reason there is much progress to be had up-until that singularity. And since what constitute human-level intelligence is fuzzy, or that AI could mask its true cognitive abilities (see Ex Machina), a line will inevitably be crossed. Oddly, even if it meant something bad was in store, I hope to live to see that day. How exciting.
