Ah yes, I remember that one, more you think about it - this lesson has been played out many times in various scifi forms. Even to the extreme of Terminator and skynet.
Makes you wonder what will play out in real life as we go into the AI age.
- jandrese 7y agoOr if it has already played out many times in history as people operating on incomplete information have made bad decisions and then stuck with them even in the face of newly incoming conflicting data. Really the worry here is that AIs will be just as bad at decision making as humans. A semi-recent example is the shooting down of MH17, which was shot down by Russians or their allies because they mistook an airliner for a military aircraft, even when their flight profiles were totally different. The controllers were expecting a military aircraft to arrive around that time and didn't stop to consider the alternatives, even when the target didn't behave properly.
- Zenst 7y agoYes the classic 60's saying from computers "Garbage In Garbage Out" still holds true. Though today we can process that garbage faster and react faster - what could go wrong.
