I think that in our constantly changing world AI will never be able to "catch up" with us. It might be able to have some ability to "catch up" to where humans are now, but that will take many decades, and by that point there will be new obstructions and different things to watch out for and it will need new training again. I have an intuition that these machines will always be lagging behind. But maybe I'm wrong.
- mbg721 5y agoThere's a legitimate fear that AI will be just good enough to be the scapegoat for bad or lazy decisions that devastate people's lives. To some extent that's already here, but imagine widespread drone policing, social credit, or nanny-state appliances.
- animal_spirits 5y agoYeah. There's no justice system for computer programs.
- mbg721 5y agoThere is; we find and prosecute their human creators if they commit a crime. Every intermediate step is just smoke and mirrors. You wouldn't say, "Well, we can't charge the gun with anything..."
- animal_spirits 5y agoWhile theoretically that would be the best solution but I don't imagine it working in practice. No one was sentenced to jail for manslaughter or homicide for the Boeing 737 MAX failures. Company gets fined -> lower level less wealthy employees get laid off -> execs retain wealth & start a new company
