- mkaic 4y agoYeah, this entire article read like a giant example of the logical fallacy of personal incredulity. None of the author's claims are actually backed up in any meaningful way.
- galaxyLogic 4y agoI'd say risks associated with poorly understood things, are very poorly understood. Why? Because we don't really know what we are talking about, when we are talking about "poorly understood things". If we fear something we don't know we don't really know what we fear, because we don't understand what is the thing we are afraid of. I'm saying someone should come up with more concrete threat scenarios caused by "AI becoming sentient". Are we really afraid of AI becoming sentient, or are we afraid of AI becoming "super-intelligent"?
