Most still believe that "really intelligent AI" is still a long way off, from what I have seen. Many have started to believe there can be a lot of harm caused by the systems well before then, however.
- ramraj07 3y agoFrom the article: “The idea that this stuff could actually get smarter than people — a few people believed that,” he said. “But most people thought it was way off. And I thought it was way off. I thought it was 30 to 50 years or even longer away. Obviously, I no longer think that.”
- ben_w 3y agoIt depends what you mean by "intelligence". For any given definition so far, when the AI can do that, we have changed our minds about if that counts. So, when I was a kid, "intelligence" meant being good at chess and maths, having a good memory, knowing a lot of trivia, and being able to speak a second language. On all of these things except language, a raspberry pi and a cheap memory card beats essentially all humans. For language, even a dictionary lookup — where "hydraulic ram" might become "water sheep" — will beat many, but I'm not sure it would be a majority. But that's ok, we've changed what we meant by "intelligent" since then.

- ben_w 3y agoWow, that's surprising and impressive. Thanks for updating me!
