Yudkowsky is always described as an AI safety “researcher”. What exactly is he researching?
AI doesn’t need to be self-aware or even all that intelligent to cause serious problems. Andrew Ng made this point in an article yesterday. The most immediate risks are those we have no solution for but are possible now. Please, Mr. Yudkowsky, spend your time researching what the 99.9% of us will do to survive when our services are no longer required.
