https://www.economist.com/open-future/2018/09/10/do-the-benefits-of-artificial-intelligence-outweigh-the-risksConcerns about the misuse of AI are definitely something to be taken seriously.
Prominent scientists and technologists like the late Stephen Hawking and Elon Musk have voiced concern for the risks associated with the accelerating development of artificial intelligence (AI).
Is all of this even worth developing? I feel our track record is a good indicator of how we're going to use it.
The most threatening:
Furthermore, increased automation gives more physical control to digital systems, making cyberattacks even more dangerous. Regulation can ensure that AI engineers are employing best practices in cybersecurity and limiting distribution of military technology. Considering the portability of AI, enforcing these rules will be difficult and international cooperation will likely be necessary.
International cooperation? Don't make me laugh. Looks like we're doomed.
It won't be taken seriously, as the profit-hungry barely have any care for the downsides and more than often, only care about the upsides.
We won't be destroyed, but systematically and "accidentally" devastated by AI in only certain areas, depending on who is in control first.
