THE FUTURE IS HERE

Artificial Intelligence will be Smarter than You in Your Lifetime

Adam Ford argues for the position that Artificial Intelligence Will Be Smarter Than Humans in the lifetime of a young adult (sometime before the end of this century). This was one side of a debate put on my Melbourne University for a philosophy course. Adam discusses reasons why AI becoming smarter than human level intelligence is likely and important – approaches to thinking about the issue, what evidence there is for AI becoming superintelligent, what experts think about this issue, the history of the idea., the potential outcomes of superhuman AI, what’s at stake.. and more.

Why discuss this issue? Why is AI important?
Intelligence is powerful, it’s a force multiplier.
