Reacting to “Can we build AI without losing control over it?” by Sam Harris
In this video, I react to Sam Harris discussing the possibility of losing control over artificial intelligence. He argues that we need to be very careful about how we build AI, and that we need to make sure that we always have a way to shut it down if necessary.
Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and Superintelligent AI might be something we have to address in the near future.
