Can we build AI without losing control over it? | Sam Harris

RE: Can we build AI without losing control over it? | Sam Harris
@ Ham
Well, idk about that, like I said, not a fan - that vid is probably the first time I've seen his stuff, or at least I don't remember him from anything else.  I've heard that he ruffled some religious feathers, some regressive left feathers, and free will compatibilist feathers. Mostly from posts on these boards, lol.

@ Mathilda

Help me out, which of his assumptions are we discussing, and why aren't they sound? You're the expert here, I'd love to hear and understand your take. It's just that hearing you repeat that so ambiguously is uninformative, you know? Are we discussing that video, specifically, or are you referring to other things I haven't heard?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
