Can we build AI without losing control over it? | Sam Harris
RE: Can we build AI without losing control over it? | Sam Harris
@ Mathilda

You really think A.I.s aren't going to keep improving?

I'm fascinated by A.I. I'm not trained in it but I fascinate it and I'd love to study it or even get a job in it. I've been fascinated by A.I. all my life. Fascinated enough that I don't even care if it would destroy the world I'd still want to improve the field if I could one day Big Grin

I'm fascinated enough by A.I. that it's almost an obsession and I sometimes wish I were a robot, lol.

Not even joking. Since I was about 10 or 11 years old I developed compulsions that feel rather to me like my own algorithms because I'm so obsessed with rules and scripts and patterns and I just wish I was an A.I.

Sorry if this post is a bit weird, lol.
