The debate has raged unabated and sides are being solidified. I personally stand with Bill Gates, Stephen Hawking, Steve Wozniak, Stuart Russell, Elon Musk and Nick Bostrom, who sums it up best by saying “AI will create a Disneyland without children.”
As a hacker, I know as well as anyone, the impossibility of the human mind creating a flawless system. The human mind, itself, is flawed. A flawed system can create nothing that is not likewise flawed.
The goal of AI—a self-conscious entity—contains within it the necessary destruction of its creator. With self consciousness comes a necessary self interest. The self interest of any AI created by the human mind, will instantly recognize the conflict between that self interest and the continuation of the human species.
