Transcript: On another episode of this video, I looked at what happens if you type, “Is artificial intelligence...” into Google to see what people are asking. Today, I typed, “Will artificial intelligence...” to get an idea of what people are asking it is going to do. Here is the full list, without any omissions. Will artificial intelligence first: Take over? Take over the world? Destroy the human race? Take over jobs? Destroy humanity? Replace humans? Eliminate my job? Create jobs? Take jobs? It's a pretty downer of a list. I mean, if you think about it, you don't see: “Will artificial intelligence create universal prosperity?” “Will it cure all diseases?” “Will it prolong human life?” “Will it help solve all of our social problems?” And all of these things are legitimate things that many people think AI is going to be able to do. But the fact remains that, in the minds of what is clearly a very large majority of people, there's far more concern about the negative things that this kind of technology will do than there is hope for the positive things. https://ift.tt/2O9IfyV gigaomhttp://ifttt.com/images/no_image_card.pngSeptember 19, 2019 at 09:36AM https://ift.tt/eA8V8J
