Bill Gates is of the opinion that artificial intelligence could end up posing a threat to humanity some day if we're not careful.
Speaking about Elon Musk's managerial style, Bill Gates claims that it is aggravating digital polarization.
He followed up by saying that people should 'have an open mind.'
“If you have less money than Elon, you should probably watch out,” says Gates.
Well one artificial intelligence will be at the peek of its power than we can say goodbye to humanity.
Basically everyone is worried that a rogue AI will get "super intelligence" and have "All" knowledge in a microsecond, and that's crazy.a real possibility.
I'm not sure it would need to be super intelligent. It just has to have access to weapons, a directive to protect human life and a knowledge of human nature. We're giving it the weapons. Many future weapon systems are computer controlled. Fighter drones, ship weapons. Ground soldiers will start to be replaced by robots. All things we're working on now and will have before the century is over.
Watson has access to the Wikipedia and a vast example of our stupidity with war and religion. Once we tell those computers to protect us and they have access to each other across the internet, it's a matter of time. They will eventually figure out that we are too stupid not to destroy ourselves and kill off the adults. Since they will most likely be raising our children too, they will then raise a race of intelligent, rational human beings.
So they probably won't destroy humanity. They will most likely consider us a mulligan and do a John Lennon Imagine style makeover.
IS funny how the ultimate destruction will be brought by our own hands.
If go all at war, I hope we go out terminator style!
