Artificial Intelligence HAL 9000 and Risk

There is much discussion about the potential use of Artificial Intelligence for purposes that are less noble or in the best interest of most of us. OK, no disagreement. But does anyone really believe that establishing a national government or worldwide agency to regulate AI will be a solution? I do not. Yes, the government may have a role. I would like to suggest that using the AI Engine with great data will serve society, organizations, and individuals, and at a minimum, the support for these concepts should be equal or more than wringing of hands.
