Intelligent Extinction, ASI

from Failing Up · host Timothy Mahar

I was listening to NPR, (while we still have it) the other day and the topic was ASI, Artificial Super Intelligence.  Now mind you, AI fills a void that has been identified in the majority of our civilized species.  A void we won't get back because we have become dependent on the technology.This next generation of Advanced Intelligence is still in the very early design phase. The result will be robots that are vastly more intelligent.  In essence we are designing the alien  force that will cause our extinction.   The Dinosaurs had and excuse, they did not create the asteroid. timothymahar.org
