“Current frameworks to regulate the technology in the U.S. and Europe are a “great start,” and countries will have to work together on international agreements, similar to the Paris climate accord, to ensure it’s developed responsibly, Pichai said.”
Right. Most countries are ignoring their commitments in the Paris Climate Accord. If the same happens with AI, watch out.
MISINFORMATION ALERT
Most countries have not met their goal in the Paris Climate accord. There’s a big difference between that statement and “most countries are ignoring their commitments” one implies that there’s no effort being made, while one implies that there is. Pretty simple to actually be correct about things when one’s trying, huh?
Sorry, we’re the only ones that decided to straight up reject the agreement that you know, EVERYONE wants. We’re the losers in that equation, much like you in our regular debates.
“Electricity Can’t Hold Candle to Artificial Intelligence in Significance.” Pure bunk. If my electricity goes off, I’ll be here, though pretty miserable. Without electricity, Artificial Intelligence doesn’t exist, period. I can live happily without A.I., but not electricity. The arrogance of these tech prophets never fails to amaze.
I think you’re missing the point of the article. Electricity is something we utilize in our day to day lives constantly, but do you really think a hundred years ago they realized the true extent of what we would use it for? How could they have?
That’s what I took the article to be. We haven’t even realized the extent of how AI could revolutionize the world, because we don’t have it yet. Your post almost seems to latch onto the idea that we’ll continue to power our homes in the future exclusively through electricity. We may discover other sources of power. Maybe we’ll live in some effed up Cronenberg world where large disgusting genetically modified bugs are birthed specifically to provide power to our houses. That’s kind of what makes the future interesting, it’s truly unknown.
Sure, lots of these tech geniuses may be kind of arrogant. Do you really think you’d have been able to have a conversation with Steve Jobs? What makes them good at what they do is precisely what makes them arrogant a lot of the time. Sure there are charlatans like that blonde lady from the documentary, but there are also legitimate geniuses building our future. I’d rather one of them than the politicians destroying the country with partisan bickering and claims of “fake science” whenever it affects the bottom line.
I’ll bet one time in history someone once said, “Candles can’t hold a candle to electricity,” which is true because candles melt once exposed to electricity.
Here’s a scary thought:

Arrogance is not listening to someone who obviously knows more than you do.

Think about it.
God I wish we could post GIF reactions.
