Given the zero percent historical success rate of apocalyptic predictions, coupled with the incrementally gradual development of AI over the decades, we have plenty of time to build in fail-safe systems to prevent any such AI apocalypse.

It's true that the upheaval brought by the arrival of AI will initially disrupt existing employment patterns as roles are redefined and shared between man and machine. On the flip side there is the potential for job creation and enterprise opportunities, brought about by the displacement of mundane and repetitive work, freeing up valuable time and creativity applicable to roles higher up the value chain -- jobs where people, rather than machines, are essential.

Whether we are based on carbon or on silicon makes no fundamental difference; we should each be treated with appropriate respect.

Computers will overtake humans with AI at some [point] within the next 100 years. When that happens, we need to make sure the computers have goals aligned with ours.

There is no official or generally agreed-upon definition of artificial intelligence.... But this lack of consensus hasn't stopped companies great and small from including AI as a revolutionary new feature in their smart TVs, smart plugs, smart headphones and other smart macguffins. (Smart, of course, only in the loosest sense: like most computers, they're fundamentally dumb as rocks.)

AI skeptics are unconvincing when they say it's an unsolvable technological problem, and that there's something intrinsically unique about biological brains. Our brains are biological machines, but they're machines nonetheless; they exist in the real world and adhere to the basic laws of physics. There's nothing unknowable about them.

In case you are sitting here pondering this question thinking that AI will never eliminate human intelligence because humans still have to program and train them, that isn't entirely true. Right now, there are of course still researchers, programmers, and engineers who train robots and rudimentary AI systems. However, more and more code -- much of it in relation to AI -- is actually being written by AI programs already. Programmers today no longer have to write long complex codes for AI telling the robot to do this or that. They simply have to write code that tells a program to write code telling the AI to do this or that.

Software is eating the world, but AI is going to eat software.

The insight at the root of artificial intelligence was that these "bits" (manipulated by computers) could just as well stand as symbols for concepts that the machine would combine by the strict rules of logic or the looser associations of psychology.

Each practitioner thinks there's one magic way to get a machine to be smart, and so they're all wasting their time in a sense. On the other hand, each of them is improving some particular method, so maybe someday in the near future, or maybe it's two generations away, someone else will come around and say, "Let's put all these together," and then it will be smart.

When people are told that a computer is intelligent, they become prone to changing themselves in order to make the computer appear to work better, instead of demanding that the computer be changed to become more useful.

AI is only as good as the data that we can feed it.

Artificial intelligence may well help solve the most complex problems humankind faces, like curing cancer and climate change -- but in the near term, it is also likely to empower surveillance, erode privacy and turbocharge telemarketers.

Even the smartest AI will relentlessly follow its code once set in motion -- and this means that, if we are meaningfully to debate the adaptation of a human world into a machine-mediated one, this must take place at the design stage.

TOM CHATFIELD

If a machine can teach itself how to fly a helicopter upside down, it may be able to teach itself other things too, like how to find love on Tinder, or recognize your voice when you speak into your iPhone, or, at the outer reaches, design a Terminator-spewing Skynet.

It's clear that A.I. is getting increasingly sophisticated at doing what humans do--but more efficiently and cheaply. What's less clear is whether those gains trump the huge implications it would have for the future of work.

Just what is artificial intelligence anyway? Definitions differ depending on who you ask, but in the broadest sense it's any kind of intelligence that has been artificially created. Obviously.

One reason I'm not worried about the possibility that we will soon make machines that are smarter than us, is that we haven't managed to make machines until now that are smart at all. Artificial intelligence isn't synthetic intelligence: It's pseudo-intelligence.

The AI of the past used brute-force computing to analyze data and present them in a way that seemed human. The programmer supplied the intelligence in the form of decision trees and algorithms. Imagine that you were trying to build a machine that could play tic-tac-toe. You would give it specific rules on what move to make, and it would follow them. Today's AI uses machine learning in which you give it examples of previous games and let it learn from the examples. The computer is taught what to learn and how to learn and makes its decisions. What's more, the new AIs are modeling the human mind itself using techniques similar to our learning processes.

The popular definition of artificial intelligence research means designing computers that think as people do, and who needs that? There is no commercial reason to duplicate human thought because there is no market for electronic people, although it might be nice if everyone could have a maid and butler. There are plenty of organic people, and computer vendors can't compete with the modern low-cost technology used in making people.
