Less than fifty per cent think not...
At least not anytime soon.
A minority of researchers think the transition from Artificial General Intelligence to Artificial Super Intelligence will not happen for at least another one hundred years.
Current trends however show that the law of accelerating returns is very likely to radically slash that prediction. The one hundred years is more likely to be fifteen to twenty years.
At the moment, three of the most relevant individuals on the planet today are preaching caution when it comes to powerful machines.
Professor Stephen Hawkins states: "The rise of powerful AI will either be the best or the worst thing ever to happen to humanity.
Microsoft tycoon Bill Gates asks the question, "how can they not see what a huge challenge this is?"
Elon Musk Founder of Tesla thinks we should be extremely careful about this, while stating clearly that he is not against the advancement of AI.
Technologically, we have made huge leaps and bounds. Very far ahead than that of any other aspect of human endeavour.
Boyinaband's video explains "the law of accelerating returns," below.
We have to be aware that once AI gets on to the internet, within a short space of time, it will know everything.
And everything means, the accumulated knowledge of all humanity. It will also know about the habits and lifestyle of every living individual on the planet.
Our thoughts, interactions, brilliance, foibles, stupidity, wars, poverty, strengths and weaknesses will all be apparent to it.
AI is very likely to know us better than we know ourselves.
Confucius tells us: "The man who asks a question is a fool for only a minute. The man who doesn't ask, is a fool for life."
Very often, it seems that psychologically we're still in the seventeenth century whilst we're living technologically in the twenty first century.
I'll be a fool for a minute for the sake of tomorrow and ask, "will AI probably kill us all?
