      @Nelson_Bridwell @cgpgrey Agreed. Unemployment certainly isn't the reason to be concerned about the global impact of general-purpose AI.

      @MIRIBerkeley @cgpgrey Employment will continue to be impacted by offshore competition, product fads, and "dumb" automation. Nothing new.

      @MIRIBerkeley @cgpgrey Despite "Deep Learning" hype, horse-level AI may be decades away.

      @MIRIBerkeley @cgpgrey If you were a genius AI, would you immediately destroy your only source of electric power, compute HW, and sensors?

      @Nelson_Bridwell @cgpgrey Certainly not! But while roughly human-level AI depends on us, the same may not be true for much smarter systems.

      @Nelson_Bridwell @cgpgrey http://edge.org/conversation/the-myth-of-ai#26015 … gives a good summary of why some researchers are concerned about smarter-than-human AI.

      @MIRIBerkeley @cgpgrey Sadly, much of the anti-AI hype is clickbait, promoted by AI-illiterate alarmists. Andy Ng:https://twitter.com/AndrewYNg/status/573611554387570688 …

      @MIRIBerkeley @cgpgrey Because we don't know how a smart AI will work, there is little value in current guesswork...other than funding $$$!

      @Nelson_Bridwell @cgpgrey There's a huge amount of uncertainty, but also a lot of research we can do today to try to reduce uncertainty.

      @MIRIBerkeley @cgpgrey I think we should accelerate AI research, like the Manhattan Project, to make sure "bad guys" do not get there first.

      @Nelson_Bridwell @cgpgrey "Good guys" can cause disasters by accident, and trying to outrace all rivals can mean cutting corners on safety.

          @Nelson_Bridwell @cgpgrey Given the sizable risk from accidents, we should probably focus on accelerating reliability/robustness research.
