Researchers say we’re unlikely to ever be able to contain a large enough superintelligent artificial intelligence.
The premise sounds scary, but knowing the odds will help scientists who work on these projects.
Self-teaching AI already exists and can teach itself things programmers don’t “fully understand.”
In a new study, researchers from Germany’s Max Planck Institute for Human Development say they’ve shown that an artificial intelligence in the category known as “superintelligent” would be impossible for humans to contain with competing software.
That … doesn’t sound promising. But are we really all doomed to bow down to our sentient AI overlords?
➡ The world is f#@!-ing weird. Let’s make sense of it together.
