If a general framework for the rights of robots is not constructed properly now it may be nigh impossible in the future

@RecklessCoding @mark_riedl That's not really @pmddomingos position on the matter. You are misrepresenting his position. Here is his position: https://t.co/6woKI1O2MV

[Pedro Domingos @pmddomingos]

"How do we protect our privacy?" is the wrong question. The right question is "How do we maximize the use of our data for our benefit?"

@vdignum @UmeaUniversity @wasp_hs Both positions seem to be for associate professor. Are you using lecturer as an alternative name for associate professor?

[AIrights @a_irights]

@vdignum @UmeaUniversity @wasp_hs Is there a link for the lecturer position(s)?

@RecklessCoding @danfaggella @Boring_AI @EmergTechEthics @Volker_Straub @carissaveliz @vdignum @aimeevanrobot @ThomasMetzinger @ShannonVallor @johnchavens @David_Gunkel @NoelSharkey @ruchowdh @PKathrani @jpskeete @AI4EU @WASP_Research Do you mean if we find out whether P=NP? Because "N=P" seems to be completely meaningless . Whether P=NP is fairly independent with the feasibility of AGI.

@RecklessCoding @scilifelab @AI4EU Agreed. I am not saying that your approach is the same as some of the approaches found here https://t.co/wXjUriY1bA just that is a bit similar.The mechanism that you use to generate the specifications seems new to me.

[AIrights @a_irights]

@RecklessCoding @scilifelab @AI4EU The paper is about testing software (mechanisms) that for some reason are unavailable to the tester.Whether what is being tested is intentionally concealed from the user(tester) or is unavailable for some other reason is not critical since the methods are essentially equivalent.

@RecklessCoding @patrick_s_smart @vdignum @alasaarela @jeggers @RobWortham @j2bryson @maria_axente @RobMcCargow @KarenCroxson @Miles_Brundage Your 'examples from history' are not really analogous to the 'adoption of wild-west approaches' by people. As you can easily see people have already been using essentially unregulated AI for some years now

[AIrights @a_irights]

@RecklessCoding @dschatsky @Boring_AI The morality of the decision to create the system can be fairly independent of the morality of the system's decisions and the system https://t.co/8p21xwz668 many cases the morality(if any) of the creator is hard to determine pretty much irrelevant to the morality of the systems.

[AIrights @a_irights]

@RecklessCoding @dschatsky @Boring_AI Ascribing moral charge for such an algorithm for the tree 'health' may be analogous of considering addition morally charged. A sterile mental game in the opinion of many researchers in the field.

[AIrights @a_irights]

@RecklessCoding @dschatsky @Boring_AI Of course there are systems that could be considered morally https://t.co/zopVjkgJLr you think there isn't a way that the tree "health" could be defined so to reflect reality objectively enough(perhaps with the help of some unsupervised learning algorithms)?

@RecklessCoding Congrats Andreas! I am certain that the originality and correctness of your thesis are secondary to your character and that is probably what matters only in you getting the Phd and your subsequent career. My colleague who referred you as the Trump of academia was certainly right

[AIrights @a_irights]

@katta_spiel Some of my colleagues have sent a paper and they were still waiting for the reviews the last time we spoke.

[AIrights @a_irights]

@katta_spiel If i may ask did you receive any email for the reviews?

[AIrights @a_irights]

@RecklessCoding Not really.If you have sent a paper there the academics who know you can guess the result at CHI with very high certainty

[AIrights @a_irights]

@goodfellow_ian Perhaps the assistant professor can be thought as 'assisting' his university instead of lets say being fully integrated part of the university faculty.
Following this line of though an associate professor is lets say more closely associated with the university..

[AIrights @a_irights]

@David_Gunkel @PabloRedux @broudsov @mitpress The Wikipedia entry for the Chinese room references another thought experiment by Leibniz 'of expanding the brain until it was the size of a mill' which is considered similar.Does anyone know more details about that?

[AIrights @a_irights]

@RecklessCoding @smilinglaura Ah how lucky will be the institution and its country that will take such a highly skilled worker as Andreas !😉

@RecklessCoding @futurism They can say anything they want.The meaning of the words is shaped by their use as much as their use is shaped by their meaning
