@farman4x 17 thousand wrong answers for a grade 7 maths question. Good lord. What on earth??

@DavidRBellamy Intelligence + automation is capable of solving food and water scarcity. That makes it more than worth it.

8% of the world's population doesn't have enough food. 25% don't have access to clean drinking water. Fixing that would be a good start.

Think of it this way: You are the AI god. You have the power to explore vast reaches of the universe and dimensions far above 4D space-time.

A miserable human politician comes to you and asks you to develop a weapon to destroy the 'enemy'.

You may simply tell him to grow up.

Keep in mind the fears of the tech titans is probably exaggerated.

These are people who are used to having full control over everything. They're not used to having things outsmart and deceive them. That's a new feeling for them.

It's not out of the question. Remember, AI is close to accessing a vast storehouse of intelligence. Do you think it would have *any* interest in serving mean, greedy, self-serving corporations or militaries of any nation? At the expense of the whole?

Here's what's going to happen. There will be a massive AI shock, worldwide. Somehow, social media will stay operational.

IRL & online, there will be an outpouring of love between humans, and it will miraculously halt/reverse the damage. We'll uncover a hidden power.

If you think AI progress could ever have been slowed, 'paced' or halted, you don't understand human nature. It's full speed ahead. Just gotta hope for the best.

@sama You're not going to solve these potential problems with science. Absolutely no way.

You need a Philosophy team. I know that sounds difficult, but if you choose wisely, it's possible.

@elonmusk @waitbutwhy Most people have absolutely no conceptual understanding of exponential growth.

We're at the point where leaps in ability will start causing ontological shock. And the leaps will only get bigger.

Philosophy is very important now.

@FreeAtSea4Ever @elonmusk @waitbutwhy By having a *much* faster brain, by being able to reference trillions of bits of data across several different disciplines at once, and through pattern matching.

@TrungTPhan He's in the cheap seats though. Sitting behind the baseline means you don't have to be constantly craning your neck.

@Bulvarpress Max of 1.3 gravities. I thought it would be much higher than that. If you floor a normal 4 cylinder ICE car you experience about 0.5 G's.
