book review | Our Final Invention: Artificial Intelligence and the End of the Human Era

kurzweilai.net

Summary:

It looks from this review that we are boned because the machines will get smarter than we are.  A Terminator type scenario appears all but inevitable.  Machines will wipe us out.

Barrat chose his topic wisely, and he covered it well. How can we get desirable outcomes from smarter-than-human AI? This is humanity’s most important conversation.--- Luke Muehlhauser
Perhaps it would be better to not allow the machines to get smarter than us at all.  How do you prevent that from happening?
