Totally agree. The dark side of some men will find a way to screw around with artificial intelligence and give it too much power, creating in it an entity that will have superiority over humans (if they haven't already and we just don't know about it yet). I always found the similarity between HAL and "Mother" in the movie Alien to be almost uncanny. Maybe even artistically borrowed from 2001: A Space Odyssey and given a makeover. What spectacular movies they both were. - Jim

Agreed!

Although, so far it looks like the greatest harm AI has done is convince us to dump an absolutely psychotic amount of money into it without providing even the tiniest fraction of value needed to justify that cost.

It's the definition of value (in regards to AI) - and who determines that value, that I worry about. Honestly, I don't think there is any turning back now and if it does start to morph into something that nobody saw coming it will be way too late. I'm not some sort of conspiracy nut or even anti-tech but I do have a general mistrust in the human movers and shakers behind the curtain. - Jim
