Artificial Intelligence (2001)
'If a robot could genuinely love a person, what responsibility does that person hold toward that Mecha in return? It's a moral question, isn't it?'

Artificial intelligence tool 'as good as experts' at detecting eye problems
“Artificial intelligence is showing the potential to transform the speed at which diseases can be diagnosed and treatments suggested, making the best use of the limited time of clinicians.”

A New AI Can Write Music as Well as a Human Composer
'reinforcement learning does not require labelled inputs and outputs of data. This allows the AI to “find its own way” around the data and improve its performance without being given any explicit instructions, which makes it easier to capture the diversity and variation found in creative arts like music.'https://futurism.com/a-new-ai-can-write-music-as-well-as-a-human-composer

What does AlphaGo vs Lee Sedol tell us about the interaction between humans and intelligent systems?
In game 2, AlphaGo’s 19th move or move 37 of the whole game appeared like “creative” to the commentators. As DeepMind mentions on their blog, move 37 was “so surprising they overturned hundreds of years of received wisdom”.

The AI That Has Nothing to Learn From Humans
“There’s some inhuman element in the way AlphaGo plays,” he says, “which makes it very difficult for us to just even sort of get into the game.” https://www.wired.co.uk/article/google-deepmind-atari
DeepMind's AI is an Atari gaming pro now
"Ours learns from the ground up. We give it a perceptual experience and it learns from that directly. It learns and adapts from unexpected things, and programme designers don't have to know the solution themselves." "The interesting and cool thing about AI tech is that it can actually teach you, as the creator, something new. I can't think of many other technologies that can do that."

Google DeepMind founder Demis Hassabis: Three truths about AI
'Can we build out from our perception, using deep-learning systems and learning from first principles? Can we build out all the way to high-level thinking and symbolic thinking?'. In order to do that we need to crack problems like learning concepts, things that humans find effortless but our current learning systems can't do."

Google’s AI Becomes World’s Best Chess Player
"If [AlphaZero] can be applied to other structured problems, such as protein folding, reducing energy consumption, or searching for revolutionary new materials, the resulting breakthroughs have the potential to drive forward human understanding and positively impact all of our lives.

BEYOND MAD?: THE RACE FOR ARTIFICIAL GENERAL INTELLIGENCE
‘If the state in question is less interested in achieving better global
coordination or more interested in exercising disproportionate influence globally, the AGI(Artificial General Intelligence) would provide such a state actor with a potentially incalculable advantage.
If there is no commensurate development on the global coordination problem which renders the balance of power stable, this scenario would lead to catastrophe.’
An Open Letter - Research Priorities for Robust and Beneficial Artificial Intelligence (Signed by Stephen Hawking)
‘We recommend expanded research aimed at ensuring that increasingly capable AI systems are robust and beneficial: our AI systems must do what we want them to do.’
'A white mask worked better': why algorithms are not colour blind
‘Let’s say you’re using systems that have been trained on lighter faces but the people most impacted by the use of this system have darker faces, is it fair to use that system on this specific population?’
Dehumanization of Warfare: Legal Implications of New Weapon Technologies
‘Unmanned systems, especially autonomous weapon systems, and cyber operations have in common that the human and its control are getting reduced and/or even removed out of more and more actions and decision-making processes.’
Frontier AI: How far are we from artificial “general” intelligence, really?
‘AI is getting vastly more powerful, and will get even more so as it runs on ever more powerful computers, which raises legitimate concerns about what would happen if its power was left in the wrong hands (whether human or artificial)’
Google DeepMind founder Demis Hassabis: Three truths about AI
"Either we need an exponential improvement in human behavior — less selfishness, less short-termism, more collaboration, more generosity — or we need an exponential improvement in technology.
"If you look at current geopolitics, I don't think we're going to be getting an exponential improvement in human behavior any time soon.
"That's why we need a quantum leap in technology like AI."
How Frightened Should We Be of A.I.?
“Without technology, our human extinction is imminent in the cosmic context of tens of billions of years, rendering the entire drama of life in our Universe merely a brief and transient flash of beauty.”
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/12/technology/china-trump-artificial-intelligence.html?action=click&module=RelatedCoverage&pgtype=Article®ion=Footer As China Marches Forward on A.I., the White House Is Silent
By 2013, China was already producing more research papers than the United States in the area of “deep learning,” the main technology driving the rise of A.I., according to the Obama reports.
The Trump administration’s budget for 2018 aims to cut science and technology research funding across the government by 15 percent, according to a report from the American Association for the Advancement of Science. “They are headed in precisely the wrong direction,”. “That is particularly concerning given that China has identified this as a strategic priority.”
Stephen Hawking warns that AI, ‘superhumans’ could wipe humanity in posthumous book
"While primitive forms of artificial intelligence developed so far have proved very useful, I fear the consequences of creating something that can match or surpass humans," "Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn’t compete and would be superseded."
Artificial Intelligence: Better Than Human?
“The human species, along with the computational technology it created, . . . will be in a position to change the nature of mortality in a postbiological future.”
