RE: Fear of AI - Musk & Hawkins versus Kurzweil
I agree. No one can predict the depth of the changes that will come about from this wave of technology. I predict, as in past waves, the reality will fall somewhere between the two extremes. That said, I believe that A.I., advanced robotics, and V.R. are going to have a larger impact on humanity than the Industrial Revolution. It's going to be a wild ride, much of which we'll need to figure out in reverse. Great post!
I fully agree. When counting 'technology revolutions' we are at number 4 (after industrial, electronics and internet), and this one will be the most impacting to us humans as well as to the systems we have build up. The tremendous impact that i'll have has also to do with how fast this will develop! not in 10s of years, but can be much much quicker than that do to the ever increasing (exponential curve) of computation power and the availability of instant communication of machines and humans using the internet.
