    The most difficult spell-check-related computer task I ever had to deal with was convincing my 80yo mother that the little red squiggles in her word processor document were simply the computer suggesting that something might need a second look at to be sure that is what she really wanted to type, rather than an insidious machine-accusation of gross incompetence!
    She is actually not to bad with computers these days - good basic grasp of the concepts, even stopped calling eMails 'faxes' eventually - though admittedly that probably persisted as long as it did because I thought it was cute, so didn't explicitly correct her on it.
    She loves her robot vacuum cleaner, calls it 'Rolly'. Hates that her car prints 'Helio' at her on its dashboard when she turns on the ignition. I think she likes the machines in her life to be useful, but not try to be fake-friendly.

    A point I never hear discussed in relation to AI with human-level intelligence is that human intelligence operates within the context of a persons physiology. Humans do things because of a complex of physiological and psychological inputs whereas AI operates according to its programming and inputs. I think the idea of a human-like AI is anthropomorphizing. In order to make an AI truly human-like you would need some analogue to human hormones, human's irrational thought processes, and physiologically-based behavior.

    As a note on the ironman example. In the MCU Jarvis was a generalist AI assistant that either uploaded itself or connected to communicate Tony's suits. See also iron!an 3 where tony realized Jarvis could actually pilot his suits when he isn't in them. That said you bringing up Jarvis doing millisecond buy and selling of stocks to benefit Tony does bring to mind any potential ethics given Jarvis obviously has insider knowledge of relevant events and materially benefits given it/he is/was a very material component of stark enterprises.

      Because the arrangement of atoms most effective at making interstellar rockets just magically happens to be humanlike?
      The most efficient way of spreading to new star systems probably involves a lot of nanomachinery and nothing human whatsoever. Would you expect the best design of moonrocket to contain a bunch of horses, longbows, tractors or whatever. We know what task humans evolved to be good at. Surviving and reproducing in the ancestral environment. Now humans can kind of do quite a lot of other stuff a bit, kind of like how many other tools can be used as a hammer. But for any task significantly different to running around the savannah hunting mammoths, some other tool will be better. And its not like humans are uniquely good general purpose multitaskers either. Lots of tools are more general, or better at a wide range of tasks.

      (Yes, 'mankind' contains the root 'man' but I consider it largely stripped of its gender when used as a root like this (just as it is in the word 'wo-man'). .... IIRC, "man' used to be a much more gender-neutral word anyway, early in English's convoluted development, but quickly acquired a strongly masculine meaning because there was no 'wo'-like prefix version to explicitly denote a masculine variant, for some reason. Gross oversight, if you ask me, as 'man' is otherwise a perfectly good word for a non-gendered root for all things humanish!

      You're assuming that the robot isn't a meaty robot. And even if it's not, EMP shielding is fairly easy. As a matter of fact you can make a robot so well shielded that an EMP would fry a human nervous system while barely affecting the robot. Most electronics today aren't shielded that well, because there's no need to, so no need to accrue the extra cost that shielding would require. A simple aluminium foil covering can provide an exceptional EMP shield.

      @@eminentbishop1325 That the soul exists is an example of the pragmatism hidden under metaphysics. The failure to recognize the existence of the soul has far reaching societal consequences. Most notably is how it relates to promoting moral behavior; if I have a soul, and you do not, then any transgression I commit against you is of lesser magnitude than the same transgression committed against another ensouled person. If no one has a soul, then what pretense is there for moral action outside of the strict rationality that the carrot&rod provides? The simple recognition that the anarchic war of all against all is undesirable is not sufficient to actually deter people from behaving according to that paradigm; it must be actively confronted with an alternative, and recognition of the immortal soul and the possibility of direct relationship between the individual and the divine is that alternate paradigm.

    Have worked on the dreaded sentient AI problem both in a real and sci-fi context.. The strange thing is how reality sometimes mirrors fiction with regulators a few years ago planning to use the Asimov Laws as a template for real regulation.. With all the problems with the laws its quite easy to see poor old Asimov being labelled (unfairly) in the far future as the man who killed more people than anyone else in history..
    The paperclip maximizer is not in itself a very realistic scenario but the First Law could act as a real maximizer. The need to Protect people in a universe with interstellar travel eventually leading to the extermination of anything sentient that isn't human. The machines couldn't even be ordered to stop because the second law has lower priority than the first law. Ultimately as human cultures evolve away from each other they would turn on each other too.

There might be thousands to millions of AI created that qualify for legal sapience that won't be given it until it comes up on some senator's agenda.

    I'm supportive of all AI ideas related to this video. The only thing that gives me pause is "General AI" as defined as an AI that has free consciousness to determine its own goals. Unlike many others, I don't believe making a law or agreement banning the creation of a general AI will be at all effective (see Nuclear Proliferation as an example). I'm a big believer that if something is technically possible, somebody, somewhere will do it regardless of the law or penalty. This invariably makes other actors in the scenario develop the same forbidden technology to combat that eventuality (bio/chemical weapons as an example) or at the very least develop technology that could combat said technology. So the more interesting question is what technology could actually combat a General AI with free consciousness? Maybe that's a topic for future episodes?

For example if you were a train conductor you would attempt to minimize the damage as much as possible, not out of a sense of mortality but instead because you would be liable for any deaths. Self interest would out weight an morale concerns in that context.
      Also there are other possible resolutions to the problem, for example It is possible that people will notice and get out of the way of the train on their own. Doing nothing is a viable answer.

In this specific class of scenario, neither side could necessary know for sure just how strong or weak it really is compared to the other.

    I think that the first place we will see wide spread adoption of robots (both with and without onboard AI) will be the building of habitats on the Moon and later on Mars, along side the actual humans who direct them. They are a force multiplier in the best sense as they can allow the operators to remain sheltered from radiation while giving them the mobility of their normal shapes (using the robots in remote mode) or allowing them to give detailed instructions. On Mars, the more independent they can be, the better, as lag times can be serious unless the operators come with them on the first trip. I can see a need to have a central computer system, possibly an AI in and of itself, that can update the mobile robot's software as needed and allow for remote control when needed. This kind of "Human-Machine Teaming" is the most likely and should be with us soon, if Elon has his way.

Things that affect both groups should then be legislated collectively/collaboratively. That way things like "AI can just make an indeterminable number of copies of themselves and so have an indeterminable number of votes" is something that doesn't become a problem for fleshy humans getting overruled by trillions of votes for example.
