Linus Torvalds and the AI Apocalypse
posted July 8, 2015 #
Nice quick read here regarding Linux creator Linus Torvald's thoughts on the forthcoming inevitable Artificial Intelligence Apocalypse.
So I’d expect just more of (and much fancier) rather targeted AI, rather than anything human-like at all. Language recognition, pattern recognition, things like that. I just don’t see the situation where you suddenly have some existential crisis because your dishwasher is starting to discuss Sartre with you.In summation, he's not in the same camp as Ray Kurzweil or Stephen Hawking that we're facing an imminent technology threat. Guess only time will tell?
