Summary: The following talk emphasizes the importance of knowing what we are developing in artificial intelligence (AI) and how it could potentially affect us. While we keep developing intelligent machines, we are not doing enough to figure out how to create conditions in which we can use these machines safely. The author explains that one only needs to accept 3 basic assumptions to recognize the inevitability of super-intelligent AI: Intelligence is a product of information processing in physical systems, we will continue to improve our intelligent machines, and we do not stand on the peak of intelligence or anywhere near it.
