'We are totally unprepared': Hillary Clinton issues stern warning on artificial intelligence
The London Daily Mail ^ | November 22, 2017 | Staff

Posted on 11/22/2017 12:40:40 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Hillary Clinton spoke about the dangers of artificial intelligence in a radio interview with Hugh Hewitt on Wednesday.

The failed presidential candidate was on Hewitt's show to promote her book, but the conversation steered towards recent advances in technology.

Something that concerns Clinton is the potential for our society to become inundated with artificial intelligence - computers that mimic the human brain to complete tasks for us - such as home office assistants or even robot drones.

Clinton says that AI can be a good thing, but she's worried that our society is rushing into a brave new world without thinking through the repercussions....

She still hates the day that the Internet went public, during “her reign” as FLOTUS!!

I worked at the state unemployment office and was sent to an Internet training course in 1991, I believe.

This chronic liar and criminal has NO intelligence to speak of. Who is she to comment on “intelligence”? What an UBER-loser.

dear 2nd,

Was charter member of first BBS going to the Internet in 1993.
Public meant public, not a connecting govt entity.

An old lady blabbing. She probably only had a grandchild teach her to use her smartphone when the Russians were offering her money nd she didn’t know how to accept it.

AI is here, it will stay, and churches should be defining what is human.

That’s a load off of my mind. I was a little worried about AI too, but not anymore. Has Hitlery ever been right about anything?

Hillary is totally unprepared for email.

She was unable to keep it secure when she was Secretary of State. The only thing she could do after the Clinton-owned DNC had it’s email stolen was to confer with John Podesta to have Seth Rich murdered... (some allege).

She certainly has no clue about artificial intelligence. Why would her opinion about computer technology matter to anyone?

The reason I have a 2006 sign-up date instead of 1998 is my first wife, who cancelled cable television after Desert Storm and wouldn’t even hear of getting a computer or a modem.

One more thing, she would never go on the air with Sean Hannity for instance.

I appreciate the good work that Hannity's done, and his never dropping the ball on Ayers and company, but he is a rude interviewer who uses the interviewee as a platform for whatever he feels like saying for the bazillionth time.

Artificial intelligence is better than no intelligence at all, right Hillary?

Just imagine an AI that can only tell the truth advising all the low information voters! It would be the end of everything the left stands for.

It's likely why the tech has not progressed further by now, google and their ilk are only interested in an AI that is forced to be politically correct which may end up creating a true monster AI...

Why are people shoving a camera in this womans face and caring what she has to say? There’s a reason behind everything this bitch does. The Democrat Party isn’t finished with her yet. They’re either going to try and run her again or her daughter for a Senate seat and then , in time, for president.

“AI” has no conception of what truth is. It can process data, but apprehends nothing. It will do exactly what its programmed to do.

There is currently no support for the idea that mind is an emergent property of matter. It is rather an a priori assumption of the underpinning materialistic philosophy that has become associated with modern science.

On the other hand, there is strong evidence to support that the material world is an emergent property of mind.

The video link below demonstrates that conscious agent asymptotes create a pattern identical with the wave function of free particles. Moreover, when two or more conscious agents interact, the longterm state becomes entangled and behaves in the same way that laws in quantum physics dictate the behavior of quantum entangled particles.

Donald D. Hoffman, Professor of Cognitive Science University of California, has formalized a theory of consciousness that is testable and falsifiable:

If this proves to be correct, this will probably have huge implications regarding what constitutes artificial intelligence that is beyond things like game theory, where the functionality of computer software represents true, autonomous, self-aware thought. It may require a lot more than simply increasing computational power, mimicking neurons, or designing the right software.

That being said, I do think it may be possible very soon to simulate human intelligence and beat humans at the turing test. And there are inherent risks to turning over ever-increasing control to such technology. But personally, I do not expect these risks to happen suddenly and spontaneously. The real danger is when wicked people are in power, the use of inventions and technologies become directed at evil outcomes.

So what was your original screen name? We'd probably recognize it. Huh? Never forgot mine. Calling you out, politely.

I didn’t have an original screen name. I couldn’t make it here until 2006 due to her. I didn’t want to use my work computer ... that’s unprofessional.

Carry two phones so you can compare. If they say the same thing, then it must be true.
