From left to right, Shivon Zilis (OpenAI), Ben Goertzel (SingularityNET) Suzanne Gildert (Kindred), Max Tegmark (Life 3.0 author), Scott Phoenix (Vicarious), Rich Sutton (DeepMind), Gary Marcus (NYU), Steve Jurvetson (me), Alexandra Suich (Economist).
We address a number of questions in rapid-fire format: How many years to AGI? Fear level appropriate? Scariest AI? What company is most scary in AI? What is most inspiring? (Vicarious: it’s all about robots) Better or worse to be a human in 20 years? Most interesting job in the future? (me: Nursing will be the highest paid job in healthcare) Which country will win the AI race? Safest Path to AI? (Sutton: be like Canadians, Vicarious: UBI)
And here’s my reply to the final question on the safest path to AI, and why there’ll be no hard takeoff of self-modifying code.
