I've created a new website for my ebook Facing the Intelligence Explosion:
Sometime this century, machines will surpass human levels of intelligence and ability, and the human era will be over. This will be the most important event in Earth’s history, and navigating it wisely may be the most important thing we can ever do.
Luminaries from Alan Turing and Jack Good to Bill Joy and Stephen Hawking have warned us about this. Why do I think they’re right, and what can we do about it?
Facing the Intelligence Explosion is my attempt to answer those questions.
This page is the dedicated discussion page for Facing the Intelligence Explosion.
If you'd like to comment on a particular chapter, please give the chapter name at top of your comment so that others can more easily understand your comment. For example:
Re: From Skepticism to Technical Rationality
Here, Luke neglects to mention that...
Does anyone else see the (now obvious) clown face in the image on the Not Built To Think About AI page? It's this image here.
Was that simply not noticed by lukeprog in selecting imagery (from stock photography or wherever) or is it some weird subtle joke that somehow hasn't been mentioned yet in this thread?
