Anissimov’s Recent FAI Overview
August 12th, 2009
It seems very unlikely that anyone who reads (or more properly will read) this blog doesn’t also read AcceleratingFuture, but for those who don’t, stop by and especially check out Michael Anissimov’s recent introduction to Friendly AI. If superintelligence is possible, this subject is of great and intimate importance to each of our lives.
(My outlook on the future is more similar to his than anyone else’s I’ve come across, and for those interested in some of the blog differences, my plan is for this blog to be primarily about motivation [though Anissimov already covers it more than others I’ve seen]. While I plan to continue increasing my knowledge of relevant subjects, very intelligent treatments of the issues themselves are already present in several places, Michael’s blog being one. If you’ve already been convinced of the plausibility of an existential risk, potential danger, or just a way the world could be better, my hope is to help you go out and do something about it. )
