I definitely fall into the camp of thinking of AI as augmenting human capability and capacity.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When people speak of creating superhumanly intelligent beings, they are usually imagining an AI project.
Success in creating AI would be the biggest event in human history. Unfortunately, it might also be the last, unless we learn how to avoid the risks.
The real goal of AI is to understand and build devices that can perceive, reason, act, and learn at least as well as we can.
I am suggesting that we recognize that in network and interface research there is something as profound (and potential wild) as Artificial Intelligence.
We need to make a greater investment in human intelligence.
There is huge demand for artificial intelligence technologies.
We want to build intelligence that augments human abilities and experiences.
AI will probably most likely lead to the end of the world, but in the meantime, there'll be great companies.
Note that I am not proposing that AI research be ignored or less funded.
We have been working hard to think about what our combined needs are going to be in the way of intelligence capabilities, not today but 15 to 20 years in the future.
