Great keynote about AI, ML, IoT, society and security. Thought provoking and hilariously entertaining.
@ketil I am for the AI research but I feel like he IS addressing these things. For right now, we are doing ok-ish, the problem is introducing AI that will be worse than us in resolving these problems or introducing AI and then don't monitor its result to check for bias.
One thing that I think he is missing: AI is trying to solve problems which we otherwise cannot solve. The old nuts and bolts methods simply don't scale. If we don't get AI, we will continue to have traffic accidents, release dangerous criminals on the public, or treat patients with the wrong medicines. Without AI, people are going to die.
But of course, we do need to be very careful, and prepared for failures.
