This A.I. Forecast Predicts Storms Ahead (Gift Article)
The A.I. prediction world is torn between optimism and gloom. A report released on Thursday decidedly lands on the side of gloom.
Fascinating (and disconcerting) read in #NYT about #AI2027, a report that tries to predict “what could happen if A.I. systems surpass human-level intelligence — which the authors expect to happen in the next two to three years.”
