Could Artificial Intelligence ever steer you wrong?
Manage episode 485484809 series 3551296
SMU Professor Robert Hunt sees the benefits of Artificial Intelligence when it comes to scientific and medical advances. The discovery of new drugs and potentially new and clean energy sources will be expedited because of AI. But Hunt, the author of the new book "All Brain And No Soul — Real Humanity in an AI Age," worries about the cost to humanity to accomplish these goals. Hunt feels we should have one eye fixed on the progress AI can bring to the world — but the other focused on the cost it exacts from our collective humanity: "If we treat a computer like a human, we may start treating ourselves like computers."
