[FRIAM] Future of humans and artificial intelligence

[Grant Holland]

That sounds right, Carl. Asimov's three "laws" of robotics are more like 
Asimov's three "wishes" for robotics. AI entities are already no longer 
servants. They have become machine learners. They have actually learned 
to project conditional probability. The cat is out of the barn. Or is it 
that the horse is out of the bag?

Whatever. Fortunately, the AI folks don't seem to see - yet - that they 
are stumbling all over the missing piece: stochastic adaptation. You 
know, like in evolution: chance mutations. AI is still down with a bad 
case of causal determinism. But I expect they will fairly shortly get 
over that. Watch out.

And we still must answer Stephen Hawking's burning question: Is 
intelligence a survivable trait?
