The questions that define civilizations don\u2019t always announce themselves cleanly. They can arrive wrapped in the language of progress\u2014faster, smarter, more efficient\u2014until one day we realize that what has arrived isn\u2019t what we wanted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the case of artificial intelligence, choices made in boardrooms and research labs will have far-reaching consequences. We need to understand that clearly, before the changes become irreversible. Even more, to make serious decisions about our future, we need to state the moral definitions of what it means to be human and the limits on AI\u2019s influence on the social order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
AI development is outpacing ethical deliberation, and people are already being harmed. We\u2019ve seen teens counseled toward suicide, a proliferation of child sex-abuse material and communities strained by sprawling data centers. And that\u2019s only what\u2019s come to light. This technology is permeating our lives in ways beyond our awareness. The risks of AI superintelligence run from economic upheaval to the concentration of power in the hands of whatever corporation or government wins the AI technology race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the same time, we have to see clearly the good of AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
