Transcript: Much of what we do with the Internet would have never been predicted in advance by asking, “What would happen if you connect a bunch of computers together with a common protocol?” No one, for instance, would have seen the rise of Wikipedia, or social networks, or how you can post questions in forums and perfect strangers would answer them with no hope of anything in return. No one really would have foreseen the open source movement. In fact, most of the things that we do with the Internet are in fact good and positive. I mean, certainly we are all aware of the nefarious uses of the Internet, but primarily we use it to promote connections between people. I think AI is going to be the same way. When we are looking at the technology and what it's capable of doing, we're going to be blind to the kinds of things that will seem obvious in retrospect. Uses, which, I suppose will be mostly for the good, that will change our lives in ways that we can't presently understand. http://bit.ly/2Hc06Bv gigaom May 09, 2019 at 04:35PM
