Nature Commentary on AI

 

Nature has this excellent comment on AI I wanted to make a note of for future reference. A sample:

Intelligence, as we have seen, does not require strong autonomy — a finding that complicates debates about legal and moral responsibility of artificial-intelligence systems, which often assume the two go together. We need more careful, empirically grounded ways to assess and establish responsibility for AI. Furthermore, conventional methods of governance are unlikely to work for AGI, precisely because of its generality. Technology is typically governed on the basis of its possible uses, but AGI can be used almost anywhere.
