Key figures in artificial intelligence want training of powerful AI systems to be suspended amid fears of a threat to humanity.
They have signed an open letter warning of potential risks, and say the race to develop AI systems is out of control.
Twitter chief Elon Musk is among those who want training of AIs above a certain capacity to be halted for at least six months.
Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak and some researchers at DeepMind also signed.
I am curious as how they think an advanced AI is going to protect itself from having the power plug pulled.
Noah Smith seems a skeptic on the matter of AI doomsterism, too.

We don't have AI. We have machine learning. Stopping progress now is panic monkey logic, as paranoid as those who think transgenders will bring down civilization.
