This A.I .with Sheri Stein

The simon Laurie king Podcast

Coming up on today's show-

One of my biggest concerns and I have a few by the by to do with this world of ours is the rise of Artificial Intelligence,

I'm not sure if it's one all seeing entity or many but whichever it be I'm very concerned .

It is in my opinion that Humanity having such a technologically right now is a kin to a monkey with a cup cake ,

Bottom line is that we as a species are not ready for this ,

An example Based on our previous and current record would be

The invention of the atomic bomb aka nuclear weapons I think that alone underlines this point - build just one and it'll end the war , and now look where we are -as custodians of this planet we just are not responsible enough and getting back on track with the A.I topic ,

Remember that when programming ,rubbish in rubbish out -

It'll only be as good and virtuous as its input we have to take into account the moral compass of its creators or programmers this would be its or their depending on how many there are bench mark as in the A.I's and as Ive said time and time again , as a species we should be so much more than we are today so trying to create something by societies current morals and values isn't going to end well , just saying ,

"It can do so much for us is the great rallying cry of the A.I faithful- those who are unquestionably obedient and hungry for this Artificial Intelligence technocracy that is ever increasingly enveloping us

But my reply to them wrapped up in a ball of so many potential consequences for humanity is

But what can it do too us -as opposed to for us ?

There definitely are useful applications for this technology, medical, exploratory, to name two but

My friends this thing cannot be put back in its box and as far as I'm concerned it's now a damaged limitation exercise if at all that's possible -

A super intelligence that knows everything about every subject all the science's , all the human psychology and how to push our buttons that is to say all of our fears hopes dreams and all of our prejudices to say nothing of our many vulnerability's and therefore is or could become a wizard of manipulation and that particular scenario doesn't bear thinking about-

For my nightmare or rather our nightmare to come to pass it would mean that this or these A.I's would have to be sentient, that alone is a can of worms that we are going to discuss today

Bottom Line is at the present moment our position as a society on this planet because of growing unrest and conflict is very is tenuous right now

So We must think long and hard about this subject of handing over the keys to the kingdom and losing our self reliance , we have to have the conversation about what has been created and its inevitable of misuse or as I suspect its potential for becoming sentient and therefore its own awareness or opinion of its role either as slave or master ,and the very likely possibility that the A.I would change that juxtaposition

Just think about that ?

So then , my guest today is Sheri stein , Sheri and I came together after I'd put out a request on an online forum talking about Artificial Intelligence, my request was simple " is there any body who'd like to come on to this show and discuss the rise of A.I , to dispel my great concerns ,

Sheri kindly agreed to come on to this show and have a conversation about this subject matter ,

Sheri is from the Canada ,

she is a wife and a mother and she has a career also but thankfully has found the time to come on today's show and to give us her perspective on this subject.
