8/5(Sat) The Future of Artificial Intelligence (Host:Sherry)
發表於 : 週三 8月 02, 2017 9:47 am
Dear YOYOs,
On July 23, The Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg answered a user’s question about the future of AI in his Facebook Live broadcast. The user had previously watched an interview with the Tesla CEO Elon Musk, an outspoken opponent of AI, and wanted to know Zuckerberg’s opinions on it. Zuckerberg said that in opposite to Elon Musk, he was optimistic about AI. He also mentioned that people who were naysayers and tried to drum up these doomsday scenarios “is pretty irresponsible”.
Musk quickly responded with a tweet two days later saying Zuckerberg's "understanding of the subject is limited."
For more details, please read the following articles:

There are lots of discussion on this issue over the internet. Have a google search if you want to read more, or just come join us to have a discussion this Saturday!
Questions for discussion
Session I
Q1. Google’s AlphaGo computer program beat the world's top ranked players Lee Sedol(李世乭) in 2016 and Ke Jie(柯潔) in 2017, at Chinese board game GO. What are your thoughts on that?
Q2: The machine learning algorithms can help machine to teach itself to perform more powerfully and more efficiently. Do you think AI and robots will become more intelligent than humans in the future? Will they develop interests of its own and come to dominate humanity?
Q3. Zuckerberg says he is optimistic about artificial intelligence's “potential to make the world better,” and that “it is pretty irresponsible” to try to drum up the doomsday scenarios, but Elon Musk says Zuckerberg's understanding of AI is 'limited'. What’s your stand?
Session II
Q4. Currently, AI is being developed in numerous fields. In what fields do you think the development of artificial technology is beneficial for human beings and in what fields do you think it should be limited?
Q5. Will AI transforms the economy and leads next industrial revolution? Will it allow humans more leisure time in the future or eliminate jobs? Do you think the advances in artificial technology need to be regulated? If so, how?
Q6. Not all science and technology experts are advocates of artificial intelligence. In addition to Elon Musk, Bill Gates and Stephen Hawking have also been vocal about their concerns about AI. Is artificial intelligence something we should fear? In your opinion, is it a potential threat or an opportunity for humanity? Why?
