RE: AI Safety - Researchers at Facebook decide to shut AI which created it's own language

Yes, I see your point as well. In that scenario, the machines use a rewards based impetus, which is a cold logic that doesn't include negotiations within a more "humane" context. So the initial AI programming is the problem. The machine is programmed to win in a simple (greedy) way. It lacks abstract reasoning of a higher logical order, like a type of politeness or something. I'm sure this is a far greater programming complexity, and shows also how much more advanced the human brain truly is, compared to any of man's artificial intelligence creations. Blinded by Science :)

Thank you for your excellent comment, greatdabu. And while more sophisticated and "humane" programming may be an answer, we are still left with the huge issue of such programs being written by human beings, who even if they could avoid making mistakes in the programming, would also have to be paragons of virtue, to not fall prey to temptations of power, like in every other aspect of human behavior and enterprise. Playing with deadly fire... I have followed you, btw, please follow me (-:

I'm following you my friend :) Yes hopefully the human programmers will also be "humane"
