I think Musk and Co are trying to solve a problem that does not exist by raising alarm about it
Yes mate, the problem doesn't exist today but it can exist in the future. Technological innovations are exponential, not linear, and AIs could one day improve themselves at a rate much beyond our comprehension. If we don't enhance our capabilities they could end up ruling over us.
because man is still needed to run the machines.
Machines have displaced men, but men control the machines. AIs could outsmart men one day and subvert the control. This is just a possibility, and if Elon Musk is investing his own money in trying to come up with a solution that's fine by me.
But then I admire your works on technology especially.
Thank you mate I appreciate your nice words.
