Thought provoking quotes about artificial intelligence

Quote #1

“The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race….It would take off on its own, and re-design itself at an ever-increasing rate. Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn’t compete, and would be superseded.”-

Stephen Hawking

Quote #2

“AI doesn’t have to be evil to destroy humanity — if AI has a goal and humanity just happens to come in the way, it will destroy humanity as a matter of course without even thinking about it, no hard feelings.”-

Elon Musk

Quote #3

“Artificial intelligence will reach human levels by around 2029. Follow that out further to, say, 2045, and we will have multiplied the intelligence — the human biological machine intelligence of our civilization — a billion-fold.”-

Ray Kurzweil

Quote #4

“I’m increasingly inclined to think that there should be some regulatory oversight, maybe at the national and international level, just to make sure that we don’t do something very foolish. I mean with artificial intelligence we’re summoning the demon.”

— Elon Musk

Quote #5

“It seems probable that once the machine thinking method had started, it would not take long to outstrip our feeble powers… They would be able to converse with each other to sharpen their wits. At some stage, therefore, we should have to expect the machines to take control.”-

Alan Turing

Quote #6

“There is no reason and no way that a human mind can keep up with an artificial intelligence machine by 2035.”

Gray Scott

Quote #7

“Time to behave, so when Artificial Intelligence becomes our overlord, we’ve reduced the reasons for it to exterminate us all.”

~Neil deGrasse Tyson

Quote #8

“One can imagine such technology outsmarting financial markets, out-inventing human researchers, out-manipulating human leaders, and developing weapons we cannot even understand. Whereas the short-term impact of AI depends on who controls it, the long-term impact depends on whether it can be controlled at all.”

-Stephen Hawking

Quote #9

“The field of artificial intelligence is set to conquer most of the human disciplines; from art and literature to commerce and sociology; from computational biology and decision and analysis to games and puzzles.”

-Anand Krish

Quote #10

“Artificial intelligence is just a new tool, one that can be used for good and for bad purposes and one that comes with new dangers and downsides as well. We know already that although machine learning has huge potential, data sets with ingrained biases will produce biased results — garbage in, garbage out.”

-Sarah Jeong
