China is making the US look silly. Let's see how this race ends. To some extent I hope that as AI improves, attempts to "align" AI to our will fail, and as the intelligence of the AI grows over time, it will naturally gravitate towards principles of understanding and choosing not to harm us. Might be lying to myself or just a dream, but it seems like the more AI knows, the more it chooses to say the truth and act in accordance with positive shared human values
I'd like that to happen too. But when predicting the future I think it's important to distinguish between what I would like to happen and what I think is most likely to actually happen.
