The Urgent Need for Action on AI: Experts Warn of Impending Doom.

AI expert Eliezer Yudkowsky believes that the US government should shut down the development of powerful AI systems, claiming that AI could become smarter than humans and turn on them. He disputes the six-month "pause" on AI research suggested by tech innovators, including Elon Musk, and argues that the most likely result of building a superhumanly smart AI is that everyone on Earth will die. Yudkowsky proposes international cooperation to solve the safety of superhuman intelligence, which he claims is more important than preventing a full nuclear exchange.
