AI: Can we get all the pros with none of the cons?
summary
Argues that intelligence is computation in nature and that machines have no intrinsic goals but follow human-defined objectives, proposes curating ethics by collecting historical ethical codes (noting learned ethics from movies is risky), questions the two-thirds of jobs replaced claim with historical employment data, predicts eventual human immortality and imagines a box of a trillion souls, and stresses that neural processes are observable yet irreducible computation prevents shortcutting consciousness.
