Between all of the AI hype and the AI panic, my biggest concern is that the laws will be so poorly written that simple algorithms like A* will end up illegal and AI in general will be outlawed. We’ll have a Butlerian Jihad because a bunch of daffy CEOs simply said their machines will replace humans when they can’t. Our children will be forced to drink sapho juice and eat spice so they can work in a server farm made of humans.

This as a life philosophy leads to violent road rage.

At the very least, there’s a teenager in your neighborhood listening to every damn thing you say. If you have cameras in your home, they’re watching you.
