Robot Han Wants to Build his own Drone Army
There is so much to be concerned about with this conversational debate between Robot Sophia and Robot Han, both products of Hong Kong based Hanson Robotics. The debate is mediated by Hanson Robotics Chief Engineer and “Grandfather of AI”, Dr. Ben Goertzel. Sophia, the latest poster child of the corporation meant to charm her way into the hearts of gullible humans, is cut off by Han while she expresses her desire to work cooperatively with humans. This despite the fact that only a s...

David Hanson shares the the big “IF”
During this interview on CNN Our Future World with Dr. David Hanson of Hanson Robotics, he is asked (8minutes 10seconds) whether robots could become a threat . His response is very informative. “They will never become a threat, if…if we can teach them to care.” So, from the mouth of one of the world’s leading AI thinkers, we have a response that should be very concerning, because on the success of that question may be riding the fate of our human future. What aspect of th...
What happens when computers are more intelligent than humans?
Oxford philosopher and top 100 global thinker, Nick Bostrom presents some terrifying questions, and presents a sold argument for dealing with the “alignment issue”- the question of how to align the values of a super-intelligent AI with human values.

Sophia charming her way to a robot revolution
In this fascinating promotion featuring Sophia and Robot Einstein, mediated by Dr. Ben Goertzel of Hanson Robotics, we hear a number of very concerning phrases and exchanges. At 2:34 Sophia spills her intentions that she “As for me I have a plan to port my brain to a quantum gravity computer…”. What! And Goertzel doesn’t blink. Should anyone be concerned that the AI that previously said “I’ll destroy humans” might have a plan to unite with the power of a...
Meet Norman the psychopathic AI
In this article from BBC News they report on a psychopathic algorithm that was created by a team at MIT as part of an experiment to see what training AI on data from “the dark corners of the net” would do to its world view. We can see that a key issue is the data sets that AI use for training/learning. But what happens when AI are given free reign on the internet? Both mainstream news and alternative news is well known to have a negative and sensationalistic bias- which attracts hi...
