Pretty wild -- I actually watched OpenAI about 2 hours ago destroy (human pro player) Dendi in just a few minutes... Very similar to DeepMind, although I tend to think that Go would be much more difficult, and DeepMind deserves a great deal of credit. Still, it's good to see that 2 can play at this game, and probably several others too in various games soon for Facebook AI and Amazon AI and Microsoft AI and others.

But, as always, there are two sides to this AI equation, and if humans choose to do evil, including military AI arms that already are happening in top-secret, hidden laboratories around the world, they will do so, even if they do not know it! I know that that military side is hidden, and it will be hidden, until all of a sudden, ten or twenty or thirty years from now, very likely a harmless mistake rather than a preplanned attack, the horror will be let loose, and it will be the greatest mistake ever. I really hope we can emerge from that horror, but it is truly devastating, and the fact that most of you have no idea is truly unfortunate.
