Every civilization throughout our history has taken part in the shaping of its society and ultimately its own destiny, built on the foundations of human ingenuity and the unique drive to be better. In the strive for social progress and the instinctual desire to harness the power of technology, we built machines to help us. This new mechanized era coupled with ever increasing automation, would lay the groundwork for what would later play a critical role in the future molding of human development.
Now, for the first time in human history, we have taken the first real steps to begin handing the reins of human development over to Artificial Intelligence. This new technological frontier will no doubt have its unique (and at times, dizzying) peaks of civil progress as well as its frightening valleys of unintended technological horrors.
Will AI prove to be humanity's greatest creation or greatest flaw? Will humanity collectively ease back on the throttle of technological progress before its too late? Are Markus and Drew making a big deal about nothin'?
You decide.
