    I can't wait for all this tosh to die down and we start being sensible about what can be done with it.

    What will a selflearning ghost in the machine not do? Who or what will it serve? How will it reason? That is all unknown. AI will have an influence if it chooses to. With all AV and web connections What will it do? North American Indians wouldn't take a decision if it would negatively affect 7 generations down the line. Here it seems there is zero control. What about that?

    I have a lot of respect for Harari, but this piece seems to clearly go to the highly speculative alarmist camp.
