  Aren’t attention networks and MLPs both subsets of feedforward networks already? What you really mean is “Attention can implement fully-connected MLPs”?

  Do you really think AdeptAI, DeepMind, OpenAI, and Microsoft are the AIs to worry about? I’m more worried about what nation-states are doing behind closed doors. We know about China’s Wu Dao, for instance; what else are they working on? If the NRO had Sentient in 2012, what do they have now?

  The Chinese government has a bigger hacking program than any other nation in the world. And their AI program is not constrained by the rule of law and is built on top of massive troves of intellectual property and sensitive data that they’ve stolen over the years and will be used, unless checked, to advance that same hacking program—to advance that same intellectual property—to advance the repression that occurs not just back home in mainland China but increasingly as a product that they export around the world. - FBI Director Christopher Wray

  Artificial intelligence is the future, not only for Russia, but for all humankind. It comes with colossal opportunities, but also threats that are difficult to predict. Whoever becomes the leader in this sphere will become the ruler of the world. - Vladimir Putin

  “do whatever the majority says” is not democracy.

  True democracy finds the solution that maximizes the utility of all the voters, not maximizing the utility of half while completely ignoring the other half.
