“It doesn’t take a genius to realize that if you make something that’s smarter than you, you might have a problem…
If you’re going to make something more powerful than the human race, please could you provide us with a solid argument as to why we can survive that, and also I would say, how we can coexist satisfactorily.”
— Professor Stuart Russell
