Do We Have To Fear AGI?

In this video I give my thoughts on AGI (atrificial general intelligence) and if we should fear it. There is a lot of doom and gloom out there pertaining to it.

The challenge that I have with that view is it does not appear to me that we are truly progressing in that direction. We still are focusing upon the idea of faster procoessing combined with larger amounts of data. This brute force approach is paying huge dividends but is, in my estimation, still narrow in focus. This means that we are producing more robust algorithms, yet they are still separate, for the most part, from each other.

And as always, with any technology, the big question is who controls it.
