Distinguishing definitions of takeoff
AI Alignment Forum, February 13, 2020
Abstract
A taxonomy of different definitions of AI takeoff is proposed. This relates to the concerns about the potential impact of the development of artificial intelligence on human society. The definitions are characterized by different ways that the world can evolve as transformative AI is developed. These include local vs global dynamics, the time span and shape of the takeoff curve, its monopolistic effect, and possible measurement metrics. – AI-generated abstract.
