Abstract
Stuart Russell, Professor at UC Berkeley and co-author of the most popular AI textbook, thinks the way we approach machine learning today is fundamentally flawed. In today’s conversation we cover, among many other things: • What are the arguments against being concerned about AI? • Should we develop AIs to have their own ethical agenda? • What are the most urgent research questions in this area?
