“I’m not suggesting that neural networks are easy. You need to be an expert to make these things work. But that expertise serves you across a broader spectrum of applications. In a sense, all of the effort that previously went into feature design now goes into architecture design and loss function design and optimization scheme design. The manual labor has been raised to a higher level of abstraction.”

“The 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis came well before the current age of AI, yet computers were in use and technology played a critical role in the form of U-2 spy plane photos that showed Soviet missile installations in Cuba. Protocols and standard operating procedures were in place, ... Still, it was human judgment as displayed in Khrushchev's letter to Kennedy and Kennedy's decision to remove U.S. missiles from Turkey and Italy that defused the crisis. ... human judgment, not computers and processes, avoided nuclear war. It's instructive that the one case, albeit fictional, in which nuclear war resulted was [the movie] "Fail Safe," where a computer malfunction had the last word and attempts at human intervention by the president and the commander's wife failed due to strict adherence to protocols. ... Delegation of attack decisions to AI, however sophisticated, greatly increases the risk of nuclear war.”
