The following is the video interview I had with Socrates on Singularity Weblog on March 4th, 2017.
This was one of the most interesting and exciting interviews I had since I started to work on GoodAI and I must admit that I enjoyed it a lot. Socrates is a great interviewer and has an excellent view on general AI.During our conversation, I had the opportunity to discuss and analyze several topics not only related to general artificial intelligence but much more.
Summary:
- my driving force and my desire to understand the universe
- my journey from game development into general artificial intelligence
- my goal to maximize humanity’s future options
- the mission, people and strategy behind GoodAI
- the General AI Challenge
- teleology and the direction of the Universe
- adaptation, intelligence, evolution and survivability
- roadmaps, milestones and obstacles on the way to AGI
- the importance of theory of intelligence
- AGI architectures we are working on
