Hinton is absolutely correct in his last sentences in this article -- people have much more to fear from other people than they do from AIs. I find it fascinating how much of an *emotional* issue this -- the idea of machine sentience -- is for many people. For many of them it's a religious thang, in that they actually believe that creating intelligent life is something reserved for God...who doesn't exist. But for many others I think it's almost a racial/ethnic fear. For them, shiny robots have taken the place in their catalog of Things To Fear alongside people they consider niggers and ragheads. I guess it's a trend. Intelligent minds find ways to become more intelligent, and small minds find ways to become even smaller.
