> Gary Marcus: I am much more worried about bad actors deliberately misusing AI

This is so often overlooked in favor of AIs taking over, but misaligned humans seem to be the biggest threat of all, especially if you add potential future unknown technologies into the equation.

I can't envision a future society where our freedom isn't severely limited in one way or another, like limiting our access to materials to build things, or to software that is too intelligent, or limiting our rights to privacy with constant monitoring.... i doubt that defensive measures will ever cover every threat, and once threats get big enough you just can't take the risk of leaving a hole left open.
