Gillian Hadfield (Toronto), Reid Hoffman (LinkedIn), James Manyika (McKinsey), and Erik Brynjolfsson (MIT) discuss the future of AGI and work.
The Beneficial AGI 2019 Conference: https://futureoflife.org/beneficial-agi-2019/
After our Puerto Rico AI conference in 2015 and our Asilomar Beneficial AI conference in 2017, we returned to Puerto Rico at the start of 2019 to talk about Beneficial AGI. We couldn’t be more excited to see all of the groups, organizations, conferences and workshops that have cropped up in the last few years to ensure that AI today and in the near future will be safe and beneficial. And so we now wanted to look further ahead to artificial general intelligence (AGI), the classic goal of AI research, which promises tremendous transformation in society. Beyond mitigating risks, we want to explore how we can design AGI to help us create the best future for humanity.
We again brought together an amazing group of AI researchers from academia and industry, as well as thought leaders in economics, law, policy, ethics, and philosophy for five days dedicated to beneficial AI. We hosted a two-day technical workshop to look more deeply at how we can create beneficial AGI, and we followed that with a 2.5-day conference, in which people from a broader AI background considered the opportunities and challenges related to the future of AGI and steps we can take today to move toward an even better future.

If you have benficial AGI and it is replicable, then there is no more need for any sort of group collective. That paradigm dies the day AGI arrives.
If all basic needs are secure, well do what we like, well back to enjoy this planet. However there will be a lot of lazy stupid people that will stay in home doing nothing, watching tv. I think we need to start reducing population to a efficient number, educating people about meaning conception, educating people about enjoy life. Create amazing things by joy, without worring about food, clothing, home, transportation.
Enjoyed the discussion, shame that the sound on this stutters horribly making it hard to get all the points.
