There are 130 scientists working on developing AI for every 1 scientist working on making it safe. Just saying.
I am 100% in favor of charging forward. It does bring up some interesting challenges - Is an AI Sentient? Does it have rights. A fun movie that considers these questions was/is Bicentennial Man.
We are on the verge of AI becoming Sentient. Search Youtube for Two Minute Papers. I am a beta site for OpenAI, an AI research project Musk is involved in. It is pretty amazing already, and getting better every day. Within a decade it will surpass us, and we can only hope it only ignores us, or takes pity on us.
