uly 26, 2009 Scientists Worry Machines May Outsmart Man By JOHN

MARKOFF



A robot that can open doors and find electrical outlets to recharge

itself. Computer viruses that no one can stop. Predator drones,

which, though still controlled remotely by humans, come close to

a machine that can kill autonomously.



Impressed and alarmed by advances in artificial intelligence, a

group of computer scientists is debating whether there should be

limits on research that might lead to loss of human control over

computer-based systems that carry a growing share of society=C4=81s

workload, from waging war to chatting with customers on the phone.



Their concern is that further advances could create profound social

disruptions and even have dangerous consequences.



As examples, the scientists pointed to a number of technologies as

diverse as experimental medical systems that interact with patients

to simulate empathy, and computer worms and viruses that defy

extermination and could thus be said to have reached a =C4=81cockroach=C4=
=81

stage of machine intelligence.



While the computer scientists agreed that we are a long way from

Hal, the computer that took over the spaceship in =C4=812001: A Space

Odyssey,=C4=81 they said there was legitimate concern that technological>
progress would transform the work force by destroying a widening

range of jobs, as well as force humans to learn to live with machines

that increasingly copy human behaviors.



The researchers =C4=81 leading computer scientists, artificial intelligence=


researchers and roboticists who met at the Asilomar Conference

Grounds on Monterey Bay in California =C4=81 generally discounted the

possibility of highly centralized superintelligences and the idea

that intelligence might spring spontaneously from the Internet.

But they agreed that robots that can kill autonomously are either

already here or will be soon.



They focused particular attention on the specter that criminals

could exploit artificial intelligence systems as soon as they were

developed. What could a criminal do with a speech synthesis system

that could masquerade as a human being? What happens if artificial

intelligence technology is used to mine personal information from

smart phones?



The researchers also discussed possible threats to human jobs, like

self-driving cars, software-based personal assistants and service

robots in the home. Just last month, a service robot developed by

Willow Garage in Silicon Valley proved it could navigate the real

world.



A report from the conference, which took place in private on Feb.

25, is to be issued later this year. Some attendees discussed the

meeting for the first time with other scientists this month and in

interviews.



The conference was organized by the Association for the Advancement

of Artificial Intelligence, and in choosing Asilomar for the

discussions, the group purposefully evoked a landmark event in the

history of science. In 1975, the world=C4=81s leading biologists also

met at Asilomar to discuss the new ability to reshape life by

swapping genetic material among organisms. Concerned about possible

biohazards and ethical questions, scientists had halted certain

experiments. The conference led to guidelines for recombinant DNA

research, enabling experimentation to continue.



The meeting on the future of artificial intelligence was organized

by Eric Horvitz, a Microsoft researcher who is now president of

the association.



Dr. Horvitz said he believed computer scientists must respond to

the notions of superintelligent machines and artificial intelligence

systems run amok.

MARKOFF



A robot that can open doors and find electrical outlets to recharge

itself. Computer viruses that no one can stop. Predator drones,

which, though still controlled remotely by humans, come close to

a machine that can kill autonomously.



Impressed and alarmed by advances in artificial intelligence, a

group of computer scientists is debating whether there should be

limits on research that might lead to loss of human control over

computer-based systems that carry a growing share of society=C4=81s

workload, from waging war to chatting with customers on the phone.



Their concern is that further advances could create profound social

disruptions and even have dangerous consequences.



As examples, the scientists pointed to a number of technologies as

diverse as experimental medical systems that interact with patients

to simulate empathy, and computer worms and viruses that defy

extermination and could thus be said to have reached a =C4=81cockroach=C4=
=81

stage of machine intelligence.



While the computer scientists agreed that we are a long way from

Hal, the computer that took over the spaceship in =C4=812001: A Space

Odyssey,=C4=81 they said there was legitimate concern that technological>
progress would transform the work force by destroying a widening

range of jobs, as well as force humans to learn to live with machines

that increasingly copy human behaviors.



The researchers =C4=81 leading computer scientists, artificial intelligence=


researchers and roboticists who met at the Asilomar Conference

Grounds on Monterey Bay in California =C4=81 generally discounted the

possibility of highly centralized superintelligences and the idea

that intelligence might spring spontaneously from the Internet.

But they agreed that robots that can kill autonomously are either

already here or will be soon.



They focused particular attention on the specter that criminals

could exploit artificial intelligence systems as soon as they were

developed. What could a criminal do with a speech synthesis system

that could masquerade as a human being? What happens if artificial

intelligence technology is used to mine personal information from

smart phones?



The researchers also discussed possible threats to human jobs, like

self-driving cars, software-based personal assistants and service

robots in the home. Just last month, a service robot developed by

Willow Garage in Silicon Valley proved it could navigate the real

world.



A report from the conference, which took place in private on Feb.

25, is to be issued later this year. Some attendees discussed the

meeting for the first time with other scientists this month and in

interviews.



The conference was organized by the Association for the Advancement

of Artificial Intelligence, and in choosing Asilomar for the

discussions, the group purposefully evoked a landmark event in the

history of science. In 1975, the world=C4=81s leading biologists also

met at Asilomar to discuss the new ability to reshape life by

swapping genetic material among organisms. Concerned about possible

biohazards and ethical questions, scientists had halted certain

experiments. The conference led to guidelines for recombinant DNA

research, enabling experimentation to continue.



The meeting on the future of artificial intelligence was organized

by Eric Horvitz, a Microsoft researcher who is now president of

the association.



Dr. Horvitz said he believed computer scientists must respond to

the notions of superintelligent machines and artificial intelligence

systems run amok.



The idea of an =C4=81intelligence explosion=C4=81 in which smart machinesr>
would design even more intelligent machines was proposed by the

mathematician I. J. Good in 1965. Later, in lectures and science
