Before long we're gonna have Trump boasting that he will build the biggest, most beautiful Jupiter brain you've ever seen.

Someone in my household just said 'AI is coming' and my dog is like 'Who is coming? This is my territory I will bark at them!'

Increasing human intelligence - illegal. Creating inhuman artificial intelligence - unregulated.
