AI+ethics is important, but has been partly hijacked by the AGI (artificial general intelligence) hype. Let's cut out the AGI nonsense and spend more time on the urgent problems: Job loss/stagnant wages, undermining democracy, discrimination/bias, wealth inequality.

At Anduril Industries tech innovation comes first. WIRED tells the story of what we've built with a group of dedicated, brilliant engineers. Worth the read. wired.com/story/palmer-l…

The founders of Anduril Industries differ in their political views but share a love of country and a belief in the duty of American companies to step up and solve crucial national security problems. Very proud to back this team. wired.com/story/palmer-l…

Looking forward to how this experiment plays out. Instant runoff voting has a lot of potential to reduce the nastiness in politics — when you want to be the second choice, attacking their first choice isn’t a great idea. Obviously requires more than 2 parties to be effective. x.com/politico/statu…

Exciting to see progress on UAS flights in the US. Solving the regulatory problems would open up huge new industries in the US, and would really be a shot in the arm for US drone industry. fastcompany.com/40584304/in-a-…

Specialized AI chips have a lot of promise, but still waiting to actually see them deployed. Have any really shipped? nextplatform.com/2018/06/13/mip…

We're calling it Super SloMo. See how @NVIDIA researchers developed a #deeplearning method that uses #GPUs to turn any video into a slow motion masterpiece. #CVPR2018 nvda.ws/2Mr2ZPt

Let me be clear that I like the result & reasoning in #Carpenter. Basically, you can have a legitimate privacy interest in (some) observations about you by a third party. I just think that the logic goes much further than the majority is willing to acknowledge.

This post summarizes the biggest success and challenge of modern AI: it's succeeded through unprecedented scale empiricism and statistical correlation. That has massive impacts on what explaining and understanding -- and therefore governing -- these systems can mean. x.com/bznotes/status…

Got an exclusive look at a new partnership between the Defense Digital Service Service and the Army that's giving technically skilled soldiers an opportunity to work alongside Silicon Valley talent, building life or death tech. wired.com/story/pentagon…

American companies should not build platforms for mass censorship of people and ideas, nor should they directly collaborate with oppressive regimes on products that result in imprisonment of dissidents. theintercept.com/2018/08/01/goo…

"Putin in September 2017 said that AI leadership was a means to become “the ruler of the world.” China has vowed to achieve AI dominance by 2030. . . . Meanwhile, much of the top AI talent in the United States is working on things such as ad optimization."

Bloke on radio said he asked a German why they were so good at manufacturing. He said "You put your financial people on pedestals. We put our engineers on ours" ... So true.
