Mark Zuckerberg Definitely Doesn't Want To Be Tagged As A Luddite

MENLO PARK , CA - “It is deeply unfortunate that luminaries such as Elon Musk and Stephen Hawking have contributed to feverish hand-wringing about a looming artificial intelligence apocalypse,” said ITIF President Robert D. Atkinson. “Do we think either of them personally are Luddites? No, of course not. They are pioneers of science and technology. But they and others have done a disservice to the public—and have unquestionably given aid and comfort to an increasingly pervasive neo-Luddite impulse in society today—by demonizing AI in the popular imagination.” - 2015 Luddite Awards

In a bid to keep himself out of the 2016 Luddite Awards, Mark Zuckerberg called out Elon Musk's alarmist stance on A.I. - and even went as far to say that it is hysterical. He went on to point out that just because a computer is better at something than a human, that doesn't mean the computer will be able to ever do human-like things such as making connections between ideas. He went on further to say that A.I. will only be dangerous if something goes horribly wrong. Now that is a notion everyone should agree with. Since when do humans ever do anything horribly wrong? Hah! Read more propaganda - here -.
