Musk Cites Superintelligence on AI Dangers
Casado notes the book's role in shaping AI risk views before transformers.
Elon Musk referenced his prior warning that advanced artificial intelligence may exceed nuclear weapons in risk. He invoked Nick Bostrom's book Superintelligence while calling for extreme caution during development. Investor Martin Casado replied that the 2014 volume framed public perceptions of the technology three years before transformers were published. The exchange appears in posts linking back to Musk's earlier statement on the topic.
Worth reading Superintelligence by Bostrom. We need to be super careful with AI. Potentially more dangerous than nukes.
