Dr. Eve Poole (https://evepoole.com/about/) is my honoured guest to talk about her latest book Robot Souls (https://amzn.to/3Od4nFV). Two of the biggest design problems in Artificial Intelligence are how to build robots that behave in line with human values and how to stop them ever going rogue. One under-explored solution to these alignment and control problems might be to examine how these are already addressed in the design of humans. Robot Souls is a book as much about us humans as it is about robots and AI. We have created artificial intelligence rather than artificial humans, and that is a potential problem we need to address and consider how our creations and ourselves can be more human. #philosophy #ai
