Friendly AI: A Dangerous Delusion?

Friendly AI: A Dangerous Delusion?: "I’m known for predicting that later this century, there will be a terrible war over the issue of species dominance. More specifically, it will be fought over whether humans should build artilects (artificial intellects), which could become so vastly superior to human beings in intellectual capacity that they may end up treating us as grossly inferior pests, wiping us out. I anticipate billions of casualties resulting from the conflict over the artilect question."
