If today’s AI systems are on a path to AGI, we will need new approaches to ensure such a machine doesn’t work against human interests.
Unfortunately, we don’t have anything as elegant as Isaac Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics. Researchers at DeepMind have been working on this problem and have released a new technical paper (PDF) that explains how to develop AGI safely, which you can download at your convenience.
It contains a huge amount of detail, clocking
