#1 I checked into some "AI" program performances and they were far better than I expected them to be.

#2 We will soon see mass 'synthetic identities' manufactured by AI for consumer credit fraud.

Name, birthday, SSN, employer, online history, residency, immigration status, marital status, country of origin, etc. All data that can exhaustively be fabricated for any credit form, bank application, online membership.

Hordes of unemployable fraudsters now fabricating identities offshore will be decimated.

I can't wait for the election polling.

#3 Congress is wrestling with trying to regulate the AI industry and use thereof.

Why not use Asimov's 'Three Laws of Robotics'?

I'm sure codifying the 'Three Laws of Robotics' would help resolve a lot of AI problematic issues.

From Asimov's Laws (Wikipedia)

" The First Law: A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

The Second Law: A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.

The Third Law: A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law."

#4 SCFI, the problem with the Three Laws is that "injure" and "harm" are vague. I'm sure that Asimov meant them in the common terms in the 40s when he wrote them. Unfortunately, these days, a person can be "harmed" by mean words.
Human: "Robot, tell that person she is ugly."
Robot: "Sorry, Dave, I can't do that. It would violate the First Law."

#5 Human: "Robot, tell that person she is ugly."

I think the world would be a better place if people were more polite to each others.

One can dream...

#6 "Fugly on the inside"
"She already knows, that's why the piercings, tattoos, ear gauges, nose rings, purple hair..."
