Thinking and sharing
Is AI the greatest human achievement or the biggest threat to our existence
Thinking and sharing
2. What did Stephen Hawking mean when he said that AI will be
“either the best, or the worst thing, ever to happen to humanity”
AI is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, AI is our greatest human achievement and we embrace it. On the other hand, it is the biggest threat or danger to our human existence. Regulate and govern it in a scientific way and it will serve and benefit our human beings better.

Useful expressions
雖然超智能AI可能是人類有史以來最大的飛躍，但如果出錯(cuò)或者落入壞人之手，也可能是最危險(xiǎn)的。
消失
別無選擇只能接受并加以規(guī)范
不過，我想大家都認(rèn)可的一點(diǎn)就是，“這是我的AI做的!”這句話不會成為非法行為或不道德行為的任何借口。
While super-intelligent AI could be the biggest leap forward in human history, if it goes wrong or falls into the wrong hands, it could also be the most dangerous.
go away
have no choice but to embrace it and regulate it
One thing I think we all agree on, though, is that saying “My AI did it!” won’t be any excuse for illegal or immoral behavior!
