John Clark: Sauce
“We will see AI emerging as a major and a powerful tool in both the detection and investigation of malice and in the construction of systems resilient to attack.

Patrick Henry: Developed for specificities
“Ever noticed how DeepMind or Watson challenge and surpass human understanding? Well, these seemingly intelligent engines are not as intelligent as they appear.

Mark Woods: Can a robot sin?
“As artificial intelligence (AI) catches up with human intelligence and machines become more and more autonomous, roboticists are increasingly asking about ethics. If a machine is capable of making a decision, what are the moral principles that guide that decision? Can a robot have a conscience? And if so, how is that conscience to be…

Deepak Agarwal: Not perfect
“The thing to realize about artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms is they’re not perfect. The question is which errors are more costly than others. When you’re constructing an algorithm, you tell them this error is okay, but not that costly. But if you make this error, then it’s a million times more costly than…

Gemma Whelan: World run by automatons
“I’m more frightened than interested by artificial intelligence – in fact, perhaps fright and interest are not far away from one another. Things can become real in your mind, you can be tricked, and you believe things you wouldn’t ordinarily. A world run by automatons doesn’t seem completely unrealistic anymore. It’s a bit chilling.” —Gemma…

Gray Scott: The Terminator

Denis O’Hare: Scary stuff
“When you think of Grimms fairy tales, they are deeply, deeply psychological. Theyre so powerful, so bloody, and really, really disturbing. Think about five-year-olds reading that stuff. Even Little Red Riding Hood is a really freaky story. Grandma is gobbled up by a wolf, and the wolf is going to eat the girl. That’s scary…
