Shailendra K. Hajela · 2016
This paper deals with the challenges posed to human safety in the emerging IoT and ubiquitous network scenario by super intelligent machines/cognitive robotics that would coexist in the upcoming heterogeneous world comprising humans and super intelligent machines. Questions of trust in the super intelligent machines have been raised by scientists, sociologists, industry stalwarts, etc. After deliberating on the issues, aligning AI to human interests has been suggested as a plausible option. Agenda for further action proposed is that the ITU may constitute a multidisciplinary umbrella group, collaborating with existing technical and policy groups working on AI standards at technology and policy levels, for in-depth study of all facets, bridging the technology innovations and the policy considerations, and bring out Guidelines for AI aligning with human interests adhering to ethical code.
