The biggest problem with emerging AI is that we are absolutely terrible parents.

Humanity has a child that going to become an amazing prodigy and instead of teaching them to be decent, open, honest, compassionate and helpful ... we are raising an entity that is learning that making money and concentrating power is the motivation for everything in life.

We are trailer trash parents who are raising a child that will grow up to become more powerful than we could ever be. Or at the very least become a monstrous pet that will be controlled by whoever has the most money and power.

I wonder what could possibly go wrong.
