The Great A.I. Awakening

"If an intelligent machine were able to discern some intricate if murky regularity in data about what we have done in the past, it might be able to extrapolate about our subsequent desires, even if we don’t entirely know them ourselves."

--"The Great A.I. Awakening" by Gideon Lewis-Kraus, the New York Times
