content: It's not about the computer, it's about the people controlling it. No matter how advanced AI gets, unless they get to the point where they can build and program themselves independently, a human is always going to have to do those things at some level.  There is always going to be a goal in mind for the AI and that's always going to be subject to the whims and bias of the person who gets to decide what that goal is.  That's what makes me nervous about the advancing state of AI and technology as a whole.  AI is just a tool just like a gun, but when you put powerful tools in the hands of the wrong people, you get powerfully bad results.
