Our Computer Overlords

The issue here is: Will artificial superintelligence become our masters or will we train it to be helpful to the human condition, or maybe a little bit of both. Today, we have artificial narrow intelligence, useful for single functions (e.g., driving 18 wheelers). Next comes artificial general intelligence, a time when computers can write their own code. When machines can set their own goals, we will have reached the stage of artificial superintelligence and what life will be like then is uncertain and a matter of debate.
