After his death, his colleague Stanisław Ulam attributed these words to him from a conversation they once held: John von Neumann was perhaps one of the first people to glimpse the huge potential for calculation that a computer could have.
Human affairs, as we know them, could not continue. We are publishing, courtesy of Ariel, an advance excerpt from the new book by José Ignacio Latorre, Ética para máquinas, in which he proposes a reflection on the ethics necessary for the new society that is approaching. Once technology enters into this dynamic of self-learning, its dependence on humans will be overcome, opening up a field of autonomy and efficiency that will inevitably lead towards unprecedented progress of artificial intelligence. According to this theory, accelerated technological progress is bringing us closer to a point of no return, in which computational intelligence will reach such a level of complexity that it will be capable of improving itself. We find ourselves heading towards a crucial singularity in the history of humanity.
