Super-intelligence
One day computers could far surpass human intelligence. If and when they do, will we be able to control them?
One day 鈥� and Swedish philosopher Nick Bostrom believes it may not be far away 鈥� computers could become super-intelligent. At that stage they鈥檒l far surpass human intelligence. They may be able to solve our most intractable problems 鈥� like find a cure for every disease. But will we be able to control these computers 鈥� or will they control us?
