FYAI: AI - Threat or Menace???? [View all]

Last edited Mon Jul 6, 2026, 11:07 PM - Edit history (1)

For Your Artificial Information. Attended an interesting lecture today: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love AI

William Regli is a national leader in artificial intelligence, science policy and defense innovation. He is currently a professor of computer science at the University of Maryland, where his research focuses on AI validation, intelligent systems, and digital manufacturing. He recently [under Biden] served in the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy as Senior Advisor for AI Risk, where he supported the National AI Initiatives Office in advancing responsible AI development and deployment across the federal government.

This UTube is substantially the same lecture I attended; there are a few other UTubes out there also. There is a Elon Musk antidote at about 55 - 54 minutes in. (Slightly amusing. His retelling during the lecture I attended was a bit more slightly amusing)
