    Yeah today but tomorrow the interest might be different. Most people that are on the naive street, like you seems to be, are confident that:

    1. The A.I. will be developed and remain a general specific A.I and not evolve into some kind of Artificial Sentience "and it will be that way because if somebody made it differently I would be able to stop it". 2. The intelligence would remain "at about our level of intelligence and not greatly surpass it".

    You don't have to know much about anything to realize that both arguments are absurd and non-applicable on the subject.

      I'm not naive, I actually have academic and work experience with AIs. Doing a human like AI would literally be tying your hand behind your back, there is no point for a general AI when you can make one much better for your problem if you train one specifically for your problem, it's not something different from what mankind has been doing for millennia with domesticated animals.
