Personally I hate AI with a passion. The idea of unalive, unknowable programs making decisions for us is the antithesis of humanity's goals. However the possibility exists that machine learning is how we develop technology quick enough to find and reach a new home in the cosmos. The potentials seem exponentially high for sucess or failure, future Utopias or one lonely and sad Prison Planet. It really comes down to who is contolling and developing the AI systems, and given the state of our world currently I am not hopeful. Nearly every tech advance in the last 100 years has been ultimately used to control us further
