Miracles we'll miss out on if we screw up artificial intelligence

The clues to a cure for what ails us, cancer say, could already be in the totality of medical data we have amassed worldwide or in some combination of the medical research published by the dozens daily. No human or even group of humans could ever find the patterns. We look for breakthroughs and build on those, but advanced intelligent machines can comprehend it all. Also, A.I. system are increasingly on the front lines of research, diagnosis and genetic investigations in collaboration with doctors. If we close too many doors to A.I. development, we may never find the solutions to problems too complex for human minds to fully comprehend.
