The Partnership On AI Is What We Need

Last month, giants in the field of deep learning, Amazon, Facebook, Google, IBM and Microsoft, announced the launch of a non-profit organization to focus on the ethics and best practices of Artificial Intelligence. The companies involved with the Partnership on AI are known for the huge strides made in the development of Artificial Intelligence in competition with one another. The partnership has stated its objectives "to address opportunities and challenges with AI technologies to benefit people and society." Which comes amidst growing concerns about the future risks of artificial intelligence. Concerns and predictions ranging from job loss to Skynet-like scenarios have saturated the internet.
