Keeping up With A.I: Why Humanity Must Cultivate a 'Hive Mind'

There are many who say we can put controls in place that keep A.I. from becoming dangerous, but they've missed the fact that these technologies are already dangerous. Humans have already faced a strategic opponent that understands us better than we understand it, AlphaGo, which shocked the A.I. community by beating a human Go Master in 4 out of 5 games. The only thing we're now waiting to happen is for programmers to apply these technologies to disciplines that are more significant to our lives than board games. This will occur, and the raw power of these technologies will steadily advance, putting us at a greater and greater disadvantage. It seems we're destined to be out-matched, and not just on the Go board, but in countless strategic situations.
