Chess grandmaster Garry Kasparov sat down with Business Insider for a long discussion about advances in artificial intelligence since he first lost a match to the IBM chess machine Deep Blue in 1997, 20 years ago.
He told us how it felt to lose to Deep Blue, and why the human propensity for making mistakes will make it “impossible for humans to compete” against machines in the future.
We also talked about whether machines could ever be programmed with “intent” or “desire,” to make them capable of doing things independently without human instructions.
And we discussed his newest obsessions: privacy and security, and whether — in an era of data collection — Google is like the KGB.
LISBON — Garry Kasparov knew as early as 1997 — 20 years ago — that humans were doomed, he says.
