A Brave New "Westworld"2 of 8
It’s not science fiction. It's science fact.
If artificial intelligence was hypothetical in the '70s, it is no longer the case in 2016. With Silicon Valley currently hard at work at developing artificial intelligence, the creators of "Westworld" use the series to explore AI as a reflection of its creator. "There is the possibility of human error. As with any child, you do your best to rear them, but they can sometimes take on their own course. Their code can develop in ways that we did not anticipate," says Joy. “So, our examination of intelligence in "Westworld" accounts for a plurality in different ways in which AI could develop."
