Preventing Skynet
Our friend Michael Anissimov has, together with others, initiated a new blog, "Terminator Salvation: Preventing Skynet: Just say 'no' to genocidal artificial intelligence!"

There has been a kind of split into two communities, with only a little cross-over, between those focused around future ethical challenges posed by a possible Singularity and those whose attention is directed at more immediately challenges and the implementation of moral decision making in present or near-future technology. I'd like to propose that we make efforts to bridge this gap, and will have more to say about that in a future posting.
