An interesting PDF by Roderick Wallace in which he makes a prediction about the uses of the first biomimetic artificial intelligence systems…to wit that they will be terribly unstable and prone to psychoses.

“The most likely use of the first generations of conscious machines will be to model the various forms of psychopathology, since we have little or no understanding of how consciousness is stabilized in humans or other animals.”
