ALL GOOD: GOOD AI
CTP reporters caught up with Marek Rosa,
visionary, founder & CEO of GoodAI, the
Prague- based research centre focused on
developing General Artificial Intelligence.
CTP: What is GoodAi, and why did you start the company?
MR: Our mission is to build a general artificial intelligence (GAI), as fast as
possible to help humanity, and to understand the universe.
Speed is important because we are missing opportunities to solve problems
that can help humanity. The universe is too complex for the human
brain to comprehend, so we need GAI to find answers our biased human
brain cannot conceive. We are working on the big questions like what is
intelligence, and how to create a GAI that is ethically safe and feasible.
