Richard Gregory on AI and tech improving society's tolerance; 1970

Professor Richard Gregory, speaking in 1970, on his hopes for the evolution of technology and artificial intelligence improving society and making people more tolerant.""I suspect that by thinking more about our attitude to intelligent machines which are, after all, on the horizon, we will change our view about each other and we'll think of mistakes as inevitable. We will think of thoughts in human beings, I mean of in a circuit nature, as again, inevitable and I suspect that, hopefully, through thinking about the very nature of intelligence and the possibilities of mechanising it, curiously enough through technology, we may become humanitarian, more tolerant of each other and accept pain as a mystery but not use it to modify other people's behaviour."(LSF5358J - AEVZ001J)
