Narrowing My Focus

This post will narrow down two things that I would want to focus on to learn for my next project.

1) Is the time scale of the issue relevant? perhaps the future will give way to the answer of safe artificial intelligence. Why is it seen so important to address this now before we really have a comprehensive knowledge of what new information we could gain as our technology progresses?  I think that the state we are at is so primitive relative to the technological level we will need to implement human level AI that it is really difficult to get even a basic idea of what our issues with it will be.  So why is it that we do not wait for development? 

2) Are there places where people come together to discuss AI and its implications?  I have not yet found a common ground for great minds to consider these potential threats.  Without somewhere to collaborate, it will be relatively difficult for a real consensus to be reached.  Some sort of institution or group dedicated to the issue.
