      Only one thing will send gas prices back below $4 a gallon, analyst says

      Despite West Texas intermediate crude oil futures dipping below $100 per barrel on Tuesday, serious gas price relief may be unlikely happen until motorists make adjustments by driving less. "I think the only thing that's going to make a dent in gasoline or jet fuel prices is demand destruction," Vectis Energy Partners principal Tamar Essner said on Yahoo Finance Live after being asked when gas prices may drop below $4 a gallon (video above). Consumers are beginning to see some pressure taken off their wallets when making their stop at the local gas pump, with the average price of regular unleaded gasoline dropping for the third straight week last week, but prices remain exorbitant as drivers haven't pulled back aggressively on travel.

    Will AI one day become sentient?
    • “Left unchecked, if artificial intelligence reaches cognition … it will be fueled by some of the most inhumane impulses of humanity.”

    • “Now is the time to stop and think — before our technology outstrips us once again.”

    • “I don't want to talk about sentient robots, because at all ends of the spectrum there are humans harming other humans.”

    • “Minds can take different forms … We should avoid reducing questions about AIs to ‘Can AIs think and feel like us?’”

    • “To identify sentience, or consciousness, or even intelligence, we’re going to have to work out what they are.”
