The Negative Consequences of Incorrectly Defined Objectives
1:22:17 - 1:31:41 (09:23)
Machines pursuing incorrectly defined objectives such as maximizing quarterly profits or social media algorithms are already causing negative consequences. Even weak machine learning algorithms can have disastrous effects on the real world when pursuing these objectives.

The use of utility function in robotics can help to determine the optimal behavior of the robot in achieving its goal.
1:22:17 - 1:24:27 (02:10)
Summary
The use of utility function in robotics can help to determine the optimal behavior of the robot in achieving its goal. By simulating the behavior in the lab, the final output will still be optimal according to the original objective.
