AI industry leaders are concerned about the potential threats that advanced AI systems pose to humanity. On Tuesday, several industry leaders, such as OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis, along with other scientists and dignitaries, signed a statement warning of the dangers of AI.
The brief, one-sentence statement was posted on the nonprofit’s website Artificial Intelligence Security Center. “Mitigating the risk of extinction from AI should be a global priority along with other societal risks such as pandemics and nuclear war,” the statement reads.
Almost every major tech company has released an AI chatbot or other AI tools in recent months, following the launch of OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Dall-E last year. Technology is beginning to seep into everyday life and can change everything from How to search for information on the web to How to create a fitness routine. The rapid release of AI tools has also prompted scientists and industry experts to express concerns about the risks of the technology if development continues unregulated.
This statement is the latest in a series of recent warnings about potential threats to advanced technology. Last week, Microsoft, a leading artificial intelligence company and investor in OpenAI, A 40-page report was issued He says AI regulation is essential to staying ahead of potential bad actors and risks. In March, Tesla and Twitter CEO Elon Musk, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak and A Thousands of other people in the tech industry have signed an open letter Requiring companies to halt production on advanced AI projects for at least six months, or until industry standards and protocols are adhered to.
“Should we risk losing control of our civilization? Such decisions should not be delegated to unelected technical leaders,” said the letter, which was published on March 22. “Strong AI systems should only be developed once we are confident that their effects will be positive. And their risks will be under control.”
Some critics have noted that the attention technology leaders give to future risks of technology fails to address current problems, such as The tendency of artificial intelligence to “hallucinate”.There is also the possibility that some of these tech leaders may request that their competitors’ products be discontinued so that they can have time to build their own AI product.
