Experts have warned about the possible dangers of AI (Artificial Intelligence) which are a threat to the existence of civilization. On Tuesday, top AI scientists, researchers and some others issued a new warning about the dangers AI poses to mankind. Hundreds of well-known personalities have signed this statement on threats from AI, and it has been posted on the website of the Center for AI Safety.
The one-line statement said, “Along with societal-level threats such as pandemics and nuclear war, reducing the risk of extinction caused by AI should also be a global priority…” The letter was signed by over 350 officials , have been signed by researchers and engineers, and include top executives from three major AI companies – Sam Altman (CEO of OpenAI), Demis Hassabis (CEO of Google DeepMind) and Dario Amodei (CEO of Anthropic).
This statement has been issued at a time when concerns are increasing about the possible disadvantages of AI.
The Center for AI Safety website has warned of many disasters…
- AI can be used as a weapon: malicious actors can make AI extremely destructive, threatening existence itself, and potentially leading to political instability.
- AI-generated misinformation: Due to the flood of AI-generated misinformation and inflammatory content, our society will not be ready to deal with the important challenges of today.
- AI systems designed with ill intentions can find innovative ways to achieve their objectives, even at the cost of individual and societal values.
- If important work continues to be assigned to machines in this way, then there may be a weakness in society – in such a situation – humans may lose the ability to operate themselves and become completely dependent on machines, just like in the movie WALL- Shown in E.
According to CNN, Dan Hendricks, executive director of the Center for AI Safety, said the situation was “reminiscent of nuclear scientists issuing warnings about their own technologies … As Robert Oppenheimer said, ‘We knew That the world will never be the same…”
Dan Hendricks also stated, “There are many ‘significant and immediate threats’ from AI, not just extinction … for example – systematic bias, misinformation, malicious use of information, cyberattacks and weaponization. .. These are all important threats, which need to be found remedies…”
