Future of Life, a non-profit organization, published a letter in which SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, philanthropist Andrew Yang, and about a thousand other artificial intelligence researchers called for an "immediate suspension" of the training of AI systems "more powerful than GPT-4"
The letter, issued by the non-profit Future of Life Institute called for a pause on advanced AI development until shared safety protocols for such designs were developed, implemented and audited by independent experts
The letter also detailed potential risks to society and civilization by human-competitive AI systems in the form of economic and political disruptions, and called on developers to work with policymakers on governance and regulatory authorities
AI can only do what you program/train it to do. Unless that ai is talking about parasites in your example there is no real benefit, just an illusion of one.
Look at how many people are easily misled by politicians and doctors. Don’t think you want to add ai to that list.
This isn’t something I would leave up to chance. The sad part is how much it imitates covid. How many good doctors spoke up about the vaccine? How did that work out for them.
Only way it works is with full transparency, and I don’t think I have to explain why that’s a bad idea in of itself.
We should be working to increase real intelligence before we even worry about the artificial kind.
