The importance of artificial intelligence is no longer a secret to anyone, especially since research suggests that one day it will replace humans.
However, many shortcomings of this system have recently begun to appear: sometimes we hear about a fraudster who used artificial intelligence technologies to steal, and sometimes we talk about cases of plagiarism.
existential risk
In this context, Eric Schmidt, former CEO of Google, explained that broad AI models pose an existential threat to humanity.
He warned that artificial intelligence (AI) could harm or kill many people in the near future.
He also expressed concern about the “existential danger” of rapidly advancing technology and warned that it would be difficult to contain it, explaining that many, many, many people would be injured or killed.
Schmidt told the Wall Street Journal board conference in London that there are close scenarios that talk about artificial intelligence systems that can detect gaps and problems in the Internet and new types of biology.
He also indicated that this is today’s fantasy, but the logic is most likely correct, pointing out that when this happens, the bad guys will be ready to use these systems.
Imitation of the brain
The warning came as the official also highlighted the difficulties the world will face in controlling the spread of artificial intelligence, which he likened to the advent of nuclear technology.
Artificial intelligence systems are reported to typically rely on artificial neural networks (ANNs) that attempt to mimic how the brain works in order to learn.
Artificial neural networks can also be trained to recognize patterns in information, including speech, textual data, or visual images, and have been the basis for much of the advances in artificial intelligence in recent years.
