Should We Stop Developing AI For The Good Of Humanity?

Almost 30,000 people have signed a petition calling for an “immediate pause” to the development of more powerful artificial intelligence (AI) systems. The interesting thing is that these aren’t Luddites with an inherent dislike of technology. Names on the petition include Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, Tesla, Twitter, and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, and Turing Prize winner Yoshua Bengio.

Others speaking out about the dangers include Geoffrey Hinton, widely credited as “the godfather of AI.” In a recent interview with the BBC to mark his retirement from Google at the age of 75, he warned that “we need to worry” about the speed at which AI is becoming smarter.

Many high-profile tech figures, including Steve Wozniak and Elon Musk, are calling for a pause in the development of AI over concerns about its potential to cause harm, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Is the speed of advancement outpacing the ability to put in place adequate safeguards?

Possible End of Humanity from AI? Geoffrey Hinton at MIT Technology Review’s EmTech Digital

One of the most incredible talks I have seen in a long time. Geoffrey Hinton essentially tells the audience that the end of humanity is close. AI has become that significant. This is the godfather of AI stating this and sounding an alarm.

His conclusion: “Humanity is just a passing phase for evolutionary intelligence.”

Recap here:

How much of the Universe can humanity reach?

Beyond our own Milky Way galaxy, there are physical limits on our access to the Universe. In this new video from PBS Space Time, we explore the absolute limit of our future view of the Universe, and of the Universe’s ability to influence us.

We humans have always been explorers. The great civilisations that have arisen across the world are owed to our restless ancestors. These days, there’s not much of Earth left to explore. But if we look up, there’s a whole Universe out there waiting for us. Future generations may one day explore the cosmos and could even settle entire other galaxies.

However, there is a fundamental limit to how much of the Universe we can expand into. So, just how big could humanity get? Matt O’Dowd, astrophysicist and host of PBS Space Time, looks at the obstacles that our descendants could face in the very distant future.
