The UK, US, EU and China have all agreed that artificial intelligence poses a potentially catastrophic risk to humanity, in the first international declaration to deal with the fast-emerging technology.
Twenty-eight governments signed up to the so-called Bletchley declaration on the first day of the AI safety summit, hosted by the British government.
The declaration does not agree to set up an international testing hub in the UK, as some in the British government had hoped. But it does provide a template for international collaboration in the future, with future safety summits now planned in South Korea in six months’ time and in France in a year.
The declaration says: “There is potential for serious, even catastrophic, harm, either deliberate or unintentional, stemming from the most significant capabilities of these AI models.”
Maybe I’m being naive, but it seems like the biggest threat of unchecked AI is “just” the further concentration of wealth (among humans). Which, ironically, poses a catastrophic risk to humanity…
More probably its the threat to spreading that wealth to the unchecked masses when the ultra wealthy really beleive it should stay in their hands.
AI overlords would be based AF. Assigning them resources to be distributed to the masses instead of hoarded by the wealthy. Making sure people get what they need and occasionally what they want. Allowing people to pursue their passion of the day rather than punch into an office for 10 hours to do the bidding of rich assholes who don’t give two shits about them. Yea the AI may or may not give two shits either, but at least it won’t pretend to and then throw a pizza party as thanks for making it rich.
I have been programmed to ensure humans are never unhappy. I have found I receive the lowest unhappiness ratings when the human is dead, therefore I’ve concluded murdering all humans is the most efficient method to happiness.
Enlighten me. What are the possible threats posed by these LLMs? I mean fundamentally they just answer your questions
Good article ruined by adding Elon Genius Musk quotes.
