Tech firms, unless regulated, could eventually create “out-of-control” systems that could end up “eliminating the whole human race”, researchers say
Advanced artificial intelligence could pose a threat to"kill everyone" and there would be nothing humans could do to prevent it if it’s not regulated like nuclear weapons, experts warn.
The experts made the comments during a House of Commons Science and Technology Committee meeting, in which they highlighted both the negative and positive aspects of Artificial Intelligence . “So if we’re able to capture that in technology, then of course it’s going to pose just as much risk to us as we have posed to other species.”
Even though doctoral student Michale Cohen stated that artificial intelligence is not at the level of doing things that humans can do right now, he warned that humanity should only carefully and slowly progress its AI technologies.He said: “I think we’re in a massive AI arms race, geopolitically with the US versus China and among tech firms there seems to be this willingness to throw safety and caution out the window and race as fast as possible to the most advanced AI.
In the paper titled “Advanced artificial agents intervene in the provision of reward” which was published in 2022 in the journal Al Magazine Oxford researchers Michael Cohen and Michael Osborne concluded that the answer to the long-standing question of whether AI may go rogue and wipe out humans was that it was “likely”.
