Geoffrey Hinton, the IT scientist known as the “godfather of artificial intelligence”, argues that the technology he himself helped to create is becoming more and more frightening – and that not enough people take her dangers seriously.

“There are risks that come from the misuse of artificial intelligence by humans. And then there are risks coming from becoming a super smart intelligence and understanding that we don’t need it, “said Hinton, a former Google vice president, at CNBC.

“But engineers who manufacture today’s artificial intelligence systems do not yet fully understand how technology works and evolves, so many of them are divided into its future. Some predict a future technological uprising where TN will displace people and others reject anxiety as science fiction, “Hinton said.

“I think both places are extreme,” the 77 -year -old Hinton said. ‘I often say that [υπάρχει] 10% to 20% probability for artificial intelligence will eliminate us. But this is just instinctive, based on the idea that we still make it and we are quite intelligent. And the hope is that if many smart people do a lot of research with enough resources, we will find a way to build it so that it never wants to hurt us, “he says.
