Maybe we really should be scared to death of Artificial Intelligence

“Existential risk is defined as many, many, many, many people harmed or killed”

Newsroom May 25 12:41

Judging from all the alarm these days, maybe artificial intelligence poses a huge danger threat to humanity.

Take former Google CEO Eric Schmidt. On Wednesday, he warned that artificial intelligence could pose existential risks, adding that governments will need to step in to ensure technology is not “misused by evil people.”

AI is supposed to make all of our lives easier. But ChatGPT, which emerged last year and is now being employed in endless ways, has prompted concern that it may be too powerful and eventually learn to think by itself, making it an existential risk.

“Existential risk is defined as many, many, many, many people harmed or killed,” Schmidt said at The Wall Street Journal’s CEO Council Summit in London, CNBC reported.
