It is estimated that the market value of AI could exceed 300 billion dollars by 2025.
Several experts decided to sign an open letter to warn and raise awareness about what could be coming with advances in artificial intelligence (AI), and it is that, according to what they say, contemporary AI systems already show recognized human traits in psychology, so They have pointed out that we must be prepared for when technology has its own consciousness, because it could stop being something of science fiction and become a reality as in the movie starring Will Smith “I, robot”.
The fear of AI
The intelligence artificial It has been a topic of discussion in recent months and recently the progress of this sector has been seen so much that a pause has even been requested since its development could be counterproductive. So much Elon Musk as scientists, including Steve Wozniak and engineers from Google y Microsoftsigned a petition at futureoflife.org to stop research related to artificial intelligence for 6 months since it was classified as “a great risk to humanity”.The letter, promoted by Future of Life Institutean organization created to monitor the way in which the technologyhas received more than 1,100 signatures.
Said researcher has been issuing warnings about the possible catastrophic consequences that AI would cause for years. Even in March, Bloomberg described it as an “AI Doomer,” and the author Ellen Huet He noted that he has been warning of the possibility of an “AI apocalypse” for 20 years. Eliezer Yudkowsky’s article entitled «Pausing AI developments is not enough. We need to shut it all down» was posted by Time and in his post he warned about the consequences of building a superhumanly intelligent AI.
Experts warn about AI: “It presents human features and will have consciousness”
The fears for the IA They continue to grow, this time, several experts decided to come together in order to sign an open letter that precisely warns about their progress and the possibility that it becomes self-aware, even pointing out that contemporary AI systems already show recognized human traits in psychology
The Association for Mathematical Consciousness Science (AMCS) questions whether humanity will manage to “control, align and use” these systems when they reach their maximum “awakening”.
“AI systems, including large language models like ChatGPT and Bard, are artificial neural networks inspired by the neural architecture in the cerebral cortex of animals. In the near future, it is inevitable that such systems will be built to replicate higher-level aspects of brain architecture and functioning. In fact, it is no longer the realm of science fiction to imagine that AI systems have feelings and even consciousness on a human level. Contemporary AI systems already display recognized human traits in Psychology, including evidence for Theory of Mind.” He stood out in the carta from The Association for the Science of Mathematical Awareness.
“Consciousness research is a key component in helping humanity understand AI and its ramifications. It is essential to manage the ethical and social implications of AI and to ensure the safety of AI. We call on the technology sector, the scientific community and society as a whole to take seriously the need to accelerate conscious research to ensure that the development of AI produces positive results for humanity. AI research should not be left to roam alone,” he added.
