“Humans will be as defenseless as children against AI”
Nobel Prize-winning scientist Geoffrey Hinton stated that compared to powerful artificial intelligence systems, humans will be as vulnerable as a three-year-old child.
In his speech on BBC Radio 4’s Today program, Hinton reminded that he evaluated the probability of technology ending in disaster for humanity as 10 percent, and said that he has now revised this rate to 10-20 percent.
THREATS AND OPPORTUNITIES
While Hinton emphasized that artificial intelligence systems will bring new threats to humanity, he stated that these systems are developing strongly and rapidly. Hinton stated that artificial intelligence systems will make people vulnerable to security and privacy issues. In particular, he highlighted the ability of artificial intelligence systems to capture and manipulate personal data.
Computer scientist Geoffrey Hinton, considered the “father” of artificial intelligence, recalled that he assessed the probability of the technology ending in disaster for humanity at 10 percent. However, he stated that he has now revised this rate to 10-20 percent. Hinton predicts that this rate will increase even more as artificial intelligence systems become more developed.
A NEW ERA FOR HUMANITY
Hinton’s warning emphasizes the need to use artificial intelligence technology carefully in terms of security and ethics. The scientist stated that security measures should be taken during the development and use of artificial intelligence systems.
