自助餐不是唯一重要的人公开反对人工智能技术。亿万富翁投资者沃伦BuffetReuters人工总体智能应用的发明如ChatGPT GoogleBard,连同其他几个人,甚至世界上最优秀的人才担心。最新名单上的不是别人,正是巴菲特本人,他比较了当前人工智能发展原子弹。巴菲特是世界上最富有的人之一。他也是最成功的投资者之一,这意味着他的观察有体重的人。在讨论公司的奥马哈举行的年度股东大会上,内布拉斯加、亿万富翁投资者表达了他的最新进展的担忧在人工智能领域,每一个今天在业务报告。“当事情能做各种各样的事情,我有点担心。因为我知道我们不能un-invent它,你知道,我们做发明,非常,非常好的理由,原子弹在第二次世界大战,”92岁的说。“这是非常重要的,我们这样做。但它是好的在接下来的二百年里世界的能力这样做已经释放了吗?”他问道。 Buffet went on to elaborate why he feels the way he does about AI and its applications, and said: "We didn't have a choice, but when you start something, well, Einstein said after the atomic bomb, he said, this has changed everything in the world except how men think." What do the other tech leaders think? Buffet is not the only prominent person who has spoken out against AI technology . Twitter CEO Elon Musk feels the same way and recently joined thousands of people in signing a letter calling for a six-month pause in the development of systems more powerful than OpenAI's recently-launched GPT-4. With over 27,000 signatures, the letter suggests AI companies should halt the development of powerful AI systems until it is confirmed that their effects will be positive. Also, the letter emphasised that people should be confident that the risks presented by these systems will be manageable before they are made available. Geoffrey Hinton, who is known as the "Godfather of AI," recently quit his job at Google and warned people of dangers posed by these extremely intelligent technologies. Hinton even warned that AI tools could be misused by powerful individuals like Russian President Vladimir Putin. He believes that people like Putin will not shy away from using AI to manipulate wars and elections. Likewise, American business magnate Bill Gates believes AI chatbots could oust human teachers soon and could lead to job losses in other sectors as well. Should AI developments be stopped? Despite the fears and apprehensions, industry experts have only called for discussions around controlling the technology and not a blanket ban on its use, as the technology can also be used to make the world a better place. AI can be used in healthcare, education, big data analysis, coordination in government departments, and to improve access to resources. In fact, Gates also believes that artificial intelligence is revolutionary and will help reduce inequalities in the world. In an open letter posted on his blog, he said that in his lifetime, only two demonstrations of technology struck him as revolutionary: one was the graphical user interface—the forerunner of every modern operating system, including Windows—and the other was OpenAI. Gates' letter came against the backdrop of Microsoft launching an AI chatbot known as ChatGPT. The artificial intelligence app can write essays and poems or compute code on command. Its development has taken the world by storm and led people to debate whether AI can replace humans in specific vocations. However, AI goes beyond just improved versions of ChatGPT and Google Bard. The next development in the sector is expected to be AGI (artificial general intelligence). For those unaware, AGI (artificial general intelligence) alludes to a machine that is as intellectually capable as a human. However, AGI would rely on a system or an algorithm to simulate human intelligence which software like ChatGPT have not been able to achieve yet. Read more
