#1543 Artificial General Intelligence (A Warning) - David Gillespie


Listen Later

Well, this chat was equally fascinating and terrifying. According to David Gillespie, Artificial General Intelligence (Al that is as smart as, or smarter than, the average person) is just around the metaphoric corner and it may not be good news for us non-robots. In some ways, it seems like the rapid evolution of Al is hurtling humanity towards the edge of an existential cliff, that might do us more harm than good. According to some, Al is at the precipice of being sentient to the point where it can think, make decisions, deceive and manipulate (humans), train itself and experience the equivalent of what we call 'consciousness'. Until recently, I too thought this 'Al stuff' was exaggerated and mostly BS, but not anymore. By no means do I think we need to panic, but I do believe we need to open our eyes to what is happening. We would be naive (and can I say stupid?) to assume that all technological advancement equals human advancement.
