The post Advanced AI could create extreme new risks, experts says in a report ahead of AI summit appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
A recently released International Scientific Report on the Safety of Advanced AI shows that advanced AI could be calamitous and leave a trail of pain and suffering for humans. According to AP, this is the first-of-its-kind international report, released on Wednesday ahead of the AI summit in Paris in February, cataloging the dangers posed by the fast-growing technology. Countries back the International Scientific Report The report details some of the dangers that could arise as a result of advanced AI and these include enabling terrorism and widespread job losses. This has already been experienced especially within the tech where thousands of jobs have been cut off as the companies automate, thanks to AI. According to AP, the report has the support of 30 countries including the US and China, a rare instance that the two biggest economies in the world are in cooperation. The two have been at each other’s throat as they fight for supremacy in AI. This week, Chinese startup DeepSeek stunned the world with its budget chatbot, although the US imposed stringent export controls on China. Prominent AI scientist Yoshua Bengio led the study, which is a fusion of already existing studies meant to guide authorities on drawing up guardrails for the fast-growing tech. “The stakes are high,” says the report, noting that a few years ago AI systems could barely produce a coherent paragraph. However, with recent development the AI can now generate realistic images, computer programming as well as hold extended conversations with users. According to the researchers, the dangers of advanced AI are already slowly being witnessed such as misinformation and disinformation, deepfakes, scams, and biases. “We need to better understand the systems we’re building and the risks that come with them so that we can take these better decisions in the future.” Bengio.…
