Igor Pivovarov, principal analyst of the MIPT Center for Artificial Intelligence, told socialbites.ca that the creation of a powerful artificial intelligence could turn into serious problems for humanity.
“Once a strong AI emerges, compared to it, a person will be evolutionarily behind. We will create an evolutionary competitor ourselves. Although many other researchers deny this possibility, they believe it is nonsense and it will not happen, I think there is definitely such a risk,” he said. .
According to Pivovarov, there is a paradox in this regard: While it is possible to create a real artificial intelligence only by creating a human inside it, on the other hand, by making it a self-aware human, humanity creates existential risks. for himself.
“What we wanted to create turned out to be potentially extremely dangerous. But for now, all this is pretty philosophical reasoning, because until now humanity did not really understand how to make powerful artificial intelligence. This is clearly far away,” Pivovarov concluded.
