Jacob Coxon, a former researcher at Anthropic based in San Francisco, has warned that artificial intelligence could "kill us all" by the end of the decade after leaving his job. The 27-year-old researcher has advised the public not to underestimate the power of this technology, especially if it reaches the stage of "superintelligence."
Experts Warn About Serious Dangers of Artificial Intelligence
Coxon claims that not only Anthropic but also other companies like OpenAI, which are active in the field of artificial intelligence, are not responsibly addressing AI safety issues. Following these statements, many technology executives, scientists, and even global leaders have joined the discussion and raised alarms about the serious dangers of AI.
Difference of Opinions: Dangers or Opportunities?
Some analysts have pointed to the serious dangers of this technology, warning that AI could lead to attacks on nuclear power plants, create political chaos, and even be used with weapons of mass destruction. In contrast, others downplay these concerns and believe that calls to slow down progress are merely aimed at increasing corporate profits.
Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, has also acknowledged the serious dangers of artificial intelligence and called for a slowdown in the advancement of AI model capabilities. In a blog post, he stated that we must prevent economic crises and the misuse of AI.
On the other hand, Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, has addressed this issue and identified two dangerous paths for the future of artificial intelligence: losing control over the future and concentrating power in the hands of a single individual or company, which could lead to very devastating outcomes.
Meanwhile, Greg Stanton has also addressed these warnings and emphasized the need to pay attention to the serious dangers of artificial intelligence. He says, "We must ensure control over this technology and move towards the development of safe artificial intelligence." In this regard, some members of the UK Parliament have also called for a ban on the creation of artificial intelligence and the leadership of an international movement to halt this technology.
