The ‘godfather of AI’ reveals the only way humanity can survive superintelligent AI
Geoffrey Hinton warns AI may develop survival and control goals threatening humanity and proposes embedding caring maternal instincts into AI as a vital safeguard, citing a 10% to 20% extinction risk.
- Geoffrey Hinton, the godfather of AI, stated that humanity should design AI with "maternal instincts" to ensure protection against superintelligence.
- Hinton predicted a 10% chance of AI causing human extinction within the next 30 years, highlighting the risk to white-collar jobs before blue-collar ones.
- Hinton pointed out that without AI programmed to care for humanity, it may seek to replace us, stating, "If it's not going to parent me, it's going to replace me."
- Hinton advocates for international collaboration to prioritize developing AI systems that protect humanity rather than replace it.
