Geoffrey Hinton, the man widely seen as the godfather of AI, has warned of its dangers, as he quits his job at Google. How worried should we be, and what, if anything, can be done about it?

Years ago, we thought all this was science fiction and scoffed at how far fetched it all was.
That will teach us! wink

I think chatbots these days are still far from being more intelligent than us. Sure, they give answers real fast, but when you analyze them, you can still spot some hallucinations.

Hallucinations?

Just as an aside, has anyone else read "^Machines Like Me" by Ian McEwan?

That was fiction but raised interesting ideas.

Hallucinations?

Let me give an example, @Germanshepherdsmum. Say I asked my chatbot to help plan my trip to a new city. It tells me about a really cool restaurant it thinks I should visit. But when I look it up, there is no such restaurant at that location!

Chatbots are still learning, so sometimes they can be mistaken. But hallucinations are when the wrong details or made-up things are presented as facts. I have to check things myself to make sure the chatbot has its information right.

AI is only an educated robot it can be programmed to have emotions and to be aggressive or submissive according to who programmed it.

We are going to get caring robots and criminal robots but what happens when an autonomous robot that has self learned commits a criminal act.
