World-renowned physicist Stephen Hawking has often made startling remarks in recent years to warn the world. In a recent interview with The Times, he once again expressed concerns about artificial intelligence technology.
Hawking said that since the formation of human civilization, aggression from the dominant group of survivability has always existed, and the further development of new technologies (artificial intelligence) in the future may have this advantage, which may destroy us through nuclear war or biological warfare. Therefore, human beings need to use logic and reason to control the threats that may arise in the future.
So is it that Hawking himself is against the existence of artificial intelligence? In fact, he is a proponent of artificial intelligence technology, hawking believes that nowadays AI seems to have penetrated into various fields and promoted the development of society. This includes advancing autonomous cars, supporting Facebook's ad filtering features, and interacting with people around the world through virtual assistants like Apple's Siri and Amazon's Alexa. AI could even help eradicate long-standing societal challenges, such as disease and poverty. However, Hawking considered the longer term, believing that "artificial intelligence will threaten mankind", and humans must establish an effective mechanism to identify the threat as soon as possible to prevent the threat posed by artificial intelligence to mankind from rising further.
This is not the first time that Hawking has warned the world with a prophecy of destroying the world, from the previous aliens to the current artificial intelligence, Hawking's remarks can attract the attention of the public every time. Hawking's prediction this time can't help but be reminiscent of the movie "Terminator".
