Musk on artificial intelligence
In just half a year, Musk, a supporter of the "AI threat theory", has repeatedly expressed concerns about artificial intelligence.
In February, Musk said at the 2023 World Government Summit in Dubai, UAE, that ChatGPT confirmed that artificial intelligence (AI) has made incredible progress, but it has become something that humans should worry about.
On March 28, the Future of Life Institute released an open letter calling on all AI labs to immediately suspend the training of AI systems more powerful than GPT-4 for at least six months. The letter has been signed by more than 1,100 people. In the list, Tesla founder Musk, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis and many other artificial intelligence experts and industry executives are prominently listed.
In mid-April, in an interview with CNN, Musk threw out his own views, warning people about the dangers of artificial intelligence, which may lead to people's job losses, and what the existence of Al leads to the "destruction of civilization".
News on May 25, at a CEO summit held in London on Tuesday, Tesla CEO Elon Musk once again warned about the potential risks of artificial intelligence. He said AI has the potential to control humans and become a sort of "super nanny" with control over all human safety. While the possibility of destroying humanity is slim, it is not absolutely non-existent.
