This article on The Telegraph (unfortunately, behind a paywall) reports that a professional body for technology workers has suggested that people should be required to have a licence in order to develop AI. Although it is a nice idea, it seems to be totally unenforceable. Nevertheless, it gives a good indication of how dangerous groups in the know feel AI is. This report on The Guardian discusses the problem of "hallucination", which is when you ask an AI chatbot for a definition of something made up, and it gives you one, along with detailed footnotes. This is potentially extremely dangerous. The most concerning article that I have seen about AI in the last few days is this report on ZDNet. The author asked different AI chatbots what worried them. The answer seems to be, AI worries them. That is totally frightening. | |
