I know I don’t post about it much on here, but I am of course very interested in technology, innovation and computers. I just came across this CNBC interview with an American entrepreneur called Paul Tudor Jones, and what he says is frankly alarming. He was apparently recently at a conference in the States where the future of Artificial Intelligence was discussed, and it seems to now pose quite an imminent threat: AI is now becoming so advanced and powerful that it poses an ‘imminent threat’ to humanity. The technology is becoming so advanced, and developing so quickly due to the competition between Russia, China and America, that it is thought that within twenty years it will put us all at risk. Of course, we should always treat such predictions with caution, but nonetheless I think what he says is quite an eye-opener. These days, we treat apps and websites etc which use AI as just a part of daily life; to think that it could soon become so problematic is alarming.
