Maybe we are creating monsters that are stronger than us

Yashua Benjiu, a computer science scientist who is also known as one of the godfathers of artificial intelligence, has warned about the dangers of the uncontrolled development of this technology. He compared the development of artificial intelligence to the creation of monsters that are stronger than humans.

Yashua Benjiu is one of the people who has devoted most of his career to researching neural networks and deep learning algorithms. Products like ChatGPT and Claude are the direct result of this Canadian scientist’s research. He is concerned about the development of artificial intelligence and has expressed these concerns in an exclusive interview with Yahoo Finance.

According to Bengio, intelligence is a form of power, and anyone who can control this power at a human level or higher will be very, very powerful. He further said:

“In general, people who use technology want more power; Economic dominance, military dominance, political dominance. “We need to be very careful before creating technology that can concentrate power in dangerous ways.”

Yashua Benjiu in response to the question why should we worry about artificial intelligence at the human level? said:

“If it (artificial intelligence) falls into the wrong hands, it can be very dangerous. These tools could soon come to the aid of terrorists and state actors who want to destroy our democracies. Another issue that exists and has been pointed out by many scientists is how to train artificial intelligence. We do not clearly understand how we can prevent these systems from being independent and not have goals to protect themselves. We may lose control of these systems; Therefore, we are on the path to maybe create monsters that will be more powerful than us.”

Until now, many people from the field of technology and scientists have raised their concerns about the future of artificial intelligence and its effects on the future of humanity; For example, Bill Gates has recently made public his three biggest concerns about artificial intelligence. In contrast, some other technology executives believe that the world needs more and more advanced artificial intelligence and even more investments should be made in building artificial intelligence data centers.
