Professor Geoffrey Hinton, a prominent computer scientist and winner of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics, has expressed his deep concern about the future of artificial intelligence in his recent interview with the BBC. He, who is known as one of the pioneers of this field, believes that the excessive development of artificial intelligence can be a serious threat to the survival of the human race.
In this interview, Hinton has estimated the possibility of human extinction due to the advancements of artificial intelligence between 10 and 20 percent in the next 30 years. Referring to the amazing speed of the development of this technology, he warns that artificial intelligence can quickly get out of human control and become a serious threat.
By comparing human intelligence with future artificial intelligence, this eminent scientist has come to the conclusion that humans will be like toddlers in front of powerful artificial intelligence. He believes that in the near future, human intelligence will decrease to the level of three-year-old children.
To deal with this serious threat, Hinton has called for stricter regulations for companies active in the field of artificial intelligence. He believes that the only way to prevent a disaster is the cooperation of governments and the establishment of international laws to control the development of this technology.
