The CEO of Google’s DeepMind unit believes that the next step after chatbots is the creation of artificial intelligence agents that have the ability to plan, act and reason.
These days, concerns about the uncontrolled development of artificial intelligence have reached their peak, and experts in this field have warned about its impact on the future of humanity. But CEOs in the tech world seem to be optimistic about the future of artificial intelligence regardless of these warnings. According to Business Insider, Demis Hassabis, CEO of Google’s DeepMind unit and winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, who attended The Times Tech Summit conference, explained his views on the future of artificial intelligence.
Artificial intelligence can achieve true reasoning in the next decade
According to Hassabis, the next stage of AI, after chatbots like ChatGPT that can passively answer questions or summarize texts, is systems based on AI agents with the following skills:
- Planning: These systems can think ahead, plan a trip or book a ticket.
- Action: These systems must be able to take action in the real world.
- Argument: These systems must think about problems. Hassabis pointed out that Google’s AlphaGo system has been able to beat humans in the Go game and demonstrate reasoning skills in the defined domain of the game. The next phase for agent-based systems is to apply such skills in the real world.
- Better memory: These systems must be able to remember the details that are told to them.
- Better personalization: They need to understand the user’s preferences and likes and dislikes.
- Using the tool: They can use hardware like real-world robots or software like calculators or even other artificial intelligence systems.
Of course, Hassabis further said that the full realization of comprehensive artificial intelligence that can reason as well as humans may take another decade.
Getting to the level of AI agent-based systems is exactly what Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang just mentioned. He recently said that he hopes Nvidia will become a company with 100 million artificial intelligence assistants.
