Is AI development a threat to humanity?

Test it on Elon Musk?

It is also interesting that company leaders rather than “scientists” are going forward with this.
It looks very suspicious to me. For climate change petitions, we have many scientists with no “conflict of interest”, it is genuine, sincere and rightful. But when it is about AI, we have many CEOs that demand “more regulation”… Clearly, they all have a conflict of interest with this, it looks more like “we have already here, so let’s prevent others from reaching us with more regulation” kind of move…
I wonder your opinion… am I only seeing the bad side and ignoring the good, or am I right to suspect this…

The “more regulation” side is nothing new. We had the same in the UK when the electronic cigarette was introduced, and then e-liquids which you could buy cheaply online. The tobacco industry screamed from the rooftops about regulation, but only because they were losing a significant market share to these new boutiques popping up all over the place. They have no conscience about the carcinogenic risks of their own products - they just want you to stop buying cheaper (and cleaner) alternatives.
Same applies to the energy industry. Nuclear is off the table in some countries because the energy markets are where they make their money - think Oil, Gas, etc…
By their so called “regulation” they can make the market much smaller and only accessible to big tech companies who can afford to enter it with their huge R&D budgets.

I asked ChatGPT about this and what it thinks. It thinks halting the development completely is not the optimal solution.

Yeap, I totally agree. I am still angry about nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is the greenest and by far the most efficient one. But with bad media coverage, many people are against it and avoiding it as if it is leprosy.
It is very similar to plane crashes. Hundreds of people are dying because of car accidents every day, but no one really cares, but when a rare plane accident happens, the media will be onto it for several weeks. They are brainwashing us to accept one of them as “acceptable” and the other one as “unacceptable”…

@phenomlab from the article on the link…
But to worry about big changes is part of human nature. Clerics worried the printing press would make monks lazy in the 15th Century. Weavers smashed up machines in the 19th Century fearing they’d lose their livelihood.
Even your author snubbed the offer of a mobile phone in 1997 convinced they’d only be for “show-offs” and would never really catch on.

@crazycells The comment

Is worrying to say the least. How can you possibly comment on subject matter such as AI when you snubbed the concept of a mobile phone in 1997? Typical BBC.

@crazycells this one made me laugh - talk about using AI to it’s intended full potential

@phenomlab lol yeap, very smart… I read it and immediately ask the same question to ChatGPT and saved the letter sample
I might use it in the future.
