AI- Threat To Humanity

Artificial intelligence will change everything in the world, except how men think and behave . AI could pose a "more urgent" threat to humanity than climate change, Geoffrey Hinton, AI pioneer in AI said in an interview. Geoffrey Hinton, widely known as one of the "godfathers of AI", recently announced he had quit Alphabet after a decade at the firm, saying he wanted to speak out on the risks of the technology without it affecting his former employer.

There is growing concern about the possible threat posed by Artificial Intelligence if machines were to achieve greater intelligence than humans and take control of the planet.

AI is often in-built into third-party software, hardware, and services that are deployed to specific business units, potentially exposed to undiscovered risks in legal, reputational, data privacy, and operational areas. As enterprises engage more with AI-powered solutions, new risks will emerge, threatening the trust factor.

When we see the genesis of AI development, it is dominated by the private sector, with the tech industry producing 32 significant machine-learning models last year, compared with three produced by academia, could threaten jobs, increase the risk of fraud and infringe data privacy.

The US government said firms developing the technology had a “fundamental responsibility to make sure their products are safe before they are deployed or made public. At the same time, Geoffrey Hinton shares signatories concern that AI may prove to be an existential threat to mankind, he disagreed with pausing research.

As enterprises engage more with AI-powered solutions, new risks will emerge, threatening the trust factor. Business leaders must ensure every AI deployment is governed as per the framework suggested to ensure their AI runs ethically and profitably.
