CHAMBERSBURG \u2013 Artificial Intelligence is clearly the wave of the future.\u00a0It\u2019s becoming more and more a part of daily life and living.<\/p>\n
But what happens when, as the movie (and a lot of sci-fi shows) suggested, it starts thinking for itself?<\/p>\n
Anthropic, the world\u2019s largest AI lab, said the technology is quickly on its way to what is called recursive self improvement, essentially meaning it would think for itself.<\/p>\n
Attorney Clint Barkdoll said, \u201cRecursive self improvement \u2013 I\u2019ve never heard that term. I have a feeling we\u2019re going to be hearing a lot of this term over the next few months. This recursive self improvement is when AI systems can improve on their own without any human intervention.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to the Wall Street Journal, AI insiders have seen that threshold, recursive self-improvement, as a potential marker of danger and enormous societal upheaval.<\/p>\n
Barkdoll said, \u201cWhat Anthropic is saying to the world, they think these AI developers, they need to put a pause on how quickly this AI is developing. They think they\u2019re getting dangerously close to this recursive self-improvement, where the AI platforms, the bots, just keep developing on their own without any human intervention, so we\u2019ll want to keep watching that we\u2019ve been hearing these warnings time after time. This warning from Anthropic yesterday, I think, is sort of the most chilling one to date.\u201d<\/p>\n
Anthropic is going out for an Initial Public Offering on the stock market this fall \u2013 that could be a serious issue.<\/p>\n
Pat Ryan of News Talk 103.7FM pointed out, \u201cWhen these tech companies go public like that, the level of involvement and the communication between, like, developers and the big brainiacs, that stuff gets parked because they\u2019re trying for more profit.\u201d<\/p>\n
Michele Jansen of News Talk 103.7FM said, \u201cThat\u2019s the worst timing, no norms, no ethics, no standards, morality down the drain, and then a bunch of guys that are very narcissistic and egoistic and godlike in the way they see themselves, they\u2019re not going to stop. I don\u2019t know how you stop them.\u201d<\/p>\n
Barkdoll said, \u201cWhen you see in this reporting that AI insiders see this threshold as creating enormous societal upheavals, that\u2019s a very serious statement that I think people need to be aware of.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ryan asked, \u201cWhere are the launch codes, and what about some sort of chaos being sown that is not from the actual people itself, and you can\u2019t unplug the damn thing.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jansen suggested, \u201cIt\u2019s got too many tentacles out there in so many places, and we see they\u2019ve already proved it does have a self-preservative attitude about it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Barkdoll said, \u201cPart of this post yesterday, Anthropic is saying that this recursive self-improvement, it hasn\u2019t happened yet, and it isn\u2019t inevitable, but it\u2019s coming sooner than most institutions are prepared for, and again, they\u2019re saying without some kind of a regulation or a formal pause put in place, this is quickly getting out of hand.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CHAMBERSBURG \u2013 Artificial Intelligence is clearly the wave of the future.\u00a0It\u2019s becoming more and more a part of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":64698,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[53,8514,23733,36593],"class_list":["post-64697","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-anthropic","tag-anthropic","tag-improvement","tag-recursive","tag-warns"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64697","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=64697"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64697\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/64698"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=64697"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=64697"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=64697"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
