In recent months, a growing number of AI experts have warned that the current AI arms race could lead to the destruction of the human race.

Dagan Shani3 years ago

Most people are not aware of this danger, so in this video, using the words of the experts themselves, I make the case for taking seriously the risk of extinction from AI and the danger these companies are putting us all in.

Wonderful video！ the world should introduce a series of management measures against artificial intelligence as soon as possible. Otherwise, there may be very terrible disasters in human society

Dagan Shani3 years ago

Thanks! I totally agree!

This movie does not make any argument how AGI would come about, and why it would cause an extinction. It only has a couple of famous people saying: be afraid it will be bad. Who benefits from this scare tactic?

If we can’t trust the very people creating AI/AGI, then this is a really bad deal. Begin with trustworthy people as a minimum to even get past the starting line.

True, that's why OpenAI is scary.

Your periodic reminder that 'Don't look up' 🎬 is a documentary. It covers the (criminal!) gross negligence of politicians, media, AND scientists when facing a global existential threat. Remember: "People don't vote on climate" "Let's end with something positive!" "The truth is bad enough"

Biden opened up his campaign for President in 2019 by calling Trump an “existential threat.” Existential. As in a threat to our existence. Words carefully chosen by democrat operatives and repeated constantly for years.

Americans hear "51st state" as Trump trolling. Canadians hear it as an existential threat to their sovereignty. That gap in perception is why Carney can't afford to look conciliatory, even if the economics of retaliation don't add up. This isn't just a trade war anymore.

Where Do Your Loyalties Lie? "Democrats pose an existential threat to the nation." "Iran poses an existential threat to Israel." IF both rightwing claims are true, then their duty must first be to the viability of the coalition. War is an existential threat to that coalition.

As a former CIA officer and Pentagon official, I believe the single, greatest security threat to the US is the shrinking middle class. This is existential. As a national security professional, what do you do when there’s an existential threat? You get to work on a war plan.

In 2020, Bernie Sanders claimed humanity only had until 2026 to reverse the "existential threat" of climate change. "The scientists are telling us that if we don't act incredibly boldly within the next six, seven years, there will be irreparable damage done... to the entire world." "This is an existential threat.... We're fighting for the future of this planet."

🇵🇱 Nawrocki: For Poland, Vladimir Putin and Russia pose an existential threat, just as the Bolsheviks did in 1920. Poles hate Vladimir Putin, a war criminal and nothing more. As Poland’s president, I see him as a threat to the European idea, NATO’s eastern flank, and the EU.

Israeli-British Historian Prof. Avi Shlaim: ‘Iran is NOT an existential threat to Israel. Israel is the existential threat to Iran.’ ‘Netanyahu has been very successful in persuading the Israeli public that Iran poses an existential threat to Israel. That’s what he keeps repeating and that’s what Israelis believe. That’s why this high degree of support for the war. But Netanyahu is wrong. Iran is not an existential threat to Israel…Iran signed the non-proliferation treaty. Israel has refused to sign the non-proliferation treaty. Iran submitted to international inspection of its nuclear programme. Israel refuses to admit any international inspection of its army, let alone its nuclear programme. Iran has renounced the wish of producing nuclear weapons, whereas Israel has in the region of 200 nuclear warheads. So to sum up, Iran does not pose an existential threat to Israel. It’s Israel which poses an existential threat to Iran.’ -Prof. Avi Shlaim, Emeritus Professor of International Relations at the University of Oxford Watch the full interview in the quoted post below👇
