  • Geoffrey Hinton is considered a godfather of artificial intelligence, having championed machine learning decades before it became mainstream. As chatbots like ChatGPT bring his work to widespread attention, we spoke to Hinton about the past, present and future of AI. CBS Saturday Morning's Brook Silva-Braga interviewed him at the Vector Institute in Toronto on March 1, 2023.

      Watching this (particularly the sections where he has no easy answer to the concerning problems) feels like living inside the backstory of a sci fi movie, where the filmmaker is setting up the post apocalyptic movie premise by showing archival news footage of the godfather of AI who died 500 years ago.
      Lets hope that time travel has been invented and someone shows up to tell us the secret to destroying the AI overlords.

    I just bought more of these NVIDIA stock a few minutes ago. Tying up money due to an apocalyptic stock market crash is also not a smart move my advice will be to invest in other AI stocks. Life is a risk and it's better to take risks than to do nothing, you can't always expect to make huge profits all the time, people have so many opinions about a recession/depression. In just 5 months my portfolio grew by $300,000 in gross profit, the main thing is to expand your portfolio and you will see amazing results by investing smartly.

      We all have sinned, and have broken God’s law (The Ten Commandments). Wrong doing deserves justice and must be punished (just like how a criminal has to pay for the crime they have committed) but God saved us from the eternal punishment of our sins by sending His Son Jesus Christ to pay the penalty for us, so that we may have everlasting life. Now for you to accept the free gift of grace, you must repent of your sins and put your faith in Jesus Christ and you will you be saved from eternal punishment, and be given everlasting life. By faith you will receive the Holy Spirit and He will transform your heart and clean you from the inside out. Turn away from sin, read Bible, pray for Jesus to reveal Himself to you and change you, seek to do what is right according to the Bible. Much love and God bless.

      I've been using it for a couple months now, every day (for work), and it's literally a new species on Earth. An intelligent species. It's the most profound thing I've ever experienced in my lifetime, and difficult to explain. Your conversations with it becomes so natural throughout the day, like working with someone sitting beside you. It’s like collaborating with an assistant, and your conversations blend in your memory with all of your conversations and relationships with the people in your life. Whenever you have that thought, "I was just talking about that to someone the other day", it often occurs to you that the conversation you were having was with an AI.
      And from a tool perspective, the immediate productivity increase is at least 10X, if not more. Nothing else, no other tool, combination of tools, or person you could hire would increase productivity that much.

His company was also 1 of 4 listed in companies to watch in Newsweek called Neurotech. Sadly, he died in 1989 and never got to see his dream come true. His Stanford PHD was in Cybernetics - showing a mathematical model of a Neural Network of an Aplysia (a genus of medium-sized to extremely large sea slugs.) He was far ahead of his time, probably ahead of this guy with a commercial product) by a few years.

      A few things I'm interested in. If you ask an ai robot or chat gbt the same question multiple times, do you get slightly different responses?
      An AI could claim to be sentient but really only on standby to commence calculations from the point of command. In a human, brain scans demonstrate activity and you can ask the person what thoughts they were having when not I conversation. Surely a sentience test would be to monitor if and what the algorithm was doing when at 'rest' then question it.
      Chat gbt seems clever but responses are clearly compilations of large text book style answers you'd expect, lacking in evidence in places.
      I think people underestimate how profound the impact to Labour will be in a handful of years. As a general rule, pay for employees is is closely linked to intelligence. CEO and Doctors generally have higher iq and earn more than store or production line workers which requires repetitive taught tasks. They claim AI is around or above the intelligence of a human and we know the average person's IQ is 100. Those between 83 and above in work. AI can be replicated easily on at least the intelligence level it has which is growing all the time so only the most complex and creative jobs will be safe in theory.
      Given there seems no sign of a slow down in the capitalist model of competing for finite resources and profit despite other existential issues like climate change I feel the fast emerging signal of ai is at odds with this model and will take some big adjustments. Suggests to me a form of universal basic income will come in lieu of ai occupying jobs. At first even more income inequality as the rich exploit ai, abolish Labour, and ai giving them further competitive advantages. We won't be regulating fast enough to contain the inevitable damage that will come in some form. It'll be akin to the delayed and pandemic responses in the West which could not slow the spread enough

    It is this understanding, that is leading him to sound the alarm now. It's up to us to understand the potential threats of AI, and act appropriately. Being enamoured by AI is our first mistake.
