Today, and although many sectors have changed for good, some see artificial intelligence as something miraculous, but experts are already throwing the brake, warning that you have to be realistic and take care of the course.
The reason is simple, as Mustafa Suleyman, founder of Deepmind with Demis Hassabis, the company that led artificial intelligence to another level, now CEO of Microsoft AI. «The AI can not only help us advance as humanity, you can also open the door to a dystopia, undesirable and catastrophic,» warns.
«This wave of AI can expand us, multiply our power, but also create a state of surveillance and control that limits personal freedom,» he says. «We are talking about a massive data compilation, with technology that can control every aspect of our lives. That can produce a world where privacy is a luxury and dissent, impossible,» he adds.
Of course, clarifying that even he recognizes that the idea of controlling every detail may sound exaggerated, but «it is only a matter of time until these marginal ideas become accepted policies, especially when the risks of pandemics or technological scenarios are used as justification.»
With this as a base, Suleyman insists that many governments, especially authoritarian, will not hesitate to use technology for their benefit, even if that means throwing freedoms and privacy of people by land.
«When they feel that your authority is at stake, when fear dominates, the answer will be to harden control, confine more, watch more. At what price? That is the big question,» he says.
The next step is now to create a global regulation that encompasses all aspects of this technology, from research to the final application, since, the only way to prevent something from escaping to control is to close all holes.
Does artificial intelligence deserve to have rights? The expert responds
Recently the first organization arose, so to speak, in contemplating the rights of artifice intelligencel. Those responsible recognized that there is no certainty that AI has conscience as such, but that, despite this, it was worth keeping in mind «just in case.» Elon Musk himself was excited about the proposal.
Naturally, the Foundation for the Rights of AI, which is the name of the invention, soon generated opinions found. The majority of experts agree that they are farragoso land. Now it has been precisely one of the greatest specialists in the field, Mustafa Suleyman, who since his position in Microsoft has valued the complicated idea.
As for whether it is worth it or not, IA has rights, Suleyman fully rejects the initiative. No, artificial intelligence should not have rights, but Microsoft’s CEO is overwhelming about it.
«It is so dangerous and so wrong,» he warns, as they collect in Business Insider. Why Granting rights to this technology would not be something anecdotal, but would have uncertain ethical implications.
This has no qualms when admitting that AI can generate very convincing responses. Moreover, sometimes interacting with her can suggest that she even has emotions or that she has what is called awareness. But one thing is what reality seems and another, he says. What the AI does, in his opinion, is nothing more than ‘Mimicry’. That is, pure mimicry, without more.
The expert’s reflection is clear. For something to have rights, he says, he has to have the ability to suffer. Something that biological beings if they experience, also more frequently than anyone would like. Does artificial intelligence have the ability to suffer? Suleyman contradicts Elon Musk and his answer is negative. Therefore, it does not deserve rights or similar protection.
