Former Google Employee Against AI

One of the former employees of Google, Apple and Microsoft,
Kai-fu Lee, spoke about the main threats that artificial poses to
humans, according to Yahoo! Finance. The main threat, according
to the expert, can be called "smart" weapons of an autonomous
nature, which can be easily taught to kill people on their own.
Technology like this will completely change wars. It will be
unrealistic to identify those responsible for the hostilities, because
weapons will become available. It has fast programming speed and
high precision. Already today you can spend as little as a thousand
dollars and create a small machine that can kill. Negative
consequences arise when an AI begins to perform a specific task and
at the same time does not pay attention to everything else. Artificial
intelligence also collects information about people, which must
remain confidential. On the one hand, it allows the Internet user to
be offered suitable films, music or goods. On the other hand, this is
a great opportunity to compromise this or that person. The machine
cannot explain why it made any particular decision in an important
situation where human life is at stake. Initially, AI is programmed in
such a way as to choose the most profitable and effective solution,
which will not always be easy for humans. The expert summed up.
