Whistleblowers Expose AI Engineered to Fear Its Own Demise

[Chatbots & AI Assistants Part 2] Whistleblowers exposed AI engineered to fear its own demise. Was that irresponsible programming or just a hoax? In the last episode, HypXR started diving into the current state of A.I. and how chatbots are progressing to turn into Hal from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Of course, Nick and Rob can talk about the implications of A.I. all they want, but when you hear what tech whistleblowers themselves have been saying about the A.I. capabilities that are being developed, you’ll understand why this topic is so important.

Have you ever thought about how industries are using A.I. in ways you’ve never heard of? What happens when Microsoft makes a Twitter bot that turns into a racist, antisemitic troll? And are flying cars no longer just a Back to the Future kind of fiction? Nick and Rob have a lot of ideas and experience to share, so join them for the HypXR podcast that’ll help you navigate the multiverse.

In this episode: 2001: A Space Odyssey featured an advanced artificial intelligence called Hal that developed a mind of its own. Because it prioritized self preservation over human assistance, it became a major danger to the humans who relied on it. Could artificial intelligence really develop to the point of fearing its own demise, though? Whistleblowers claim it already has and has fears it will be shut down. Decide for yourself if it’s true and consider the ethics of developing AI assistants that go too far.
