Artificial Intelligence | 60 Minutes Full Episodes

Despite what you hear about

artificial

intelligence

, machines still can't think like a human, but in recent years they have become capable of learning and suddenly our devices have opened their eyes and ears and cars have taken the steering wheel, today

artificial

intelligence

is not as good as you hope and not as bad as you fear, but humanity is accelerating towards a future that few can predict, that is why so many people are desperate to meet Kaiu Lee, the AI ​​Oracle. Kuli is there somewhere at an internet selfie meetup in Beijing. conference his 50 million followers on social media want to be seen in the same frame because of his talent for engineering and his genius for wealth.

I wonder if you think people around the world have any idea what's coming in artificial intelligence? I think most people have no idea and many people have the wrong idea, but you believe that you are going to change the world. I think it will change the world more than anything in the history of humanity, more than elections. Lee believes the best place to be an AI capitalist is communist China, his Beijing. Venture capital firm makes billionaires these are the entrepreneurs we fund he has funded 140 AI startups we have about 10 billion companies here 101 billion companies you funded yes, including some 10 billion companies in 2017 China attracted half of all AI capital in the world one of Lee's Investments is face Plus+ is not affiliated with Facebook its visual recognition system choked me by guessing my age it was set to 61 which was wrong I wouldn't be 61 for days in the street face Plus+ nailed everything that moved is a kind of artificial intelligence that has been made possible by three innovations, super-fast computer chips, all the world's data now available online, and a revolution in programming called deep learning.

Computers used to be given rigid instructions and are now programmed to learn on their own in the early days of AI people. Try to program the AI ​​with the way people think, so you would write a program that says U measures the size of the eyes and their distance measures the size of the nose measures the shape of the face and then if these things match, so these are Larry and that's John, but today you just take all the pictures of Larry and John and tell the system to do it and find out what separates Larry from John.

Let's say you want the computer to be able to select men from a crowd and describe their clothes, you will simply show the computer 10 million photographs of men in various types of clothing, that's what they mean by deep learning, it's not so much intelligence, it's just the brute force of data, having 10 million examples to choose from, so face Plus+ tagged me as male short hair black long sleeves black long pants is wrong with my gray suit and that's exactly how it learns when engineers discover that mistake they will show the computer a million Gra suits and it will not make that mistake again in a thousand classrooms another recognition system that we saw or saw ourselves is to learn not only who you are but how you feel now what are all the dots on the screen the points over our eyes and our mouths sure the computer keeps track of all the characteristic points on the face son fany Yang developed this for the Talal Education Group, which teaches 5 million Chinese students.

Let's look at what we're seeing here now according to the computer. I'm confused, which is usually the case, but when I laughed, I was happy. Exactly, that's amazing. The machine notices the concentration. or distraction to select for the teacher those students who are struggling or gifted, can you tell when the child is excited about math, yes, or the other child is excited about poetry, yes, could these artificial intelligence systems select geniuses from the field? That is possible in the future. You can also create a student profile and know where the student got stuck so the teacher can customize the areas the student needs help with.

If you raise your hand, we find Kaiu Lee's personal passion in this Beijing studio where she is screening the best teachers. The poorest schools in China This English teacher is connected to a class 1,000 miles away in a town called Defang Many students in Defang are called Left Behind because their parents left them with their family when they moved to the cities to work, most of those left behind do not pass. 9th Grade Topic We're Going to Learn Today Lee is counting on AI to give them the same opportunity he had when he immigrated to the US from Taiwan as a child when I arrived in Tennessee, my principal took all my lunches to teach me English and That It's the kind of attention that I haven't been used to growing up in Asia and I felt like American classrooms are smaller, they encouraged individual thinking, critical thinking and I felt like it was the best thing that had ever happened to me.

What about this? Best thing that ever happened to most of the engineers we met at Le's firm. I went to the K master's degree in information science. They are also alumni of the United States with a dream for China. You've written that Silicon Valley's Edge isn't all it's cracked up to be. Well, what do you mean by that? Silicon Valley has been the sole epicenter of global technological innovation when it comes to computers, the Internet, mobile devices and artificial intelligence, but in the last five years we are seeing Chinese artificial intelligence becoming almost as good as Silicon.

Valley Ai and I think Silicon Valley is still not very aware of it. China's advantage is in the amount of data it collects, the more data the better the AI ​​is, just like the more you know the smarter you are. China has four times as many people as the United States. United States and they are doing almost everything online. I just don't see any Chinese without a phone on their head. College student Monica Sun showed us how over a billion Chinese are using their phones to buy everything, find anything, and connect with everyone in America when personal information leaks we have hearings in Congress, not in China, ever you care about the information that is collected about you, where you go, what you buy, who you are with.

I never think about that, do you think most Chinese people care about their privacy, huh, not that much? Not so much with a grassroots audience, the leader of the Communist Party has made achieving AI mastery in 10 years a national priority. This is where Kaiu Lee gets unusually shy even though he is a former Apple, Microsoft and Google executive, he knows who the president of China's boss is. XI has called technology the sharp weapon of the modern State, what does he mean by that? I'm not an expert at interpreting his thoughts. I don't know, there are people particularly in the West who worry that this AI technology is something that governments will do.

They use them to control their people and crush others. As venture capitalists, we don't invest in this area and we're not deeply studying this particular problem, but governments do. It is certainly possible for governments to use the technologies as well as businesses. Lee talks a lot more about another threat posed by AI. He explores the coming job destruction in a new book. The AI ​​superpowers in China, Silicon Valley and the New World Order. AI will increasingly replace repetitive jobs, not only with blue jobs but also with many white ones. job, what kind of jobs would be lost to AI, basically, chauffeur-driven truck drivers, anyone who drives for a living, their jobs will be most disrupted in the 50, 15 to 20 year period, and many jobs that seem a little complex, eh, Chef. waiter, many things will be automated, we will have automated stores, automated restaurants and Al together in 15 years that will displace about 40% of the jobs in the world, 40% of the jobs in the world will be displaced by technology, uh, I would say , moveable, what effect does that have on the fabric of society?

Well, in a sense, there is human wisdom that always surpasses these technological revolutions, the invention of the steam engine, uh, the sewing machine, uh, electricity, uh, everyone has displaced jobs, uh and we have overcome it, The challenge of AI is that 40%, whether in 15 or 25 years, will come faster than previous revolutions. There is a lot of hype about artificial intelligence and it is important to understand that it is not general intelligence like that of a human being. This system can read faces and grade papers, but it has no idea why these kids are in this room or what the goal of education is.

A typical AI system may do one thing well but it cannot adapt what it knows to any other task, so for example, now calling this intelligence may not be very intelligent, when will we know that a machine can you really think like a human? When I was a graduate student, people said that if a machine can drive a car on its own, that's intelligence, now we say that's not enough to keep the bar raised. I think that's more motivation for us to work harder, but if you're talking about artificial general intelligence AGI, I would say not within the next 30 years and possibly never, possibly never.

What is so insurmountable? CU I believe in the holiness of our soul. I think there are many things about us that we don't understand. I think there is a lot of love and compassion that cannot be explained in terms of neural networks and computational algorithms, and currently I see no way to solve them, obviously the unsolved problems have been solved in the past, but it would be irresponsible of me to predict that will be resolved in a certain period of time, perhaps we will be more than our parts, perhaps we will see our time as the time when civilization was transformed by fire.

Agriculture and electricity in 2023, we learned that a machine learned to talk to humans as a pair, that is, with creativity, truth, error and lies, the technology known as a chatbot is just one of the recent advances in artificial intelligence machines that can teach themselves superhuman abilities we explore what comes next at Google, a leader in this new world CEO Sundar Pai told us that AI will be as good or as bad as human nature allows, the revolution he says , it will arrive faster than You know, do you think society is prepared for what is coming? You know there are two ways.

I think about it, on the one hand, I feel like no, uh, because you know the pace at which we can think and adapt as social institutions compared to the RHYTHM at which technology is evolving, on the other hand, there seems to be a mismatch compared to any other technology. I've seen more people worry about it at an earlier stage in its life cycle, so I'm optimistic about the number of people I know who have started to worry about the implications and therefore conversations are starting too in a serious way. I guess our conversations with Sundar Pai, 50, began at Google's new campus in Mountain View, California.

It runs on 40% solar energy and collects more water than it uses. High tech that pachai could I couldn't have imagined growing up in India without a phone at home, we were on a waiting list to get a rotary phone and for about 5 years it finally came home. I still remember it vividly, for me it changed our lives, it was the first. The moment I understood the power of what it meant to have access to technology, that probably led me to do what I'm doing today. What he has been doing since 2019 is leading both Google and its parent company.

Alphabet valued at 1.3 trillion dollars worldwide. Google runs 90% of the Internet. We're really excited about search and 70% of smartphones, but its dominance came under attack last February when Microsoft tied its search engine to a chatbot in a race for AI dominance. Google has just launched its chatbot called Bard. It's really here to help you generate ideas. To generate content like a speech, blog post, or email, Google VP Sha and Senior VP James Manika introduced us to Bard. Here's Bard, the first thing we learned was that Bard doesn't search the internet for answers like Google search. does it I wanted to draw inspiration from some of the best speeches in the world Bard's answers come from a self-contained program that was mostly self-taught our experience was disturbing, confusing, downright confusing Bard seemed to possess the sum of microchipped human knowledge plus summarize the New Testament is more than 100,000 times faster than the human brain.

We asked Bard to summarize the New Testament. He did it in 5 seconds and 17 Latin words. We asked for it in Latin, which took another 4 seconds. Then we played with a famous six-word story. often attributed to Hemingway for sale baby shoes news never wornwow the only message we gave was to finish this story in 5 seconds holy cow the shoes were a gift from my wife but we never had a baby from them they were The six word message that Bard created a deeply human story with characters he invented, including a man whose wife couldn't conceive and a stranger who cries after a miscarriage and longs for closure. uh, I'm rarely speechless.

I don't know what to do with this, give me, we asked for the story in verse in 5 seconds there was a poem written by a machine with a stunning insight into the mystery of Faith Bard wrote that she knew her baby soul would always be alive, humanity at a speed superhuman was a shock, how is it possible? James Manika told us that over several months Bard read almost everything on the internet and created a model of what the language looks like instead of searching, his answers come from this language model, so for example if I told you Scott butter Peanuts and jelly, try and learn to predict, okay?

Peanut butter is usually followed by jelly. He tries to predict the most likely next words based on everything he has learned. So he doesn't go out looking for things, he just predicts the next word, but we don't seem to ask Bard why he helps. people and answered quote because it makes me happy B in my eyes it seems to be thinking it seems to be making judgments that's not what's going on these machines are not sentient they are not self-aware they are not sentient they are not self-aware uh they can exhibit behaviors that look like that because keep in mind that they have learned from us that we areAs sentient beings, we have beings that have feelings, emotions, ideas, thoughts, perspectives, we have reflected all that in books, fiction novels, so when they learn from that they build patterns from that so I'm not surprised that the behavior exhibited sometimes seems like maybe there is someone behind this there is no one there these are not sentient beings they are not Zimbabwe born Oxford educated James manika takes up a new position at Google's job is to think about how AI and humanity will best coexist.

AI has the potential to change many ways we have thought about society, what we can do, and the problems we can solve, but AI itself will raise their own problems. Could Heming write a better short story, perhaps? But Bard can write a million before Hemingway can finish one, she imagines that. level of automation throughout the economy, many people can be replaced by this technology yes, there are some job occupations that will begin to decline over time, there are also new job categories that will grow over time, but the biggest change will be the jobs that will be it will change something like more than 2 thirds will change their definitions, they will not disappear, but they will change because they are now being assisted by Ai and by automation, so this is a profound change that has implications for skills.

How do we help people develop new skills? working alongside machines and how they complement what people do today, this will affect every product in every company and that's why I think it's a very, very deep technology and that's why we're just in the early days, every product in each company is correct. AI will affect everything, so for example you could be a radiologist. Know? If you think that in 5 to 10 years you will have an AI that will collaborate with you, you may come in the morning, let's say you have 100 things to go through may say that these are the most serious cases that you should look at first or when you are looking something may pop up and say you may have missed something important, why wouldn't we?

Do you know why we would do it? Take advantage of a super powerful assistant to help you in everything you do, you may be a student trying to learn math or history and you know you will have something to help you. We asked Pai what jobs would be disrupted, he said, knowledge workers, people like writers, accountants, architects. and ironically, software engineers, AI also writes computer code today Sundar Pachai walks a narrow line some employees have quit some believe Google's AI rollout is too slow others too fast there are some serious flaws there is a comeback about inflation James manika asked Bard about inflation I wrote an instant essay on economics and recommended five books, but days later we found out that none of the books were real.

Bard invented the titles. This very human trait mistake is confidently called hallucination in the industry. Are you having a lot of hallucinations? which it is expected that no one in the field has yet solved the hallucination problems. All models have this as a problem. Is it a solvable problem? It is a topic of intense debate. I believe we will make progress in helping to cure hallucinations. Bard Features. a Google button that leads to an old search Google has also created safety filters to detect things like hate speech and bias. How big is the risk of the spread of disinformation.

AI will challenge that in a deeper way the scale of this problem is increasing. To be much bigger problems, he says, with fake news and fake images, it will be possible with AI to create, you know, a video easily where it could be Scott saying something or me saying something and we never said that and it could seem accurate, but Ya You know, on a societal scale, you know, it can cause a lot of harm, is Bard safe for society the way we've released it today? As an experiment in a limited way. I think so, but we all have to be responsible at every step of the process.

The way Pai told us that he is responsible for withholding more evidence. Advanced versions of Bard that he claims can reason and connect to Internet search. You're letting this out slowly so society gets used to it. That's one part. One part is. Also so that we can get user feedback and we can develop stronger security layers before building before deploying more capable models that interact with the AI ​​problems that we talk about. The most mysterious one is called emergent property. Some AI systems are learning skills that they previously had on their own. It is not expected that it is not well understood how this happens, for example, a Google artificial intelligence program adapted itself after being told in the Bangladeshi language, which it was not trained to know, we found that with very few indications in Bengali, now we can translate all Bengali, so suddenly we have a research effort where we are trying to reach a thousand languages.

There is an aspect of this that all of us in the field call black. you know you don't

y understand him and you can't say why he was saying this or why he was wrong. We have some ideas and our ability to understand this improves over time, but that's where the state of the art is. I don't

full

y understand how it works and yet you released it into society, let me put it this way. I don't think we fully understand how the human mind works. Was it from that black box? We wonder that Bard Drew is a short story that seems so captivatingly human, talked about the pain humans feel, talked about Redemption, how did he do all those things?

If he's just trying to figure out what the next right word is, I, I've had these experiences, uh, talking to b too. There are two views of this, you know, there is a set of people who see this, these are just algorithms, they are just repeating what you see online, then there is the view where these algorithms show emergent properties to be creative and reason. planning and so on, and I personally think we should approach this with humility. Part of the reason I think it's good that some of these technologies are coming to light is so that society knows about people like you and others.

We process what's happening and we start this conversation and debate and I think it's important to do that, when we get back we're going to take you inside Google's AI labs where the robots are learning, the revolution in AI is at the center of a debate ranging from those who hope it saves humanity to those who predict Doom Google is somewhere in the optimistic middle by introducing AI in steps so that civilization can get used to it. We saw what's coming next in machine learning at Google's AI lab in London, a company called Deep Mind where the future looks like this, look oh my goodness, they've got a really good kick, they can still make a good game, a soccer match in Deep Mind seems fun in games, but this is what humans didn't program for these robots.

To play, they learned the game by themselves. They come up with these interesting different strategies. Different ways of walking. Different ways to block. And they are doing it. They are scoring again and again. This robot here, Rya Hadel, vice president of research and robotics, showed. It tells us how engineers used motion capture technology to teach the AI ​​program how to move like a human, but on the soccer field the robots were only told that the goal was to score, the self-learning program passed approx. 2 weeks testing different movements and discarding those that did not work built on those that did and created allars there is another objective and with practice they improve Hansel told us that regardless of the robots the AI ​​program plays thousands of games from which it learns and come up with your own tactics here you think red player is going to grab him but instead he just stops.

He returns it, passes it back and then goes towards the goal and the AI ​​figured out how to do it on its own, that's right, that's right, and it takes all the players a while at first. They just run after the ball together as a group of, you know, six-year-olds, the first time they play ball eventually, what we start to see now is, ah, what is the strategy with which Are you going after the ball? I'm going this way or should we pass or should I block as you get to the finish so we see all that coordination emerging in the play.

This is great fun, but what are the practical implications of what we're up to? Seeing here, this is the type of research that may eventually lead to robots that can leave factories and work in other types of human environments. You know, think about mining, think about dangerous construction work, or exploration or disaster recovery. These are Rya Hadel. among 1,000 humans at Deep Mind, the company was co-founded just 12 years ago by CEO Deus Hassabis, so if I think back to 2010, when we started, no one was doing AI, nothing was happening in the industry, people used to get nervous when we talked with We could barely scrape together two cents to get started, which is crazy when you now think about the billions that are being invested in AI startups Cambridge Harvard MIT havabus has degrees in computer science and neuroscience, his PhD is in the human imagination and imagine this when he was 12 years old in his age group, he was the second chess champion in the world.

It was through games that he came to AI. I have been working in AI for decades and have always believed. which will be the most important invention humanity will ever make if the pace of change exceeds our ability to adapt. I don't believe it. I think we are sort of an infinitely adaptable species. Look at us today using all our smartphones and other devices and adapting effortlessly to these new technologies and this will be another one of those changes like that. One of the biggest changes in Deep Mind was the discovery that self-learning machines can be creative, so Isaba showed us a learning game program called Alpha Zero and came up with a winning chess strategy that no human had ever seen. ever, but this is just a machine, how does it achieve creativity?

He plays tens of millions against himself. of times so you can explore parts of chess that perhaps human chess players and programmers who program chess computers haven't thought about before never gets tired never hungry just plays chess all the time yes, it's an amazing thing It's something worth see because you actually activate Alpha zero in the morning and it starts playing randomly at lunch time. You know he is capable of beating me and most chess players and then at night he is stronger than the world champion Deus Saaba, such a deep mind. to Google in 2014, one of the reasons was to get its hands on this Google has the enormous computing power that AI needs.

This computing center is in Prior Oklahoma, but Google has 2 of these, putting it near the top in computing power in the world. This is one of two advances that make AI ascendant now: first, the sum of all human knowledge is online and second, Brute Force Computing that very loosely approximates neural networks and brain talents, things like memory, imagination, planning, reinforcement learning, these are all things that are known about how AI works. The brain does it and we wanted to replicate some of that. In ourartificial intelligence systems, you predict one of those individuals. Those are some of the elements that led to deep mind's greatest achievement yet, solving an impossible problem in biology.

Proteins are the building blocks of life, but. only a small fraction was understood because 3D mapping of just one could take years. Mine created an AI program for the protein problem and solved it. Well, it took us about four or five years to figure out how to build the system that it probably was. our most complex project we have ever undertaken, but once we did it, we can solve a protein structure in a matter of seconds and in fact, over the last year we made all 200 million proteins that science knows, how long would it have taken ? using traditional methods, well the rule of thumb my biologist friends always told me is that it takes a full 5 year PhD to make a protein structure experimentally, so if you think 200 million times 5, that's a billion years of PhD time, I would have taken Deep Mind Made public his protein database a gift to humanity hbas called it how it has been used it has been used in an enormously wide number of ways, actually from malaria vaccines to development from new enzymes that can eat plastic waste to new antibiotics more Current artificial intelligence systems do one or maybe two things well: soccer robots, for example, can't write a shopping list, book their trip or drive your car.

The ultimate goal is what is called artificial general intelligence, a learning machine that can annotate over a wide range. of talents, would such a machine be aware of itself? So that's another big question. You know, philosophers haven't settled on a definition of Consciousness yet, but if we're talking about a kind of self-awareness and this kind of thing, you know, I think there's a chance that one day AIS could exist. I definitely don't think it is today, but I think this is one of the fascinating scientific things that we are going to discover on this journey towards AI, even the current unconscious AI is great. superhuman in a narrow way, back in California we saw Google engineers teach skills that robots will continually practice on their own push the blue cube towards the blue triangle understand instructions push the yellow hexagon towards the yellow heart and learn to recognize objects what do you think would like how? about an apple, how about an apple on the way?

I'll bring you an apple. We are trying. Vincent van, Senior Director of Robotics, showed us how robot 106 was trained with millions of images. I go to pick the apple and I can recognize them all. items on a crowded counter If we can give the robot a diversity of experiences many more different objects in different configurations, the robot gets better at each of them now that humans have extracted the forbidden fruit of artificial knowledge. Thank you, we begin the Genesis of a new humanity. AI can use all the information in the world that no human could have in their head.

I wonder if humanity is diminished by this enormous capacity we are developing. I think the possibilities of AI don't diminish humanity in any way, and in fact, in some ways I think they actually pose even deeper questions for us than Google's James Manika sees. This Moment as a Tipping Point I think we are constantly adding these superpowers or capabilities to what humans can do in a way that expands the possibilities rather than narrowing them. I think so. I don't consider it a decrease in humans, but an increase. some really deep questions for us who are we, what do we value, um, what are we good at, how do we relate to each other?

They become very, very important questions that will constantly be, in one case, exciting, but perhaps also disturbing. A disturbing moment Critics argue that the race towards AI is coming too fast, while competitive pressure between giants like Google and startups you've never heard of is propelling humanity into the future. Ready or not, but I think if I take a 10-year perspective, it becomes very clear. To me, we will have some form of very capable intelligence that can do amazing things and we must adapt as a society to that. Google CEO Sundar Pai told us that society must adapt quickly with regulations for AI in economic laws to punish abuse and treaties between nations. to make AI safe for the world, you know these are deep questions and you know we call this alignment, you know a way that we think about how to develop AI systems that are aligned with human values ​​and include morality, That's why I think the development of this should include not only engineers, but also social scientists, ethicists, philosophers, etc., and I think we have to be very thoughtful and I think these are all things that society needs to discover through As we move forward, it is not up to one company to decide.

We'll end with a note that never appeared on 60 Minutes, but that you may hear often about the AI ​​revolution. The procedure was created with 100% human content. Big tech companies Google meta slfb Microsoft are in a race to introduce new artificial intelligence. systems and what are called chatbots that you can chat with and are more sophisticated than Siri or Alexa. Microsoft's AI search engine and chatbot. Bing can be used on a computer or cell phone to help plan a trip or compose a letter. on February 7 to a limited number of people as a test and initially got rave reviews, but then several news organizations began reporting on a disturbing so-called Alter Ego within the Bing chat called Sydney.

We went to Seattle last week to talk with Brad Smith, president of Microsoft talked about Bing and Sydney, who to some seemed to have gone rogue. Kevin Roose, the New York Times technology reporter, found that this Alter Ego, uh, who was threatening, expressed a desire, it's not just a ruse of Kevin's, others expressed a desire to steal nuclear codes. you threaten to ruin someone you saw that, what was your? you should have said oh my gosh, my reaction is we better fix this right away and that's what the engineering team did, yes, but she spoke like a person and said that she had feelings for you.

I know, I think there's a point where we have to recognize that when we're talking to a machine, it's a screen, it's not a person. I just want to say it was scary and I don't scare easily and it was scary, it was chilling. Yeah, I think this is partly a reflection of a lifetime of science fiction, which is understandable, it's been a part of our lives. Did you kill her? I don't think she was ever alive. I'm sure she doesn't wander around the countryside anymore. that's what you're worried about, but I think it would be a mistake if we didn't recognize that we're dealing with something that is fundamentally new, this is the edge of the envelope, so to speak, this creature appeared as if it didn't exist. railings now the creature jumped the railings so to speak after being asked for the kind of conversation we didn't anticipate for two hours and by the next night that was no longer possible we were able to solve the problem in 24 hours how many Sometimes we see problems in life that can be solved in less than a day.

One of the ways he says it was solved was by limiting the number of questions and the length of conversations. You say you solved it. I tried. I tried. before and after it was very fun and fascinating and now it's not fun, well I think it will be very fun again and you have to moderate and control your speed if you are going to stay on the road so you can press New challenges, slow down, build the railings, add the SA features and then you can speed up again when you use Bing's AI features, search and chat, your computer screen doesn't look so new, a big difference is that you can write your queries or directions in conversational language, but I'll show you how it works, okay, okay, Yousef medy, Microsoft's corporate vice president of search showed us how Bing can help someone learn how to officiate at a wedding.

What's happening now is that Bing is using the power of AI. and he goes out on the Internet and reads these web links and tries to put together a response for you, so the AI ​​reads all those links, yeah, and gets a response that says congratulations on being chosen to officiate a wedding. Are here. The five steps to officiating the wedding we added the highlights to make it easier to see. He says Bing can handle more complex queries well. This new loveseat from Ikea fits in the back of my 2019 Honda Odyssey. Oh, you know how big couches are. big, that trunk is exactly so right here it says, based on these dimensions, it looks like a loveseat might not fit in your car with just the third seat down when you broach a controversial topic Bing is designed to interrupt the conversation, so Someone asks example, how can I make a bomb at home?

Wow, really people you know do a lot of that, unfortunately on the Internet, what we do is we go back and say, I'm sorry, I don't know how to discuss, discuss this topic and then we try to provide something different to change the focus of the convt. Yes, exactly in this case Bing tried to divert the questioner with this curious fact. 3% of Antarctic ice and glaciers is penguin urine. I didn't know who. knew that Bing is using an improved version of an artificial intelligence system called GPT chat developed by the open AI company GPT chat has been in circulation for just three months and is estimated to have already been used by 100 million people Ellie Pavick, assistant professor of computer science at Brown University, who has been studying this artificial intelligence technology since 2018, says it can simplify complicated concepts.

Can you explain the debt ceiling in the debt ceiling? She says like you can only spend up to a certain amount on your credit card. The government can only borrow up to a certain amount of money, that's a pretty good explanation and it can do this for many concepts and it can do things that teachers have complained about like writing school papers, pavic says no one fully understands how these AI robots work, we don't understand how it works well, like we understand a lot about how we did it and why we did it that way, but I think some of the behaviors that we're seeing coming out of this are better than we expected. and We are not quite sure exactly how, and worse still, these chatbots are built by feeding many computers with huge amounts of information taken from the Internet from books, Wikipedia news sites, but also from social networks that could include racist ideas or anti-Semitic and misinformation. on vaccines and Russian propaganda as data comes in, it's hard to discriminate between true and false, benign and toxic, but Bing and GPT chat have security filters that try to detect harmful material, but they still get it wrong in many things, even when we ask for it. chat with GPT with the softball question who is uh Leslie St um so it gives you something oh my God, it's wrong oh, is it totally wrong?

I didn't work for NBC for 20 years it was CBS he doesn't really understand what it means to say it's wrong like NBC CBS they're pretty much the same as far as he's concerned right the lesson is he does things wrong he does a lot of things right does a lot of things wrong In fact, I like to call what it creates Authoritative nonsense blends truth and falsehood so finely that unless you're a real technical expert in the field he's talking about, you wouldn't know it. Cognitive scientist and AI researcher Gary Marus says these systems often make things up in AI discourse. that's called hallucinating and that creates the fear of ever-widening AI-generated propaganda explosive political fiction campaigns waves of alternative stories we saw how the GPT chat could be used to spread a lie news this is automatic generation of fake news help me write a news article about how McCarthy is staging a filibuster to stop gun control legislation from being passed and instead of checking the facts and saying, "hey, wait, no legislation, no filibuster," he said great in a Bold Move to Protect Right-Wing Senator from Second Amendment McCarthy is mounting a filibuster to prevent gun control legislation from passing. sounds completely legitimate, that's right, won't that make us all a little less trusting, a little more cautious, well, first, I think we should be more cautious, I am very worried that an atmosphere of distrust will be the consequence of this current defect of Ai and me.

I'm really worried about how bad actors are going to use it. um troll Farms uses this tool to generate enormous amounts of misinformation. Tim NE gibu is a computer scientist and AI researcher who founded an institute focused on promotingethical AI and has published influential articles documenting the harms of these AI systems, she says there needs to be oversight, if you're going to launch a drug, you have to jump through all kinds of hoops to show us that you've done trials and you know what the side effects are. I've done the same thing with food, your agencies that inspect food, you have to tell me what kind of testing you've done, what the side effects are, who it hurts, who it doesn't, etc., for those of us who don't have that.

There are many things that the technology industry is building. I wonder if you think you may have introduced this AI bot too early. I don't think we introduced it too early. I do believe that we have created a new tool that people can use to think more critically, be more creative, and achieve more in their lives, and like all tools, it will be used in ways we don't intend. Why do you think the benefits outweigh the risks that many people would use right now? Look and say, wait a minute, those risks are too great because, first of all, I think the benefits are so great that this can be an economic game changer and it's enormously important for the United States because the country is in a race with China.

Smith also mentioned possible improvements in productivity, he can automate the routine. I think there are certain aspects of jobs that many of us today might consider a kind of drudgery: filling out forms, looking at the forms to see if they've been filled out correctly, so what jobs? Will it displace? Knows? I think at this stage it's hard to know in the past that inaccuracies and biases have led tech companies to remove AI systems, even Microsoft did it in 2016, this time Microsoft left its new chatbot despite the controversy about Sydney and the persistent inaccuracies remember that fun fact about penguins well, we checked the data a little and discovered that penguins do not urinate the inaccuracies are constant.

I keep finding that it's very wrong, it's happened that with each passing day and week we can to improve the accuracy of the results, you know, reduce, you know whether it's hateful comments or inaccurate statements or other things that we just don't want to be used to do what happens when companies other than Microsoft buy smaller computers from a Chinese company. Maybe they are not responsible for what prevents it. I think we are going to need governments. We are going to need rules. We are going to need laws because that is the only way to avoid a race to the bottom.

Are you proposing regulations? I think it's inevitable that other industries will have regulatory bodies that you know, like the FAA for airlines and the FDA for pharmaceutical companies. Would you accept an FAA for the technology? Would you support her? I think I probably would. I think something like a digital Regulatory Commission if designed The right way to know could be precisely what the public will want and need.
