Amidst the rise of ChatGPT, Google and Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai expressed his concerns over the advent of artificial intelligence (AI) and believes it poses a major threat to information and news. May disrupt workers’ jobs.
Speaking in an interview that aired Sunday, Pichai said the rapid development of AI will affect every company’s products, and highlighted how society needs to adapt to such technologies. Need to be prepared.
On Google’s chatbot Bard, Pichai said: “We need to adapt as a society.
The CEO added that among the jobs that will be disrupted by AI will be knowledge workers, including writers, accountants, architects and, ironically, software engineers.
This will affect every product in every company, notes Pichai, “For example, you can be a radiologist, if you think five to ten years from now, you have a AI will be supportive. In the morning, let’s say you have a hundred things to go through, it can say, ‘These are the most serious matters that you need to look at first’.
Highlighting his concerns over the threat to information, Pichai said the scale of the problem of misinformation and fake news and images would be huge, which he believed “could cause damage.”
In March, Pichai reportedly told employees that “the success of his newly launched Bard program now depends on public scrutiny,” adding that “things will go wrong.”
Bard is a chatbot that Google launched as an experimental product last month. The launch comes as Microsoft announced in January that its search engine Bing will now be relaunched with support for OpenAI’s widely popular ChatGPT technology.
The development has been followed by an open letter from technology executives, and AI researchers calling for a six-month break in building a system that could be more powerful than OpenAI’s ChatGPT 4.
In the letter, it was noted that AI labs are currently locked in an “out-of-control race” to develop and deploy machine learning systems “that no one—even their creators— nor can – understand, predict, or reliably control.”
Google also suggested some recommendations for regulating AI technology.
Referring to the concerns, Google’s CEO said, “Society needs to make AI safe for the world with regulations, laws, laws to punish abuses and treaties between nations as well as human values including ethics. must conform to the principles of conformity.”
He added: “It’s not for a company to decide. That’s why I think its development needs to involve not just engineers but also social scientists, ethicists, philosophers, etc.”
Asked whether society is ready for chatbots like Google’s Bard, he said: “On the one hand, I don’t think so, because the speed at which we can think and adapt as social entities, Compared to the speed at which technology is evolving, there seems to be no match.”
Nevertheless, he noted that “the number of people who started to worry about the implications of [AI]” did so very quickly.
When Bard was asked about recommending some books on inflation that didn’t exist, Pichai said that Bard was too delusional, adding that “a black box with chatbots.” is, where you don’t fully understand why and how it comes with certain reactions.”
Asked why a company would build such a chatbot without a full understanding, Pichai replied that humans still don’t understand how their brains work.
