Eliezer Yudkowsky has warned that the 'most likely result' of building a superintelligent AI is that 'literally everyone on Earth will die'—and that anyone trying to build this system should be threatened with nukes.


He believes that AI is gaining too many capabilities too quickly and that 'we're plunging toward a catastrophe' if nothing is done.

Yudkowsky is now calling on an 'indefinite and worldwide' pause on large-scale AI training projects

Mr Yudkowsky said preventing a superhuman AI from emerging is a bigger priority than stopping nuclear war

In a TIME column Yudkowsky said: "Shut it all down. We are not ready. We are not on track to be significantly readier in the foreseeable future.

"If we go ahead on this everyone will die, including children who did not choose this and did not do anything wrong. Shut it down."

He believes there should be 'no exceptions' for governments or militaries, and that international agreements need to be put in place to 'prevent a horrifically dangerous technology which can have no true owner' from killing everyone on Earth.

Yudkowsky added: "Make it explicit in international diplomacy that preventing AI extinction scenarios is considered a priority above preventing a full nuclear exchange, and that allied nuclear countries are willing to run some risk of nuclear exchange if that's what it takes to reduce the risk of large AI training runs."

Mr Yudkowsky leads the Machine Intelligence Research Institute and has been studying Artificial General Intelligence since 2001, meaning he knows a thing or two about AI—especially now it is becoming so sophisticated and widespread.read more...
