BILL Gates has spoken out against calls for to put a pause on the development of artificial intelligence.
Elon Musk along with over 1,000 AI experts recently signed an open letter which urges for a pause on creating new systems “more powerful” than current bots like ChatGPT.
As the CEO of Microsoft, Gates is already tied to OpenAI’s ChatGPT.
That’s because Microsoft is a backer of OpenAI’s new GPT-4.
That chatbot can have human-like conversations and write impressive chunks of texts on endless topics.
ChatGPT already has humans fearing for their jobs and experts now fear AI could pose great risks to society.
The recent open letter said: “Powerful AI systems should be developed only once we are confident that their effects will be positive and their risks will be manageable.”
However, Gates recently told Reuters that he does not agree.
The billionaire told the outlet: “I don’t think asking one particular group to pause solves the challenges.”
