#650 - Geoffrey Miller - How Dangerous Is The Threat Of AI To Humanity?
Modern Wisdom
The Impact of AI on Humanity
One in six is the chance that humanity goes extinct due to AI within the next century. Toby Ord: To most people, that sounds absolutely insane and reckless. I think he genuinely believes that developing AGI will lead to a kind of awesome human utopia. He talks as if he understands the extinction risks. But there's some deep, deep cognitive dissonance, right? If he really took the extinction risks seriously, I think he would shut down open AI. They would no longer do research. This is toxic. This is crazy. Let's not do this."
