Recently, warnings from researchers inside the world’s largest artificial intelligence labs about the rapid pace of development have led to panic about the possibility that the technology could extinguish humanity. Those warnings are predicated on the idea that—propelled by ferocious competition and a rivalry between the US and China—labs are barreling toward superintelligent models whose abilities will far surpass those of humans.
Paolo Benanti, a theologian and advisor to Pope Francis, as well as President of the Commission on Artificial Intelligence, tells WIRED that this hysteria is distracting from the need for public debate about how to govern the technology. Benanti is worried that the focus on superintelligent AI is overshadowing more pressing concerns, such as the 'cartel' behavior among big labs. This behavior, driven by intense competition and the US-China rivalry, could have significant implications for the development and deployment of AI.
Benanti's concerns highlight the need for a more nuanced discussion about AI, one that goes beyond the specter of superintelligent machines. By focusing on the 'cartel' behavior among big labs, we can begin to address the real challenges and risks associated with AI, and work towards a more sustainable and equitable future for the technology.
