The Godfather of AI warns of technology surpassing human intelligence.

Geoffrey Hinton, the "godfather of artificial intelligence," who left his job at Google this week, is warning about the dangers AI poses to humanity. Hinton is calling for a global agreement similar to the 1997 Chemical Weapons Convention to establish international rules against weaponized AI. He argues that AI technology is becoming too powerful and could outsmart humans, creating a potential for these models to end humanity. Hinton's major AI breakthrough came in 2012, and he is responsible for a tech breakthrough that serves as the foundation of current AIs like ChatGPT.
