AI's potential for 'doom' estimated at 50% by former OpenAI researcher
Former OpenAI researcher, Paul Christiano, has expressed concern about the risk AI poses to humanity, stating that there is a 10-20% chance of AI takeover and a 50/50 chance of doom shortly after AI systems reach human level. Christiano's views differ from "AI doomer" Eliezer Yudkowsky's, as he believes the technology will develop more slowly. Recently, a group of AI experts signed an open letter calling for a 6-month pause on advanced AI development.
