On the other are concerns about automated technology that’s already getting widely deployed by businesses and governments and can cause real-world harms. On one side are hypothetical scenarios of existential risk caused by computers that supersede human intelligence. Hinton declined further comment Tuesday but said he would talk more about it at a conference Wednesday.Īt the heart of the debate on the state of AI is whether the primary dangers are in the future or present. Google confirmed that Hinton had retired from his role after 10 years overseeing the Google Research team in Toronto.
He told MIT Technology Review that there’s also “a lot of good things about Google” that he would want to talk about - but those comments would be “much more credible if I’m not at Google anymore.” Since announcing his departure, Hinton has maintained that Google has “acted very responsibly” regarding AI.
“As long as I’m paid by Google, I can’t do that.” “I want to talk about AI safety issues without having to worry about how it interacts with Google’s business,” he told MIT Technology Review.
