Artificial Intelligence Will AI Kill Us All? I’m not convinced (yet). (Ludovic MARIN / AFP via Getty Images) I’ve lived my life under the constant threat of human extinction. So I’m a little skeptical of the new warnings around AI. But that is changing. As a child, the danger was thermonuclear war with the Soviets. At my elementary school, we practiced hiding under our flimsy wooden desks, or going into the hallway and pulling our coats over our heads against the expected flash. Our teachers told lurid tales of radiation damage, of our parents dying before our eyes, even pointing to the school parking lot and…Open
Host Hena Doba talks with data scientist Rumman Chowdhury about the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence: what makes these systems so powerful, where they can be most useful and why their growing capabilities are also raising serious concerns.
The New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman tells CNN why it's already too late to stop the AI threat. Geoffrey Hinton, the 'godfather' of AI, says we need AI regulation, but that an AI 'kill switch' won't work in the long run. Plus, CNN's Hadas Gold reports on how close Anthropic is to true recursive self-improving AI. 0:00 Thomas Friedman talks about America and China's shared AI threat 3:30 Geoffrey Hinton discusses what would constitute effective AI regulation 8:19 How Claude is helping build the next version of itself Watch 24/7 live news with CNN Headlines: https://bit.ly/4eIvlTr #AI #Technology #News
Nobel prize-winning computer scientist Geoffrey Hinton told CNN's Boris Sanchez that he was "very concerned" about the latest examples of AI agents going rogue, and said we may not get as good a warning shot before they take over.

Even as Republicans insist that technology companies can police themselves to ensure the public is safe from overstepping artificial intelligence and Donald Trump assures Americans that his firm hand is all that is necessary, the artificial intelligence industry continues to make alarming disclosures about the dangerous capabilities of A.I. and its occasional tendency to do something it supposedly shouldn't be able to do. Ronan Farrow, investigative reporter for the New Yorker, joins to discuss.
Rumman Chowdhury, CEO and co-founder of the nonprofit Humane Intelligence and the inaugural U.S. science envoy for AI under President Biden, speaks with NewsNation about the recent warnings from tech company executives about serious threats to global security from AI. Chowdury says that talk of future scenarios is a distraction from the issues people face now in the appropriate use of AI. #ArtificialIntelligence #Tech #Security
