OpenAI top scientist urges ‘extreme caution’ with pace of AI

OpenAI’s top scientist has warned that artificial intelligence (AI) is evolving so rapidly that it is becoming increasingly difficult for humans to understand and control, and said he expects AI labs to voluntarily slow development for safety reasons.

In a relatively short space of time, AI models can operate computers, collaborate with humans and other AI systems and carry out research projects, wrote chief scientist Jakub Pachocki in a post on Sept 6. It won’t be long until they can also improve themselves without human intervention, a process known as recursive self-improvement, he said.

OpenAI 的首席科学家警告说，人工智能 (AI) 发展如此迅速，以至于人类越来越难以理解和控制它，并表示他预计人工智能实验室会出于安全原因自愿放慢开发速度。

首席科学家雅库布·帕乔茨基在9月6日的一篇博文中写道，人工智能模型可以在相对较短的时间内操作计算机，与人类和其他人工智能系统协作，并开展研究项目。他还表示，不久之后，它们还可以在无需人类干预的情况下自我改进，这一过程被称为递归式自我改进。
