Historian Yuval Noah Harari and DeepMind co-founder Mustafa Suleyman discuss the risks and control possibilities of artificial intelligence in a debate with The Economist's editor-in-chief.
An art collective called Theta Noir argues that artificial intelligence (AI) should align with nature rather than human values in order to avoid negative impact on society and the environment. They advocate for an emergent form of AI called Mena, which merges humans and AI to create a cosmic mind that connects with sustainable natural systems.
Mustafa Suleyman, co-founder of Google DeepMind and CEO of Inflection AI, believes that interactive AI is the next phase, surpassing generative AI, and that it is a profound moment in the history of technology.
Artificial intelligence (AI) can be used to improve lives and address global challenges, such as poverty, hunger, and climate change, according to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who emphasized the need to use AI to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in a speech at the New York Public Library. He highlighted the potential benefits of AI in various areas, including weather forecasting, agriculture, disease control, and clean energy, while acknowledging the risks and hazards associated with AI. The United States is committed to supporting AI innovation and governance, working with partners to develop international frameworks and involving a wide range of voices in the discussion.
