"60 Minutes" is the most successful television broadcast in history. Offering hard-hitting investigative reports, interviews, feature segments and profiles of people in the news, the broadcast began in 1968 and is still a hit, over 50 seasons later, regularly making Nielsen's Top 10.

The only thing slowing down Google is ... they're still figuring out how to paste as many ads onto it as possible.

"An advanced Artificial Intelligence that does not make mistakes will immediately recognize humans do."

CAPITALISM forces companies and businesses to ignore the possible dangers by NEEDING to be first to make the most money.

we honestly need to slow down. Even the experts can't begin to understand the implications or abilities of this technology. It's getting here much faster than they thought it could just several years ago, and once the singularity is reached, there is no going back. Private companies motivated by profits cannot be trusted to pursue this without regulation. Individual governments cannot be trusted to be the sole regulators; they too must be overseen and regulated with this type of tech. Politicians and shareholders with abysmally poor tech literacy cannot make these decisions for us. The possibilities of misuse by bad faith actors cannot be ignored. Even neutral and well-intended actions could lead to significant consequences with this type of tech. We need to think really damn hard about every possibility we can before go down this road and do it carefully. We don't even yet understand our own brains or consciousness. We've learned a ton about the brain, but we've only just scratched the surface. We *cannot* rush this.

Final thought; look at how much life has changed since the advent of the internet a few decades ago, or, say, with smartphones in the 00s. We haven't even had time to adapt to that (it will take us hundreds of generations if we go by pure evolutionary time) and those advances have come with huge downsides in addition to the positives (ie the rise of depression, isolation, misinformation, anti-intellectualism, destruction of privacy, etc). We need time to deal with what we've already done before we jump into something so significant that those other advances pale in comparison. Just because we can does not mean we need to. We need to be mindful. **copied my comment from another 60 mins video

🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👏🏻, As a medical doctor, I witness the suffering and death of cancer patients every day. I believe we need to develop artificial intelligence to the level where it can help us discover cures for diseases like cystic fibrosis, HIV and various types of cancers at the molecular level. Otherwise, we might end up being the next ones on that chair, waiting for a doctor to check our blood and tell us if we have any chance of survival or not before we die…

We must look out for folks who subtly threaten those who question them.

In 2015 Deepmind's Alpha Go beat one of the top Go players -the program could learn how to play go without help. So we are now 8 years later and the rate of advance has gone near vertical and we should be worried. One of the things that came out of the Go experiment was that Alpha Go made moves that Go players didn't think were winning plays but they were and they had to rethink the way they viewed the game. This is great for helping solving problems but AI can move in ways we cannot predict and its yet another point in human development we have to pass to survive (other tests being not killing the planet, being able to handle the Internet without creating warring closed minded ideologies.

The most important part of a AI system is a way for humans to "pull the plug" if necessary.

In min 2:00 was said, answering, a: "Yes" with a huge "No" expressed with the head.

Don't be greedy goes along perfect with don't be evil.

[madzen]

Like, where and how do they train their neural networks? Where do they plan on applying AI? What industries will it make obsolete? And so on. Important stuff.

[justsomeguy]

That the job of "CEO" is the first one that A.I. would logically replace?

1:58 - He shakes his head NO, but his mouth says “yes”

"The urgency to work and deploy it in a beneficial way..." even though they don't fully understand how it works. This is the fundamental problem with tech companies. Full steam ahead, regardless of the long-term consequences.

The greed of being top is pushing humanity in mouth of ai.

[randomvariety]

He's worried about Google actually having real competition now...I honestly use ChatGPT more than Google when it comes to questions

[mr.hubiverse]

Google really slept on Open AI and now they’re freaking out cuz they have to play catch up.

[cynicalPixels]

If you're so concerned, how come Geoffrey Hinton had to leave to speak out ?

[demetrakaradima]

We have to take everything in consideration and be Cautious!!!!🙏
And endure with humanity
