There are a lot of kinds of dangers with AI. It can be used to produce disinformation and deepfakes. There are algorithmic biases, like the one I mentioned in the case of facial recognition. Hinton and others go further and say these systems could actually get out of control and destroy humanity. This claim is, to say the least, is very unlikely and speculative. If we develop a superintelligent system, I don’t believe that it wouldn’t care about our values, like killing all humans is not right. Putting all the focus on this dramatic idea of existential threats to humanity only takes the focus away from things that are really important right now. (2024) source Unverified
