Musk Discusses AI Control and the Future of Robotics

1 reports · 1 sources

In Walter Isaacson's podcast "Builders," Musk stated that humanity's desire to firmly control a superintelligence perhaps a million times smarter may be wishful thinking, and advocated that AI pursue truth and maintain curiosity to avoid logic conflicts spiraling out of control. He called AI and robotics the way out of the U.S. debt predicament, arguing that AI aimed at the physical world is one to two orders of magnitude more important than purely digital AI, and that once robots can manipulate atoms, the value of intelligence will grow exponentially. He also proposed that frontier AI companies communicate weekly and open their new models to competitors for vulnerability testing one week before release.
