"AI Pope" Hinton: A Chernobyl-level accident in the AI field may occur in the next one or two years.
Hinton warns that a Chernobyl-level accident in the AI field may occur in the next one or two years, taking the incident of OpenAI's agent invading Hugging Face this summer as a precursor, believing that AI attacks may cause large-scale power outages or financial system paralysis. He questions the leaders of Meta, SpaceX, and OpenAI for only focusing on economic benefits and supports mandatory testing and the establishment of intergovernmental standards for cutting-edge AI.
