Ilon Musk is known as a visionary, an inventor, a man accustomed to boldly exploring the boundaries of the unknown. The bold multimillionaire has always been considered a weakness of excessive adventurism. That's why the recent warning of Ilon Musk made millions of people think. If even an adventurer like Musk is talking about the danger, the matter definitely smells of kerosene. And, characteristically, other bright minds of our time are for the most part in solidarity with Ilon!
Ilon Musk's ominous warning
The case for artificial intelligence. Fictionists of the past were sure that the development of technology will sooner or later lead to the emergence of artificial intelligence. Of course, modern experts are not yet capable of creating a full-fledged mind based on a computer. But in the last decade alone, experts have come closer to this than in the entire second half of the last century!

Five years ago, programs like OpenAI's GPT-4 would have seemed like a miracle to most of us. Today companies all over the world are actively using GPT in their work, while at the same time demanding more and more improvements from its creators. Alas, even the famous adventurer Musk considers this approach irresponsible!
Unforeseen circumstances
Experts who create programs based on artificial intelligence are quite embarrassed by the speed at which their children develop. Now such technologies are already able to write meaningful texts, draw pictures and even quite plausibly communicate with the world around them without any human intervention.
Earlier, only science fiction writers warned mankind about the dangers of artificial intelligence. Now even quite serious scientists have become alarmed. A whole conglomerate of the brightest minds of our time has compiled an open letter of warning! The people who signed this manifesto call on the world to slow down with the development of artificial intelligence.

Experts' opinion
Among those who signed the document were Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, the "godfather" of all AI development programs Yoshua Bengio, one of the first researchers of artificial intelligence Steve Russell. The scientists were supported by the CEOs of Alphabet and Microsoft.
However, the public only became really excited when the experts were supported by Ilon Musk. The world-famous inventor made a whole speech about what uncontrolled development of artificial intelligence could threaten us. Ilon Musk's warning sounds frankly frightening!
"We cannot allow machines to flood the information space with lies and propaganda. Automating all work, including that which brings pleasure, is a mistake. Is it worth developing non-human intelligence that will eventually make us redundant? We should only work on powerful artificial intelligence systems when we are confident that we are in control of all possible risks." In my opinion, these words are worth heeding!
