Apocalypse from the point of view of an American expert: artificial intelligence can destroy humanity in two years

Eliezer Yudkovski, an American scientist specializing in the field of artificial intelligence, who previously raised scary scenarios about this field, now predicts that artificial intelligence can destroy humanity in the next two years.

In a new interview with the Guardian, he says that our chances for humanity to survive in the face of artificial intelligence are very small. Eliezer Yudkowsky points out that if he were to consider the possibilities, he feels that there is not much time left to save humanity and that artificial intelligence may destroy humanity within two years. "I feel like the time left for us is not 50 years, but 5 years," he explained. Maybe 2 years or 10 years."

With the advent of artificial intelligence, how much time do humans have to survive? The Guardian's Tom Lamont used phrases like "the end of all machines," "Terminator apocalypse" and "Matrix hell" to describe this.

We don't have much chance to survive with artificial intelligence!

"The problem is that people don't understand," says Eliezer Yudkowsky, founder of the Machine Intelligence Research Institute in California. "We have very little chance of keeping humanity alive."

Tom Lamont has spoken to many leading figures in the field, from Brian Merchant to Molly Crabapple. He has come to the conclusion that the emergence of a new technology, although it can be good for people, there are doubts about its goodness. These days, many analysts focus on criticizing artificial intelligence.

Eliezer Yudkovski's statements about artificial intelligence have been one of the most threatening in this field so far. Last year, an issue was raised under the title of bombing data centers to stop the rise of artificial intelligence. Yudkovsky previously said that he approves of the idea of bombing data centers. He considers this field as a threat to the future of humanity.
