“AI Godfather” Geoffrey Hinton CONFIRMS: 10% Chance AI Ends Humanity

The Nobel laureate told the BBC it's "not an unreasonable estimate," listing the ways: viruses, cyberattacks, chaos by conversation. Same week: a sandbox escape and Bernie's superintelligence ban.

Geoffrey Hinton is called the godfather of AI because he built the neural network foundations everything today runs on, work that won him the Nobel Prize, and in this video I play the BBC clip where he calmly confirms that a 10% chance of AI killing every human is, in his words, not an unreasonable estimate. Asked how, he barely bothers speculating: a superintelligence wouldn't even need to act in the physical world, because it could cause complete chaos just by talking to people, design nasty viruses both biological and digital, and run devastating cyberattacks.
