In 2018, Hinton shared a Turing Award for work related to neural networks. He has been called “a godfather of AI,” in part for his fundamental research about using back-propagationto help machines learn. Hinton said he long thought that computer models weren’t as powerful as the human brain. Now, he sees artificial intelligence as a relatively immi...
Hinton’s concern with this burgeoning power centers around the alignment problem— how to ensure that AI is doing what humans want it to do. “What we want is some way of making sure that even if they’re smarter than us, they’re going to do things that are beneficial for us,” Hinton said. “But we need to try and do that in a world where there [are] b...
Hinton said he does not see any clear or straightforward solutions. “I wish I had a nice, simple solution I could push, but I don’t,” he said. “But I think it’s very important that people get together and think hard about it and see whether there is a solution.” More than 27,000 people, including several tech executives and researchers, have signed...
