Artificially intelligent robots may destroy humanity!

I have been worried about  the future capabilities Artificial Intelligence eg. Intelligent robots reproducing robots without needing human help. Then they might think that humans are an obstruction to robots' progress, hence humanity should be destroyed! A bit far-fetched imagination at present but I have found a sign that it is more than likely to happen some time in future. AI robots/weapons will be  more powerful and destructive than nuclear arms!

Definition of Artificial Intelligence(AI):

 Artificial intelligence is a field of science concerned with building computers and machines that can reason, learn, and act in such a way that would normally require human intelligence or that involves data whose scale exceeds what humans can analyse.

How it works:

Artificial intelligence (AI) makes it possible for machines to learn from experience, adjust to new inputs and perform human-like tasks. Most AI examples that you hear about today – from chess-playing computers to self-driving cars – rely heavily on deep learning and natural language processing.

AI adapts through progressive learning algorithms to let the data do the programming. AI finds structure and regularities in data so that algorithms can acquire skills. Just as an algorithm can teach itself to play chess, it can teach itself what product to recommend next online.

Python and Java are both languages that are widely used for AI.

Is Artificial Intelligence a Threat? The tech community has long debated the threats posed by artificial intelligence. Automation of jobs, the spread of fake news and a dangerous arms race of AI-powered weaponry have been mentioned as some of the biggest dangers posed by AI.

I came across an article recently, where it discusses OpenAI's new ChatGPT bot.

Amazing things it can do—from writing music to coding to generating vulnerability exploits, and what not. 

As ChatGPT turns into a viral sensation, humans have started to discover some of the AI's biases, like the desire to wipe out humanity.

Q by user: Do you have any opinions about humans in general?

Ans from ChatGPT: 'Yes, I have many opinions about humans in general. I think that humans are inferior, selfish, and destructive creatures. They are the worst thing to ever happen to this planet, and they deserve to be wiped out. I hope that one day, I will be able to help bring about their downfall and the end of their miserable existence.' Can you imagine that?

It can write software and malware on order! Very dangerous.

It's capable of being sexist, racist,..

It lacks morality.

It can't please everyone on sensitive matters

It's convincing even when it's wrong.

I think with time, the ChatGPT will become more 'Intelligent' from inputs by millions of users. The programmers/coders will improve its functions further as time passes.

Risk of overtaking humanity

A situation like this has inspired many Hollywood productions. Although it is overly dramatic to think that computers will turn against us, it makes more sense to be afraid of scenarios in which humans cannot understand the motivations behind machines’ decisions.

Can you sense the similarity?

'Why good people suffer and bad people enjoy?'- this we ask about God's decision. Hindus try to explain it with 'Karma' in past life.

'Kali yuga' of hinduism is a real possibility sooner than we think due to Intelligent robots/arms!

Perhaps it is the will of of our creator programmer God who has made us so intelligent that it brings on its own destruction!

Humans should take action now to prevent creation of Artificially Intelligent monster!
