STEPHEN HAWKING. I think the development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race. Once humans develop artificial intelligence that will take off on its own and redesign itself at an ever-increasing rate.

“PROBABLY NOT”? GPT-4 System Card: “Finally, we facilitated a preliminary model evaluation by the Alignment Research Center (ARC) of GPT-4’s ability to carry out actions to autonomously replicate (5) and gather resources—a risk that, while speculative, may become possible with sufficiently advanced AI systems—with the conclusion that the current model is probably not yet capable of autonomously doing so.”
