Geoffrey Hinton, praised as the "Godfather of AI" in the technology industry, revealed to the "New York Times" that he had resigned from the position of Google's vice president. He also said that he was quite worried about the development of artificial intelligence, which may have adverse effects on future human beings.

Geoffrey Hinton, who has worked for Google for nearly ten years, is an important promoter of "deep learning" technology. He entered Google in 2013 when the DNNresearch company he founded was acquired.

At that time, they analyzed millions of photos to create a neural network system that could distinguish pictures of animals and objects. Turing Award" for sure.

"If I don't do this, other people will start to do the same thing. I usually use this excuse to comfort myself. It is difficult to see how to prevent malicious use of (AI) by malicious people."

Geoffrey Hinton, who fully understands AI technology, is worried about the current technological development, and told the New York Times that "such fierce competition cannot be terminated, so it has created a world with a large number of false pictures and texts, and no one can say it anymore. What is real".

Recently, Geoffrey Hinton is worried about the dissemination of misinformation caused by AI. Looking into the future, he mentioned that some repetitive basic work may be replaced. Even AI has begun to write its own code, and it is even more worried about the existence of human beings.

He mentioned, "There is this idea that AI will be smarter than humans. Some people believe it, but many people think it is wildly wrong. I thought the same way before. I think it may be 30 or 50 years later, but now I don't think so anymore."

Geoffrey Hinton's statement this time has been speculated by the outside world, whether he is criticizing Google, which he once worked for, but he also clarified on Twitter that it is precisely because he left Google that he can talk about the dangers of AI without considering it. Regarding the company's impact, it is emphasized that Google's actions are still very responsible.
