Η κυβέρνηση Obama ανησυχεί για την AI (τεχνητή intelligence). If it came to Skynet, it's not Skynet. However, to say that the problem is quite worrying, even without special effects.
It is known that the science is increasingly involved in the development of robotic systems. The problem lies in the subtle decisions and future risks of poorly coded units.
The Obama administration has published a report this week, which examines the problems associated with moving to an increasingly automated world.
The report tries to determine the problems that may arise with the algorithmic decision-making process that functions more and more without much (or no) human oversight. Let's look at why the Obama administration is concerned.
According to the report:
Given that services using data are increasingly ubiquitous, and as we have seen, we are increasingly dependent on them, we must deal with intentional or tacit preoccupations that may arise from both data and algorithms used, as the impact will reach the user and society.
Transparency issues arise when companies, institutions and organizations use algorithmic systems and automated procedures to inform decisions that affect our lives such as whether or not we will qualify for credit or employment opportunities or what our financial situation, housing and the ads we see.
The idea that robots can make self-awareness and annihilation of humanity may not be so much, but these systems control almost every part of our adult life.
Η πρόσβαση στην πίστωση, την απασχόληση, τη στέγαση, την εκπαίδευση, και πολλά άλλα συνήθως αντιμετωπίζεται αλγοριθμικά από προγράμματα που αναλύουν τεράστιες ποσότητες data quickly and find information about each of us on request.
These poorly coded and poorly designed algorithms, or biases could lead to inaccuracies, and Mistakes which will lead to the denial of credit, housing or even admission to certain schools.
Ο White House wants to change all that by developing an ethical framework for designing AIs that will be so precise that they can function without human intervention.
The White House report does not go into details about what it could mean with all this, but it is clear that the Obama administration is worried about the future that is increasingly based on artificial intelligence and will make decisions that can change the life of man .
