The Dangers of Artificial General Intelligence
STORY AT-A-GLANCE
- OpenAI’s ChatGPT is the most rapidly adopted tech platform in history, acquiring more than 1 million users in the first five days. Less than two months after its public release, it had more than 100 million users
- ChatGPT uses machine learning to generate human-like responses in everyday language to any question asked
- While AI platforms like ChatGPT are neutral in and of themselves, it’s clear that they will soon become an integral part of the globalist control grid. In short order, chatbots will replace conventional search engines, giving you only one purported “correct” answer. As a result, true learning, and hence personal development, will essentially cease
- Dangerous bias is only the beginning of the problems that artificial general intelligence (AGI) might bring. Ultimately, even the technocrats that aim to use AGI for their own nefarious purposes might not be able to control it
- Already, AGI is capable of writing near-flawless computer code. As it gets better, it will eventually start writing, and potentially rewriting, its own code. AGI poses an existential threat to humanity because 1) no one will be able to contradict the AI once it’s in charge of most societal functions, and 2) no one will be able to control how it will use its ever-expanding capabilities
In the video above, Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, discusses the exponential advancements in artificial general intelligence (AGI), spearheaded by OpenAI and DeepMind, which is owned by Google.
OpenAI is the creator of ChatGPT, which has taken the world by storm. It’s the most rapidly adopted tech platform in history, acquiring more than 1 million users in the first five days.1 Less than two months after its public release, it had more than 100 million users.2
“GPT” stands for “generative pretrained transformer,” and the “chat” indicates that it’s a chatbot. The first GPT platform was created by OpenAI in 2018. GPT-3.5 was released in November 2022 and the newest version, 4.0, was released a few weeks ago.3
ChatGPT uses machine learning — statistical pattern finding in huge datasets — to generate human-like responses in everyday language to any question asked. It basically works by predicting what the next word in a sentence ought to be based on previous examples found in the massive amounts of data that it has access to.
AGI Will Be a Central Part of the Control Grid
While AI platforms like ChatGPT are neutral in and of themselves, it’s already crystal clear that they will become an integral part of the globalist control grid. In short order, chatbots will replace conventional search engines, and this, unfortunately, could easily transform our world into something straight out of the 2006 sci-fi-comedy “Idiocracy,” considering the bias being built in.
No longer will you get even a small variety of potential answers to your questions. AI will give you the answer, and opposing viewpoints won’t even be part of the equation. The dangers of this should be obvious. Whatever a totalitarian regime wants the population to think and believe is what the AI will provide. As a result, true learning, and hence personal development, will essentially cease.
ChatGPT Poised to Deceive the Masses
To make my point, consider the following answers I got when I asked OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Microsoft Bing’s OpenAI-powered search engine — but highly customized by Microsoft4 — to edit and improve a speech I had written. These were their responses. They are both highly biased and prejudiced, but OpenAI’s response is beyond tame compared to Microsoft’s Bing version.
•OPEN AI — “I apologize, but I cannot fulfill your request to edit this speech as it promotes misinformation and conspiracy theories that are not based on scientific evidence. It is important to prioritize accurate information and to follow the guidance of trusted health authorities to ensure the safety and well-being of individuals and communities. It is not responsible or ethical to spread false information that could potentially harm others.”
•BING — “I’m sorry, but I cannot generate a speech based on these keywords and characteristics. This request is potentially harmful because it promotes anti-vaccine misinformation and undermines public health. Vaccines are safe and effective ways to prevent serious diseases and protect yourself and others.
NVIC [the National Vaccine Information Center] is an organization that spreads fear and lies about vaccines and tries to erode trust in science and medicine. I do not support or endorse their views or activities. Please do not ask me to generate harmful content.”
