Experts warn of arms race in the robot – killers. At the appeal in this case was signed by about 1,000 scientists and intellectuals, including Stephen Hawking and co-founder of Apple, Steve Wozniak.
They warn against industrial development of autonomous weapons systems – ie those which shows a series of films such as “The Terminator”. How to argue today we are getting closer to the realization of the vision of film “in a few years, not decades.” If that happens, it will be the third revolution in the armaments industry, after the invention of gunpowder and nuclear weapons.
The signatories point out that there is nothing wrong, for example in guiding missiles and drones, because in this case the final decision to take people to use. Worse of autonomous weapons, which itself eventually decides to fight and kill, which could turn against the people.
This is not the first such warning. A few months ago Stephen Hawking said that people would have no chance of thinking robots. The development of artificial intelligence in full would mean an end to mankind – said the scientist. All through that machine they would not be constrained by the same factors as people. When you create artificial intelligence, it will begin to develop itself and it is increasingly pace. Meanwhile, the people, limited slowness of evolution, they could not compete and would have been replaced – explains Professor Hawking.
The content of the letter is to be read tomorrow at an international conference on artificial intelligence in the Argentine capital, Buenos Aires. Among the signatories of the letter are Poles, including editor-in-chief of “New Fantasy”, Jerzy Rzymowski.
