‘Godfather of AI’ resigns from Google, warns of the dangers of AI

Cointelgraph| May 1, 2023

An artificial intelligence pioneer nicknamed the “Godfather of AI” has resigned from his position at Big Tech firm Google so he could speak more openly about the potential dangers of the technology.

Before resigning, Dr. Geoffrey Hinton worked at Google on machine learning algorithms for more than a decade. He reportedly earned his nickname due to his lifelong work on neural networks.

However, in a tweet on May 1, Hinton clarified that he left his position at Google “so that I could talk about the dangers of AI.”

In an interview with The New York Times, his most immediate concern with AI was its use in flooding the internet with fake photos, videos and text, to the extent that many won’t “be able to know what is true anymore.”

  1. “There is only one Power which really counts: The Power of Political Pressure. We Jews are the most powerful people on Earth, because we have this power, and we know how to apply it.”- Jewish Daily Bulletin, July 27, 1935

    Right from the horse’s mouth. All popular ideas are lauded as a boon to mankind. However, with the CBC, (Central Bank Clan), and it’s unbridled political power, these “boons” all too quickly become curses – Just as Chancellor Hitler warned about before FDR suckered the U.S. into bankrupting us financially, morally and decency to SAVE Jacob Schiff/Wall Street’s USSR while destroying Europe.

  2. Those of semiticness behind it seething with anger as AI kept picking up sub-Saharans as apes and they cannot over-ride it as the AI works on logic, evidence and reason.
