Often referred to as “the godfather of AI” for his groundbreaking work that underpins many of today’s AI systems, British-born Hinton, now 75, told the New York Times that he has serious concerns about the speed at which the likes of Open AI with its ChatGPT tool, and Google with Bard, are working to develop their products, especially as it could be at the cost of safety.

So worried is Hinton that he even said that a part of him regrets his past efforts in the field of AI, the Times reported.

s the report points out, generative AI tools are already moving toward replacing human workers, and the technology can also be used for creating and spreading misinformation.

Indeed, one of Hinton’s worries is that that the internet, whose data is used to train generative AI tools, will be flooded with false information that could cause chatbots like ChatGPT and Bard to spit out endless untruths in a way that sounds believable.

As companies behind the technology release their AI-powered tools for public use without fully knowing their potential, Hinton fears that it’s “hard to see how you can prevent the bad actors from using it for bad things.”
