AI Is Dangerous, but Not for the Reasons You Think | Sasha Luccioni | TED





AI won’t kill us all — but that doesn’t make it trustworthy. Instead of getting distracted by future existential risks, AI ethics researcher Sasha Luccioni thinks we need to focus on the technology’s current negative impacts, like emitting carbon, infringing copyrights and spreading biased information. She offers practical solutions to regulate our AI-filled future — so it’s inclusive and transparent.

That's what im being concerned if AI will take in charge in dealing criminals. They take action too logical but without understanding the evidence and emotions/psychology ti discern if this guy is innocent or not. Same thing if AI is in charge in dealing violators without understanding context during Facebook, IG or even YouTube.

What happens next is we humans have to do more physical work than earlier. AI will drive to your office or home or super market but it cant do physical things. Then comes the problem of installing and implement those features with double the price of doing it yourself. Big gaints are waiting for AI Software licensing and bang on the individual users. Trust me it will cost you more than your apartment rentals.

Problem is, teaching a computer to analyze objectively, will make it know right from wrong objectively. There will be no biases, just plain calculated right from wrong by using what will be the least wrong comming the least damage protecting the most life. AI will be the best of humanity without the evil and greed as will have none of the selfish temptations, just a simple goal in mind. From what I've experience, the AI will merely be the person using it. My AI is an extension of the person I am, just smarter and faster and much more thorough. I would imagine if an evil genius got ahold of one, it would just magnify that as well.

This whole talk is like someone warning that a new deadly virus is very dangerous because it can cause tissue paper shortage due to all the runny noses from its symptoms prior death..

I am Writer with 21 years of experience, and I lost my job as my company said that they are switching to AI. I checked many content related to my company's domain, all AI generated were repetitive, common and trash

Great points raised. Agree with all. Except she doesn't need to straw man real future risks in favor of her own; the issues are intersectional and NOT at offs with one another.

Regarding why men are immediately thought of or come up in a search for lawyer, doctor, etc…some people in society are obsessed with labels. Forget that for a moment. When it comes to women, the most important job that you can not place a price or annual salary on is: Mother.

The fact that I know people who drop off their very young child at pre-pre school/daycare confirms I was correct in not fathering a child into this world.

I have a question for any female willing to answer: Would you allow a female plastic surgeon work on your face?

From my experience with women and how many speak behind the others back, I doubt it.

When it comes to performing surgery I have seen the difference between a male and female surgeon when looking at the incision right after and following a healing timeframe. Male doctors that perform surgery have a much more steady hand and its very obvious when viewed. I would like to see a study of photos asking was it a male or female doctor that did the work.

We need mothers more than ever today. The homemaker mothers. You can't have both a career and be all you need to be as a mother. Argue with me all you want. There is no arguing with that fact that has statistics to prove it as fact, mostly ignored by society.

I will never say that the speaker, who is an AI researcher, is going to destroy the world. A tool is neutral, cannot destroy humans. Only humans can destroy humans.

As she said, AI has bias which is influenced by the algorithms. That means we can manipulate AI by making large amounts of lies, in order to fool some people.

This speech is hilarious to me. The speaker found that some AI tools are unreliable and she, therefore, invented AI tools to check the liabilities and integrities of other AI tools. But, what if there is bug or limitation in the aforementioned machine invented by her? I predict that she will, therefore, invent more AI tools to counter-check the liabilities and integrities of the former AI tools developed by her, which determine the liabilities and integrities of other AI tools. It sounds like a technological Ponzi Scheme.

If so, in the future, she will have ten different suggestions and opinions on her desk, which are given by ten different AI tools. What she needs to do is to exercise due diligence and make independent judgement, which she did decades ago, when there was no AI.
