The "CyberGuy" Kurt Knutsson says people should embrace but be "terrified of" ChatGPT and warns that TikTok can track people even if the app is not downloaded. As tech experts warn that the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence could threaten humanity, OpenAI's ChatGPT weighed in with its own predictions on how humanity could be wiped off the face of the Earth. Fox News Digital asked the chatbot to weigh in on the apocalypse, and it shared four possible scenarios how humanity could ultimately be wiped out. "It's important to note that predicting the end of the world is a difficult and highly speculative task, and any predictions in this regard should be viewed with skepticism," the bot responded. "However, there are several trends and potential developments that could significantly impact the trajectory of humanity and potentially contribute to its downfall."

If AI has a goal and humanity just happens to be in the way, it will destroy humanity as a matter of course without even thinking about it…It's just like, if we're building a road and an anthill just happens to be in the way, we don't hate ants, we're just building a road.

"Just as electricity transformed almost everything 100 years ago, today I actually have a hard time thinking of an industry that I don't think AI (Artificial Intelligence) will transform in the next several years." Andrew Ng. "I'm interested in things that change the world or that affect the future and wondrous, new technology where you see it, and you're like, 'Wow, how did that even happen? "The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race….It would take off on its own, and re-design itself at an ever increasing rate. Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn't compete, and would be superseded." "I don't want to really scare you, but it was alarming how many people I talked to who are highly placed people in AI who have retreats that are sort of'bug out' houses, to which they could flee if it all hits the fan." "With artificial intelligence we are summoning the demon.

Does artificial intelligence pose a major threat or are the dangers overblown? "If you're not concerned about AI safety, you should be. "I think we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. If I were to guess like what our biggest existential threat is, it's probably that. So we need to be very careful with the artificial intelligence.

The outstanding scientist and academic Stephen Hawking once said, "The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race". When such high-profile intellects discuss AI in this manner, it often sparks fear among the public and drastically influences their opinions on AI. Although Stephen Hawking's statement could to some extent be true, the human race is still so far from achieving full artificial intelligence, and not to mention if/when we do, there will be strict regulations to ensure the application of AI is safe, responsible and beneficial to us. AI is pervading our personal lives in more ways than you realise. Increasingly, people are turning to chatbots such as Siri to carry out tasks for ease and simplicity, from emailing a colleague to getting directions to the nearest petrol station.

Opinion: just what exactly is Artificial Intelligence and why is it so important? The first official use of the term Artificial Intelligence (AI) was in the proposal for the 1956 Dartmouth Summer Research Project on Artificial Intelligence. That six week workshop marked the birth of the field of study of AI and the organisers - John McCarthy, Marvin Minsky, Nathaniel Rochester and Claude Shannon - and conference attendees led the way for many years. At the beginning, the focus was on developing computational systems that had the capacity for the human abilities that are traditionally associated with intelligence. These included language use, mathematics and self-improvement on tasks through experience (learning) and planning (for example in games such as chess).

From The Terminator to Transcendence, Hollywood sci-fi films have taught us not to trust robots. Now one expert has made a prediction that's just as terrifying as the bleakest plot: that in the future, intelligent robots will be smarter and faster than humans, take over the running of countries and have the ability to wipe us out altogether. Dr Stuart Armstrong believes it's a race against time to develop safeguards around artificial intelligence research, before robots outwit us - or even accidentally cause our demise. Speaking at a debate on artificial intelligence in London, he warned that humans could be wiped out even if robots are instructed to protect people. Dr Armstrong, based at the Future of Humanity Institute at Oxford University, predicted that robots will be increasingly integral to our everyday lives, doing menial tasks, but will eventually make humans redundant and take over,The Telegraph reported.

Machines turning on their creators has been a popular theme in books and movies for decades, but very serious people are starting to take the subject very seriously. Physicist Stephen Hawking says, "the development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race." Tesla Motors and SpaceX founder Elon Musk suggests that AI is probably "our biggest existential threat." Artificial intelligence experts say there are good reasons to pay attention to the fears expressed by big minds like Hawking and Musk -- and to do something about it while there is still time. Hawking made his most recent comments at the beginning of December, in response to a question about an upgrade to the technology he uses to communicate, He relies on the device because he has amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a degenerative disease that affects his ability to move and speak.
