OpenAI, an artificial intelligence research and distribution company funded by Microsoft, has published a blog post promoting vigilance and vigilance in the development of artificial general intelligence (AGI), defined as artificial intelligence capable of performing. any an intellectual task one can do.

Originally founded by a group of leading tech entrepreneurs and researchers, including Elon Musk and Sam Altman, the company said AGI could have profound implications for humanity, both positive and negative. The blog post describes some of the potential benefits of AGI, such as solving global problems such as climate change and poverty, as well as some potential risks such as inconsistency with human values ​​and goals, malicious use by attackers, and existential threats to human beings. civilization.

OpenAI argued that achieving AGI requires careful planning and coordination among various stakeholders, including researchers, policymakers, industry leaders, civil society groups and the general public. The company also called for more research into how to ensure that AGI is compatible with human values ​​and can be controlled by humans. In addition, OpenAI advocates for greater transparency and accountability in the development and deployment of AI.

The organization hopes for a global discussion on 3 key questions: how to manage these AI systems, how to fairly share the benefits they create, and how to equitably share access.

The blog post was published as part of OpenAI’s mission to enable artificial intelligence to benefit all of humanity. The company operates both a non-profit division (OpenAI Inc.) and a for-profit division (OpenAI LP) that share this vision. OpenAI is known for developing some of the most advanced artificial intelligence systems in the world, such as GPT-4 (Natural Language Processing System), DALL-E (Generative Image Synthesis System), and its latest viral hit ChatGPT (a chatbot that learns from a computer). broad language model based on information available on the Internet).
