Künstliche Intelligenz: „Mit 75 Prozent Wahrscheinlichkeit passiert genau das: Die Blase platzt“
Stuart Russell hat das einflussreichste KI-Lehrbuch geschrieben. Er erklärt, warum die Technologie bald auch Top-Manager ersetzen könnte – und wann sie zu einer existenziellen Bedrohung wird.
Alicia von Schenk, Germany's youngest AI professor, is debunking the biggest myths surrounding artificial intelligence. From a young age, von Schenk demonstrated exceptional aptitude; she started school at the age of four and earned a 1.0 grade point average upon completing her matriculation exams at 15. She pursued degrees in mathematics and economics at the Universities of Frankfurt and Heidelberg, earning her doctoral degree in economics with a focus on the effects of AI, receiving the highest honors.
At just 30 years old, von Schenk became a professor on a permanent basis, a rare occurrence in Germany where the average age of first-time professors is typically over 44. Currently, she leads the Chair for "Economics of AI and Human Behavior" at the Julius-Maximilians-Universität in Würzburg, one of the few academic positions in Germany with a specific emphasis on the economic and behavioral impacts of AI.
Von Schenk is often referred to as a prodigy. Yet, how did she achieve such early success, and what are her thoughts on the current AI boom?
Von Schenk emphasizes that AI is not a single entity, despite the common belief fueled by hype. Instead, she describes artificial intelligence as a broad term encompassing various technologies, ranging from simple statistical tools to sophisticated neural networks in machine learning. She criticizes the oversimplification of AI, stating, "That is too undifferentiated for me."
