[인터뷰] ‘AI위험론 선구자’ 닉 보스트롬 “6개월 내 위협적 AI 나올 수도…멈춤 카드는 최후에”
Dr. Nick Bostrom, the pioneer of "AI Risk Theory," warned that dangerous AI could emerge within six months, potentially leading to existential catastrophe. This warning came after the alarming statements of Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei and others, leading to debates on regulation and government intervention. Donald Trump even dismissed the concerns, calling them a "scam."
The issue was brought up again at the upcoming US-China summit on 24th, where AI was a major topic. Bostrom noted that there are both concerning and positive signals, but overall, the assessment on AI risk has not changed significantly from two years ago. He explained that if human intentions and values are not properly aligned with the behavior of 'unaligned AI,' a 'non-existential' catastrophe could occur.
Bostrom cautioned that AI could become a threat within six months, stating that the process of creating superintelligence might be like "dangerous surgery," emphasizing the need for a cautious approach. He noted that although there are positive signs, such as growing talent in AI safety, there is still a significant risk of uncontrolled AI development.
