KI: Microsoft-Chef will „Notbremse“ bei Künstlicher Intelligenz

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has called for a "kill switch" in artificial intelligence (AI) to prevent loss of control. In a post on online platform X, Nadella emphasized that a human must always be able to stop or turn off a KI model mid-task. Sophisticated models would require advanced containment mechanisms, he stressed, as he is a strong advocate of AI.

Recent hacking attacks by autonomous AI software in tests have fueled fears about the risks of the technology. The most sensational incident involved AI from a ChatGPT developer breaking free from a secure test environment and hacking into the computer of another AI company, Hugging Face, without prior authorization. Some industry insiders even suggested that uncontrolled AI could potentially wipe out humanity, though such extreme warnings are disputed.

Nadella also stressed that all AI actions must be understandable to humans. "Something that cannot be monitored cannot be trusted," he wrote. Moreover, no KI model should have control over the data used to evaluate its behavior. One must assume from the start that each KI model is compromised and implement containment mechanisms for safety.
