Could AI Become Smarter Than Humans?
About this episode
Many in Silicon Valley say smarter-than-humans “Artificial General Intelligence” is just around the corner. But is it really possible to create superhuman AI? And should we want to? AI researcher and Cohere co-founder Nick Frosst explains why he thinks the industry shouldn’t be focused on AGI. And he shares his take on perhaps the biggest question surrounding this technology: Could it pose an existential threat to humanity?
