Beyond addressing safety and privacy issues, there’s an ongoing debate about whether advanced generative AI could pose a threat to human existence as technology continues to evolve at a rapid pace. Notably, Roman Yampolskiy, a renowned AI safety researcher and director of the Cyber Security Laboratory at the University of Louisville (whose prediction gives a 99.99999% probability that AI will eventually end humanity), has suggested that achieving Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is no longer tied to a specific timeline. Instead, he believes it’s simply a matter of who can amass enough financial resources to acquire sufficient computing power and data centers.
