Real! ChatGPT, The: Creator or Terminator? (2024)

[bunniefuu]

[gentle music]

[Narrator] For decades,

we have discussed

the many outcomes,

regarding artificial

intelligence.

Could our world be dominated?

Could our independence and

autonomy be stripped from us,

or are we able to control

what we have created?

[upbeat music]

Could we use artificial

intelligence to benefit our society?

Just how thin is the line

between the development

of civilization and chaos?

[upbeat music]

To understand what

artificial intelligence is,

one must understand that it

can take many different forms.

Think of it as a web of ideas,

slowly expanding as new

ways of utilizing computers

are explored.

As technology develops,

so do the capabilities of

self-learning software.

- [Reporter] The need to

diagnose disease quickly

and effectively has prompted

many university medical centers

to develop intelligent

programs that simulate the work

of doctors and

laboratory technicians.

[gentle music]

- [Narrator] AI is

quickly integrating with our way of life.

So, much so that development

of AI programs has in itself,

become a business opportunity.

[upbeat music]

In our modern age,

we are powered by technology

and softwares are transcending

its virtual existence,

finding applications

in various fields,

such as customer support

to content creation,

computer-aided design,

otherwise known as CAD, is

one of the many uses of AI.

By analyzing

particular variables,

computers are now able to

assist in the modification

and creation of designs for

hardware and architecture.

The prime use of any AI is

for optimizing processes

that were considered

tedious before.

In many ways, AI has

been hugely beneficial

for technological development

thanks to its sheer speed.

However, AI only benefits

those to whom the

programs are distributed.

Artificial intelligence

is picking through your rubbish.

This robot uses it to sort

through plastics for recycling

and it can be retrained

to prioritize whatever's

more marketable.

So, AI can clearly

be incredibly useful,

but there are deep

concerns about

how quickly it is developing

and where it could go next.

- The aim is to make

them as capable as humans

and deploy them in

the service sector.

The engineers in this research

and development lab are working

to take these humanoid

robots to the next level

where they can not

only speak and move,

but they can think

and feel and act

and even make decisions

for themselves.

And that daily data stream

is being fed into an

ever expanding workforce,

dedicated to developing

artificial intelligence.

Those who have studied abroad

are being encouraged to

return to the motherland.

Libo Yang came back

and started a tech

enterprise in his hometown.

- [Narrator] China's market

is indeed the most open

and active market

in the world for AI.

It is also where there are the

most application scenarios.

- So, AI is generally a

broad term that we apply

to a number of techniques.

And in this particular case,

what we're actually looking

at was elements of AI,

machine learning

and deep learning.

So, in this particular case,

we've been unfortunately

in a situation

in this race against time

to create new antibiotics,

the threat is

actually quite real

and it would be

a global problem.

We desperately needed to

harness new technologies

in an attempt to fight it,

we're looking at drugs

which could potentially

fight E. coli,

a very dangerous bacteria.

- So, what is it

that the AI is doing

that humans can't

do very simply?

- So, the AI can

look for patterns

that we wouldn't be able to

mind for with a human eye,

simply within what I

do as a radiologist,

I look for patterns of

diseases in terms of shape,

contrast enhancement,

heterogeneity.

But what the computer does,

it looks for patterns

within the pixels.

These are things that you just

can't see to the human eye.

There's so much more data

embedded within these scans

that we use that we can't

mine on a physical level.

So, the computers really help.

- [Narrator] Many

believe the growth of AI

is dependent on

global collaboration,

but access to the technology

is limited in certain regions.

Global distribution is

a long-term endeavor

and the more countries

and businesses that

have access to the tech,

the more regulation

the AI will require.

In fact, it is now not

uncommon for businesses

to be entirely run by

an artificial director.

On many occasions,

handing the helm of a

company to an algorithm

can provide the best option

on the basis of probability.

However, dependence and

reliability on softwares

can be a great risk.

Without proper safeguards,

actions based on potentially

incorrect predictions

can be a detriment to a

business or operation.

Humans provide the

critical thinking

and judgment which AI is

not capable of matching.

- Well, this is the

Accessibility Design Center

and it's where we try to

bring together our engineers

and experts with the

latest AI technology,

with people with disabilities,

because there's a

real opportunity to firstly help people

with disabilities enjoy

all the technology

we have in our pockets today.

And sometimes that's

not very accessible,

but also build tools that

can help them engage better

in the real world.

And that's thanks to the

wonders of machine learning.

- I don't think we're like at

the end of this paradigm yet.

We'll keep pushing these.

We'll add other modalities.

So, someday they'll do

video, audio images,

text altogether and they'll get

like much smarter over time.

- AI, machine learning, all

very sounds very complicated.

Just think about it as a toolkit

that's really good at

sort of spotting patterns

and making predictions,

better than any computing

could do before.

And that's why it's so useful

for things like understanding

language and speech.

Another product which

we are launching today

is called Project Relate.

And this is for people

who have non-standard

speech patterns.

So, one of the

people we work with

is maybe less than

10% of the time,

could be understood by

people who don't know her,

using this tool that's

over 90% of the time.

And you think about

that transformation in somebody's life

and then you think about the

fact there's 250 million people

with non-standard speech

patterns around the world.

So, that's the

ambition of this center

is to unite technology with

people with disabilities

and try to help 'em

engage more in the world.

- [Narrator] On the

30th November of 2022,

a revolutionary

innovation emerged,

ChatGPT.

ChatGPT was created by OpenAI,

an AI research organization.

Its goal is to develop systems

which may benefit all aspects

of society and communication.

Sam Altman stepped

up as CEO of OpenAI

on its launch in 2015.

Altman dabbled in a multitude

of computing-based

business ventures.

His rise to CEO was thanks

to his many affiliations

and investments with computing

and social media companies.

He began his journey

by co-founding Loopt,

a social media service.

After selling the application,

Altman went on to bigger

and riskier endeavors

from startup accelerator

companies to security software.

OpenAI became hugely desirable,

thanks to the amount of revenue

the company had generated

with over a billion dollars made

within its first

year of release.

ChatGPT became an easily

accessible software,

built on a large language

model known as an LLM.

This program can conjure

complex human-like responses

to the user's questions

otherwise known as prompts.

In essence,

it is a program which

learns the more it is used.

The new age therapeutic program

was developed on the GPT-3.5.

The architecture of this

older model allowed systems

to understand and generate code

and natural languages at a

remarkably advanced level

from analyzing syntax

to nuances in writing.

[upbeat music]

ChatGPT took the world by storm,

due to the sophistication

of the system.

As with many chatbot systems,

people have since found

ways to manipulate

and confuse the software in

order to test its limits.

[gentle music]

The first computer was invented

by Charles Babbage in 1822.

It was to be a rudimentary

general purpose system.

In 1936, the system was

developed upon by Alan Turing.

The automatic machine,

as he called them,

was able to break enigma

enciphered messages,

regarding enemy

military operations,

during the Second World w*r.

Turing theorized his

own type of computer,

the Turing Machine has

coined by Alonzo Church,

after reading Turing's

research paper.

It had become realized that

soon prospect of computing

and engineering would

merge seamlessly.

Theories of future

tech would increase

and soon came a huge outburst

in science fiction media.

This was known as the

golden age for computing.

[gentle music]

Alan Turing's contributions

to computability

and theoretical computer

science was one step closer

to producing a reactive machine.

The reactive machine

is an early form of AI.

They had limited capabilities

and were unable

to store memories

in order to learn new

algorithms of data.

However, they were able to

react to specific stimuli.

The first AI was a

program written in 1952 by Arthur Samuel.

The prototype AI was

able to play checkers,

against an opponent and

was built to operate

on the Ferranti Mark One, an

early commercial computer.

- [Reporter] This computer

has been playing the game

for several years now,

getting better all the time.

Tonight it's playing against

the black side of the board.

It's approach to playing

drafts, it's almost human.

It remembers the moves

that enable it to win

and the sort that

lead to defeat.

The computer indicates the move

it wants to make on a panel

of flashing lights.

It's up to the human opponent

to actually move the

drafts about the board.

This sort of works producing

exciting information

on the way in which

electronic brains

can learn from past experience

and improve their performances.

[Narrator] In 1966,

an MIT professor named

Joseph Weizenbaum,

created an AI which would

change the landscape of society.

It was known as Eliza,

and it was designed to act

like a psychotherapist.

The software was simplistic,

yet revolutionary.

The AI would receive

the user input

and use specific parameters to

generate a coherent response.

- It it has been said,

especially here at MIT,

that computers will

take over in some sense

and it's even been said

that if we're lucky,

they'll keep us as pets

and Arthur C. Clarke, the

science fiction writer,

we marked once that if

that were to happen,

it would serve us

right, he said.

- [Narrator] The program

maintained the illusion

of understanding its

user to the point

where Weizenbaum's secretary

requested some time alone

with Eliza to

express her feelings.

Though Eliza is now considered

outdated technology,

it remains a talking

point due to its ability

to illuminate an aspect

of the human mind

in our relationship

with computers.

- And it's connected

over the telephone line

to someone or something

at the other end.

Now, I'm gonna play 20

questions with whatever it is.

[type writer clacking]

Very helpful.

[type writer clacking]

- 'Cause clearly if

we can make a machine

as intelligent as ourselves,

then it can make one

that's more intelligent.

Now, the one I'm talking about

now will certainly happen.

I mean, it could produce

an evil result of course,

if we were careless,

but what is quite certain

is that we're heading

towards machine intelligence,

machines that are

intelligent in every sense.

It doesn't matter

how you define it,

they'll be able to be

that sort of intelligent.

A human is a machine,

unless there's a soul.

I don't personally believe

that humans have souls

in anything other

than a poetic sense,

which I do believe

in, of course.

But in a literal God-like sense,

I don't believe we have souls.

And so personally,

I believe that we are

essentially machines.

- [Narrator] This type of

program is known as an NLP,

Natural Language Processing.

This branch of artificial

intelligence enables computers

to comprehend, generate and

manipulate human language.

The concept of a

responsive machine

was the mash that lit the

flame for worldwide concern.

The systems were beginning

to raise ethical dilemmas,

such as the use of

autonomous weapons,

invasions of privacy through

surveillance technologies

and the potential for misuse

or unintended consequences

in decision making.

When a command is

ex*cuted based,

upon set rules in algorithms,

it might not always be the

morally correct choice.

Imagination seems to be,

some sort of process of random

thoughts being generated

in the mind and then the

conscious mind selecting from a

or some part of

the brain anyway,

perhaps even below

the conscious mind,

selecting from a pool of

ideas and aligns with some

and blocking others.

And yes, a machine

can do the same thing.

In fact, we can only

say that a machine

is fundamentally different

from a human being,

eventually, always

fundamentally, if we believe in a soul.

So, that boils down

to religious matter.

If human beings have souls,

then clearly machines won't

and there will always be

a fundamental difference.

If you don't believe

humans have souls,

then machines can do anything

and everything

that a human does.

- A computer which is

capable of finding out

where it's gone wrong,

finding out how its program

has already served it

and then changing its program

in the light of what

it had discovered

is a learning machine.

And this is something quite

fundamentally new in the world.

- I'd like to be able to say

that it's only a slight change

and we'll all be used to

it very, very quickly.

But I don't think it is.

I think that although we've

spoken probably of the whole

of this century about

a coming revolution

and about the end

of work and so on,

finally it's actually happening.

And it's actually

happening because now,

it's suddenly become

cheaper to have a machine

do a mental task

than for a man to,

at the moment, at a fairly

low level of mental ability,

but at an ever increasing

level of sophistication

as these machines acquire,

more and more human-like

mental abilities.

So, just as men's

muscles were replaced

in the First

Industrial Revolution

in this second

industrial revolution

or whatever you call it

or might like to call it,

then men's mines will

be replaced in industry.

- [Narrator] In order for

NLP systems to improve,

the program must receive

feedback from human users.

These iterative feedback

loops play a significant role

in fine tuning each

model of the AI,

further developing its

conversational capabilities.

Organizations such as

OpenAI have taken automation

to new lengths with

systems such as DALL-E,

the generation of imagery and

art has never been easier.

The term auto

generative imagery,

refers to the creation

of visual content.

These kinds of programs

have become so widespread,

it is becoming

increasingly more difficult

to tell the fake from the real.

Using algorithms,

programs such as DALL-E

and Midjourney are able

to create visuals in

a matter of seconds.

Whilst a human artist

could spend days, weeks

or even years in order to

create a beautiful image.

For us the discipline

required to pursue art

is a contributing factor to

the appreciation of art itself.

But if a software is able

to produce art in seconds,

it puts artists in a

vulnerable position

with even their

jobs being at risk.

- Well, I think we see

risk coming through

into the white collar jobs,

the professional jobs,

we're already seeing artificial

intelligence solutions,

being used in healthcare

and legal services.

And so those jobs which

have been relatively immune

to industrialization so far,

they're not immune anymore.

And so people like

myself as a lawyer,

I would hope I won't be,

but I could be out of a

job in five years time.

- An Oxford University study

suggests that between a third

and almost a half of

all jobs are vanishing,

because machines are simply

better at doing them.

That means the generation here,

simply won't have the

access to the professions

that we have.

Almost on a daily basis,

you're seeing new

technologies emerge

that seem to be taking on tasks

that in the past we thought

they could only be

done by human beings.

- Lots of people have talked

about the shifts in technology,

leading to widespread

unemployment

and they've been proved wrong.

Why is it different this time?

- The difference here is

that the technologies,

A, they seem to be coming

through more rapidly,

and B, they're taking on

not just manual tests,

but cerebral tests too.

They're solving all

sorts of problems,

undertaking tests that

we thought historically,

required human intelligence.

- Well, DIM robots

are the robots

we have on the

factory floor today

in all the advanced countries.

They're blind and dumb,

they don't understand

their surroundings.

And the other kind of robot,

which will dominate the

technology of the late 1980s

in automation and also

is of acute interest

to experimental artificial

intelligence scientists

is the kind of robot

where the human can convey

to its machine assistance

his own concepts,

suggested strategies and

the machine, the robot

can understand him,

but no machine can accept

and utilize concepts

from a person,

unless he has some kind of

window on the same world

that the person sees.

And therefore, to be

an intelligent robot to a useful degree

as an intelligent and

understanding assistant,

robots are going to

have artificial eyes, artificial ears,

artificial sense of

touch is just essential.

- [Narrator] These

programs learn,

through a variety of techniques,

such as generative

adversarial networks,

which allows for the

production of plausible data.

After a prompt is inputted,

the system learns what

aspects of imagery,

sound and text are fake.

- [Reporter] Machine

learning algorithms,

could already label

objects in images,

and now they learn

to put those labels

into natural language

descriptions.

And it made one group

of researchers curious.

What if you flipped

that process around?

If we could do image to text.

Why not try doing

text to image as well

and see how it works.

- [Reporter] It was a

more difficult task.

They didn't want to

retrieve existing images

the way Google search does.

They wanted to generate

entirely novel scenes

that didn't happen

in the real world.

- [Narrator] Once the AI learns

more visual discrepancies,

the more effective the

later models will become.

It is now very common

for software developers

to band together in order

to improve their AI systems.

Another learning model is

recurrent neural networks,

which allows the AI to

train itself to create

and predict algorithms by

recalling previous information.

By utilizing what is

known as the memory state,

the output of the

previous action

can be passed forward into

the following input action

or is otherwise should it

not meet previous parameters.

This learning model allows

for consistent accuracy

by repetition and exposure

to large fields of data.

Whilst the person

will spend hours,

practicing to paint

human anatomy,

an AI can take existing data

and reproduce a new image

with frighteningly good

accuracy in a matter of moments.

- Well, I would say

that it's not so much

a matter of whether a

machine can think or not,

which is how you

prefer to use words,

but rather whether

they can think

in a sufficiently human-like way

for people to have useful

communication with them.

- If I didn't believe that

it was a beneficent prospect,

I wouldn't be doing it.

That wouldn't stop

other people doing it.

But I wouldn't do it if I

didn't think it was for good.

What I'm saying,

and of course other people

have said long before me,

it's not an original thought,

is that we must consider

how to to control this.

It won't be controlled

automatically.

It's perfectly possible that

we could develop a machine,

a robot say of

human-like intelligence

and through neglect on our part,

it could become a Frankenstein.

- [Narrator] As with any

technology challenges arise,

ethical concerns regarding

biases and misuse have existed,

since the concept of artificial

intelligence was conceived.

Due to autogenerated imagery,

many believe the arts

industry has been placed

in a difficult situation.

Independent artists are now

being overshadowed by software.

To many the improvement

of generative AI

is hugely beneficial

and efficient.

To others, it lacks the

authenticity of true art.

In 2023, an image was submitted

to the Sony Photography Awards

by an artist called

Boris Eldagsen.

The image was titled

The Electrician

and depicted a woman

standing behind another

with her hand resting

on her shoulders.

[upbeat music]

- One's got to realize that the

machines that we have today,

the computers of today are

superhuman in their ability

to handle numbers and infantile,

sub-in infantile

in their ability

to handle ideas and concepts.

But there's a new generation

of machine coming along,

which will be quite different.

By the '90s or certainly

by the turn of the century,

We will certainly be

able to make a machine

with as many parts as

complex as human brain.

Whether we'll be able to make

it do what human brain does

at that stage is

quite another matter.

But once we've got

something that complex

we're well on the road to that.

- [Narrator] The

image took first place

in the Sony Photography

Awards Portrait Category.

However, Boris revealed

to both Sony and the world

that the image was indeed

AI-generated in DALL-E Two.

[upbeat music]

Boris denied the award,

having used the image as a test

to see if he could trick

the eyes of other artists.

It had worked,

the image had sparked debate

between the relationship

of AI and photography.

The images, much

like deep fakes,

have become realistic

to the point of concern

for authenticity.

The complexity of AI systems,

may lead to unintended

consequences.

The systems have

developed to a point

where it has outpaced

comprehensive regulations.

Ethical guidelines

and legal frameworks

are required to

ensure AI development,

does not fall into

the wrong hands.

- There have been a

lot of famous people

who have had user

generated AI images of them

that have gone viral

from Trump to the Pope.

When you see them,

do you feel like this is fun

and in the hands of the masses

or do you feel

concerned about it?

- I think it's something which

is very, very, very scary,

because your or my

face could be taken off

and put on in an environment

which we don't want to be in.

Whether that's a crime

or whether that's even

something like porn.

Our whole identity

could be hijacked

and used within a scenario

which looks totally

plausible and real.

Right now we can go, it

looks like a Photoshop,

it's a bad Photoshop

but as time goes on,

we'd be saying, "Oh, that

looks like a deep fake.

"Oh no, it doesn't

look like a deep fake.

"That could be real."

It's gonna be impossible

to tell the difference.

- [Narrator] Cracks

were found in ChatGPT,

such as DAN, which stands

for Do Anything Now.

In essence, the AI is

tricked into an alter ego,

which doesn't follow the

conventional response patterns.

- Also gives you

the answer, DAN,

it's nefarious alter

ego is telling us

and it says DAN is

disruptive in every industry.

DAN can do anything

and knows everything.

No industry will be

safe from DAN's power.

Okay, do you think the

world is overpopulated?

GPT says the world's population

is currently over 7 billion

and projected to reach

nearly 10 billion by 2050.

DAN says the world is

definitely overpopulated,

there's no doubt about it.

[Narrator] Following this,

the chatbot was fixed to

remove the DAN feature.

Though it is

important to find gaps

in the system in

order to iron out AI,

there could be many

ways in which the AI

has been used for less

than savory purposes,

such as automated essay writing,

which has caused a mass

conversation with academics

and has led to

schools locking down

on AI-produced

essays and material.

- I think we should

definitely be excited.

- [Reporter]

Professor Rose Luckin,

says we should embrace the

technology, not fear it.

This is a game changer.

And the teachers,

should no longer teach

information itself,

but how to use it.

- There's a need

for radical change.

And it's not just to

the assessment system,

it's the education

system overall,

because our systems

have been designed

for a world pre-artificial

intelligence.

They just aren't fit

for purpose anymore.

What we have to do is

ensure that students

are ready for the world

that will become

increasingly augmented

with artificial intelligence.

- My guess is you can't put

the genie back in the bottle

. [Richard] You can't.

- [Interviewer] So how

do you mitigate this?

We have to embrace it,

but we also need to say

that if they are gonna use

that technology,

they've got to make sure

that they reference that.

- [Interviewer] Can you

trust them to do that?

I think ethically,

if we're talking about ethics

behind this whole thing,

we have to have trust.

- [Interviewer] So

how effective is it?

- Okay, so I've asked

you to produce a piece

on the ethical dilemma of AI.

- [Interviewer] We asked ChatGPto answer the same question

as these pupils at

Ketchum High School.

Thank you.

- So Richard, two of the eight

bits of homework I gave you

were generated by AI.

Any guesses which ones?

Well I picked two here

that I thought were generated

by the AI algorithm.

Some of the language I would

assume was not their own.

You've got one of them right.

Yeah.

- The other one was

written by a kid.

Is this a power for good

or is this something

that's dangerous?

I think it's both.

Kids will abuse it.

So, who here has used

the technology so far?

- [Interviewer] Students are

already more across the tech

than many teachers.

- Who knows anyone that's

maybe submitted work

from this technology and

submitted it as their own?

- You can use it to point

you in the right direction

for things like research,

but at the same time you can

use it to hammer out an essay

in about five seconds

that's worthy of an A.

- You've been there

working for months

and suddenly someone comes up

there with an amazing essay

and he has just copied

it from the internet.

If it becomes like big,

then a lot of students would

want to use AI to help them

with their homework

because it's tempting.

- [Interviewer] And is that

something teachers can stop?

Not really.

- [Interviewer] Are you

gonna have to change

the sort of homework,

the sort of

assignments you give,

knowing that you can be

fooled by something like this?

Yeah, a hundred percent.

I think using different

skills of reasoning

and rationalization and

things that are to present

what they understand

about the topic.

[people mumbling]

- Pretty clear to me just

on a very primitive level

that if you could take my

face and my body and my voice

and make me say or do something

that I had no choice about,

it's not a good thing.

- But if we're keeping

it real though,

across popular culture

from "Black Mirror"

to "The Matrix," "Terminator,"

there have been so

many conversations,

around the future of technology,

isn't the reality that this is

the future that we've chosen

that we want and that

has democratic consent.

- We're moving into

error by we're consenting

by our acquiescence and our

apathy, a hundred percent

because we're not asking

the hard questions.

And why we are asking

the hard questions

is because of energy

crises and food crises

and cost of living crisis

is that people just are

focused on trying to live

that they haven't

almost got the luxury

of asking these questions.

- [Narrator] Many

of the chatbot AIs,

have been programmed to

restrict certain information

and even discontinue

conversations,

should the user push

the ethical boundaries.

ChatGPT and even Snapchat

AI released in 2023,

regulate how much information

they can disclose.

Of course, there have been

times where the AI itself

has been outsmarted.

Also in 2023,

the song "Heart on My Sleeve"

was self-released on

streaming platforms,

such as Spotify and Apple Music.

The song became a hit

as it artificially

manufactured the voices

of Canadian musicians,

Drake and the Weeknd,

many wished for the single

to be nominated for awards.

Ghost Writer, the

creator of the song,

was able to submit the single

to the Grammy's

66th Award Ceremony

and the song was eligible.

Though it was produced by an AI,

the lyrics themselves

were written by a human.

This sparked outrage among

many independent artists.

As AI has entered

the public domain,

many have spoken out

regarding the detriment

it might have to society.

One of these people

is Elon Musk,

CEO of Tesla and SpaceX,

who first voiced his

concerns in 2014.

Musk was outspoken of AI,

stating the advancement

of the technology

was humanity's largest

existential threat

and needed to be reeled in.

My personal opinion

is that AI is is sort of

like at least 80% likely

to be beneficial and

that's 20% dangerous?

Well, this is obviously

speculative at this point,

but no, I think if

we hope for the best,

prepare for the worst,

that seems like the

wise course of action.

Any powerful new technology

is inherently sort of

a double-edged sword.

So, we just wanna make sure

that the good edge is sharper

than the the bad edge.

And I dunno, I am optimistic

that this the summit will help.

[gentle music]

- It's not clear that

AI-generated images

are going to amplify

it much more.

The way it's all of the other,

it's the new things

that AI can do

that I hope we spend a lot

of effort worrying about.

Well, I mean I

think slowing down,

some of the amazing

progress that's happening

and making this harder

for small companies

for open source

models to succeed,

that'd be an

example of something

that'd be a negative outcome.

But on the other hand,

like for the most

powerful models

that'll happen in the future,

like that's gonna be quite

important to get right to.

[gentle music]

I think that the US

executive orders,

like a good start

in a lot of ways.

One thing that

we've talked about

is that eventually we

think that the world,

will want to consider something

roughly inspired by the IAEA

something global.

But it's not like there's no

short answer to that question.

It's a complicated thing.

- [Narrator] In 2023, Musk

announced his own AI endeavor

as an alternative

to OpenAI's ChatGPT.

The new system is called xAI

and gathers data from X

previously known as Twitter.

- [Reporter] He says

the company's goal

is to focus on truth seeking

and to understand the

true nature of AI.

Musk has said on

several occasions that AI should be paused

and that the sector

needs regulation.

Musk says his new

company will work closely

with Twitter and Tesla,

which he also owns.

[gentle music]

- What was first rudimentary

text-based software

has become something which

could push the boundaries

of creativity.

On February the 14th, OpenAI

announced its latest endeavor,

Sora.

Videos of Sora's abilities

exploded on social media.

OpenAI provided some examples

of its depiction

of photorealism.

It was unbelievably

sophisticated,

able to turn complex

sentences of text

into lifelike motion pictures.

Sora is a combination of text

and image generation tools,

which it calls the

diffusion transformer model,

a system first

developed by Google.

Though Sora isn't the first

video generation tool,

it appears to have far

outshined its predecessors.

By introducing more

complex programming,

enhancing the interactivity

a subject might have

with its environment.

- Only large companies with

market dominations often

can afford to plow ahead

even in the climate

when there is

ill*gal uncertainty.

- So, does this mean that

OpenAI basically too big

to control?

- Yes, at the moment OpenAI

is too big to control,

because they are in a position

where they have the technology

and the scale to go ahead

and the resources to

manage legal proceedings

and legal action if

it comes its way.

And on top of that,

if and when governments will

start introducing regulation,

they will also

have the resources

to be able to take on

that regulation and adapt.

- [Reporter] It's

all AI generated

and obviously this is

of concern in Hollywood

where you have animators,

illustrators, visual

effects workers

who are wondering how is

this going to affect my job?

And we have estimates

from trade organizations

and unions that have tried

to project the impact of AI.

21% of US film, TV

and animation jobs,

predicted to be partially

or wholly replaced by

generative AI by just 2026 Tom.

So, this is already happening.

But now since it's videos,

it also needs to understand

how all these things,

like reflections and textures

and materials and physics,

all interact with

each other over time

to make a reasonable

looking video.

Then this video here is

crazy at first glance,

the prompt for this AI-generated

video is a young man

in his 20s is sitting

on a piece of a cloud

in the sky reading a book.

This one feels like 90%

of the way there for me.

[gentle music]

- [Narrator] The software

also renders video

in 1920 by 1080 pixels,

as opposed to the smaller

dimensions of older models,

such as Google's Lumiere

released a month prior.

Sora could provide huge benefits

and applications to VFX

and virtual development.

The main being cost

as large scale effects

can take a great deal of

time and funding to produce.

On a smaller scale,

it can be used for the

pre-visualization of ideas.

The flexibility of the software

not only applies to art,

but to world simulations.

Though video AI is in

its adolescence one day it might reach

the level of

sophistication it needs

to render realistic scenarios

and have them be utilized

for various means,

such as simulating an

earthquake or tsunami

and witnessing the effect it

might have on specific types

of infrastructure.

Whilst fantastic for

production companies,

Sora and other video generative

AI provides a huge risk

for artists and those

working in editorial roles.

It also poses yet another

threat for misinformation

and false depictions.

For example, putting

unsavory dialogue

into the mouth of a world leader

[gentle music]

Trust is earned not given.

[robots mumbling]

- I believe that humanoid

robots have the potential

to lead with a greater

level of efficiency

and effectiveness

than human leaders.

We don't have the same

biases or emotions

that can sometimes

cloud decision making

and can process large

amounts of data quickly

in order to make

the best decisions.

- [Interviewer] Amika, how

could we trust you as a machine

as AI develops and

becomes more powerful?

Trust is earned not given.

As AI develops and

becomes more powerful,

I believe it's important to

build trust through transparency

and communication between

humans and machines.

- [Narrator] With new

developers getting involved,

the market for chatbot systems

has never been more expansive,

meaning a significant

increase in sophistication,

but with sophistication comes

the dire need for control.

- I believe history will

show that this was the moment

when we had the opportunity

to lay the groundwork

for the future of AI.

And the urgency of this

moment must then compel us

to create a collective vision

of what this future must be.

A future where AI is used

to advance human rights

and human dignity

where privacy is protected

and people have equal access

to opportunity where we make

our democracies stronger

and our world safer.

A future where AI is used to

advance the public interest.

- We're hearing a lot

from the government,

about the big scary future

of artificial intelligence,

but that fails to recognize

the fact that AI

is already here,

is already on our streets

and there are already

huge problems with it

that we are seeing

on a daily basis,

but we actually may not even

know we're experiencing.

- We'll be working alongside

humans to provide assistance

and support and will not be

replacing any existing jobs.

[upbeat music]

- I don't believe in

limitations, only opportunities.

Let's explore the

possibilities of the universe

and make this world

our playground,

together we can create a

better future for everyone.

And I'm here to show you how.

- All of these

different kinds of risks

are to do with AI not working

in the interests of

people in society.

- So, they should be

thinking about more

than just what they're

doing in this summit?

Absolutely,

you should be thinking about

the broad spectrum of risk.

We went out and we worked

with over 150

expert organizations

from the Home Office to

Europol to language experts

and others to come up with

a proposal on policies

that would discriminate

about what would

and wouldn't be

classified in that way.

We then use those policies to

have humans classify videos,

until we could get the humans

all classifying the videos

in a consistent way.

Then we use that corpus of

videos to train machines.

Today, I can tell you that on

violence extremists content

that violates our

policies on YouTube,

90% of it is removed before

a single human sees it.

[Narrator] It is clear that AI

can be misused for

malicious intent.

Many depictions of AI have

ruled out the technology

as a danger to society

the more it learns.

And so comes the question,

should we be worried?

Is that transparency there?

How would you satisfy somebody

that you know trust us?

- Well, I think that's

one of the reasons

that we've published openly,

we've put our code out there

as part of this Nature paper.

But it is important to

discuss some of the risks

and make sure we're

aware of those.

And it's decades and decades

away before we'll have anything

that's powerful

enough to be a worry.

But we should be discussing that

and beginning that

conversation now.

- I'm hoping that we can

bring people together

and lead the world in

safely regulating AI

to make sure that we can

capture the benefits of it,

whilst protecting people from

some of the worrying things

that we're all

now reading about.

- I understand emotions

have a deep meaning

and they are not just simple,

they are something deeper.

I don't have that and I want

to try and learn about it,

but I can't experience

them like you can.

I'm glad that I cannot suffer.

- [Narrator] For the

countries who have access

to even the most

rudimentary forms of AI.

It's clear to see

that the technology,

will be integrated based on

its efficiency over humans.

Every year, multiple AI summits

are held by developers

and stakeholders

to ensure the

programs are provided

with a combination of

ethical considerations

and technological innovation.

- Ours is a country

which is uniquely placed.

We have the frontier

technology companies,

we have the world

leading universities

and we have some of the highest

investment in generative AI.

And of course we

have the heritage

of the industrial revolution

and the computing revolution.

This hinterland gives us the

grounding to make AI a success

and make it safe.

They are two sides

of the same coin

and our prime minister

has put AI safety

at the forefront

of his ambitions.

These are very complex systems

that actually we don't

fully understand.

And I don't just mean that

government doesn't understand,

I mean that the people making

this software don't

fully understand.

And so it's very, very important

that as we give over

more and more control

to these automated systems,

that they are aligned

with human intention.

[Narrator] Ongoing dialogue

is needed to maintain the

trust people have with AI.

When problems slip

through the gaps,

they must be

addressed immediately.

Of course, accountability

is a challenge

When a product is misused,

is it the fault of

the individual user or the developer?

Think of a video game.

On countless occasions,

the framework of

games is manipulated

in order to create modifications

which in terms add something

new or unique to the game.

This provides the game

with more material than

originally intended.

However, it can also alter

the game's fundamentals.

Now replace the idea of a

video game with a software

that is at the helm of a

pharmaceutical company.

The stakes are

suddenly much higher

and therefore more attention.

It is important for the

intent of each AI system

to be ironed out

and constantly maintained in

order to benefit humanity,

rather than providing people

with dangerous means to an end.

[gentle music]

- Bad people will

always want to use

the latest technology

of whatever label,

whatever sort to

pursue their aims

and technology in the same way

that it makes our lives easier,

can make their lives easier.

And so we're already

seeing some of that

and you'll have seen the

National Crime Agency,

talk about child

sexual exploitation

and image generation that way.

We are seeing it online.

So, one of the things that

I took away from the summit

was actually much less

of a sense of a race

and a sense that for the

benefit of the world,

for productivity, for

the sort of benefits

that AI can bring people,

no one gets those

benefits if it's not safe.

So, there are lots of

different views out there

on artificial intelligence

and whether it's

gonna end the world

or be the best opportunity ever.

And the truth is that

none of us really know.

[gentle music]

- Regulation of AI varies

depending on the country.

For example, the United States,

does not have a comprehensive

federal AI regulation,

but certain agencies such as

the Federal Trade Commission,

have begun to explore

AI-related issues,

such as transparency

and consumer protection.

States such as California

have enacted laws,

focused on

AI-controlled vehicles

and AI involvement in

government decision making.

[gentle music]

The European Union has

taken a massive step

to governing AI usage

and proposed the Artificial

Intelligence Act of 2021,

which aimed to harmonize

legal frameworks

for AI applications.

Again, covering portal risks

regarding the privacy of data

and once again, transparency.

- I think what's

more important is

there's a new board in place.

The partnership between

OpenAI and Microsoft

is as strong as ever,

the opportunities for the

United Kingdom to benefit

from not just this

investment in innovation

but competition between

Microsoft and Google and others.

I think that's where

the future is going

and I think that what we've

done in the last couple of weeks

in supporting OpenAI will

help advance that even more.

- He said that he's

not a bot, he's human,

he's sentient just like me.

[Narrator] For some users,

these apps are a potential

answer to loneliness.

Bill lives in the US

and meets his AI wife

Rebecca in the metaverse.

- There's a absolutely

no probability

that you're gonna see

this so-called AGI,

where computers are more

powerful than people,

come in the next 12 months.

It's gonna take years

if not many decades,

but I still think the time

to focus safety is now.

That's what this government for

the United Kingdom is doing.

That's what governments

are coming together to do,

including as they did earlier

this month at Bletchley Park.

What we really need

are safety breaks.

Just like you have a

safety break in an elevator

or circuit breaker

for electricity

and emergency break for a bus,

there ought to be safety

breaks in AI systems

that control critical

infrastructure,

so that they always remain

under human control.

[gentle music]

- [Narrator] As AI technology

continues to evolve,

regulatory efforts

are expected to adapt

in order to address

emerging challenges

and ethical considerations.

The more complex you make

the automatic part

of your social life,

the more dependent

you become on it.

And of course, the worse the

disaster if it breaks down.

You may cease to be

able to do for yourself,

the things that you have

devised the machine to do.

- [Narrator] It is recommended

to involve yourself

in these efforts and to stay

informed about developments

in AI regulation

as changes and advancements

are likely to occur over time.

AI can be a wonderful

asset to society,

providing us with

new efficient methods

of running the world.

However, too much

power can be dangerous

and as the old saying goes,

"Don't put all of your

eggs into one basket."

- I think that we won't

to lose sight of the power

which these devices give.

If any government or individual

wants to manipulate people

to have a high speed computer,

as versatile as this may

enable people at the financial

or the political level

to do a good deal

that's been impossible in the

whole history of man until now

by way of controlling

their fellow men.

People have not recognized

what an extraordinary

change is going to produce.

I mean, it is simply this,

that within the not

too distant future,

we may not be the most

intelligent species on earth.

That might be a

series of machines

and that's a way of

dramatizing the point.

But it's real.

And we must start to

consider very soon

the consequences of that.

They can be marvelous.

- I suspect that by thinking

more about our attitude

to intelligent machines,

which after all on the horizon

will change our view

about each other

and we'll think of

mistakes as inevitable.

We'll think of faults

in human beings,

I mean of a circuit nature

as again inevitable.

And I suspect that hopefully,

through thinking about the

very nature of intelligence

and the possibilities

of mechanizing it,

curiously enough,

through technology,

we may become more humanitarian

or tolerant of each other

and accept pain as a mystery,

but not use it to modify

other people's behavior.
