If you’ve seen a film from the “Terminator” franchise, “The Matrix,” or “2001: A Space Odyssey,” you might be aware of what a highly advanced rogue AI could potentially do — and you wouldn’t be alone. Key industry figures like Elon Musk have frequently warned about the dangers of AI, with the Tesla founder petitioning the UN to ban its use in war and helping fund OpenAI, a non-profit dedicated to the study of the concept.
There is also concern among non-billionaires, with 43% of SlashGear’s readers claiming that they find the prospect of a sentient AI worrying. The closest the document comes to saving us all from Skynet is a section on “safe and effective systems,” which states: “Automated systems should not be designed with an intent or reasonably foreseeable possibility of endangering your safety or the safety of your community.”
On the flip side, there’s also the question of rights for the AI itself, and the bill doesn’t address that either. In recent months, we’ve had an AI that has developed its own language, and another that was so convincingly sentient that a Google engineer got it a lawyer. Still, this blueprint isn’t law, and even if it were, sentient AI still wouldn’t have any legal rights.
