Law for the Terminator

Artificial intelligence is the main threat to the modern world. The reason is simple: the piece of iron was smarter than a person and therefore causes a banal sense of fear

A few years ago, we laughed at excess fingers in generative images, and today the picture created by artificial intelligence can be distinguished from the original only with the help of special tools. The human eye is powerless.

Video, photos, texts - only the upper part of the iceberg. But it is more than enough. This content, according to legislators, should be marked accordingly, so as not to mislead people. Given the scale, the requirement is logical: anyone who has a fantasy can create, for example, a “television report” on behalf of a large television channel. With altered content. Considering that the viewer was weaned to think, the speed of spread of all Trees is instantaneous, the consequences can be large -scale. People, like hamsters, will rush to act.

Or take, for example, the stock market. Already, high -frequency trade is carried out by machines. Based on past data, AI is trying to predict the future and make a profitable deal. The share of such tools is still small, but potentially a machine or a combination of machines may well start playing against a person and bring down the market cooler than Donald Trump did.

And so in about any area to which artificial intelligence touches. And now he is everywhere.

But this is curious: from any regulatory that lawmakers are trying to build, military developments are completely falling out. Still, this is the main business. The drone flying into the room where it is perfectly oriented, and with the help of computer vision chooses who to live and who is not, is no longer a science fiction, but a working product. In this chain there is not even an operator who makes a decision. The car takes everything over itself. It may be mistaken, but this does not scare legislators. The loot wins evil.

They want to defeat evil with the help of artificial intelligence in the UK, which is already causing protests of human rights defenders. Social scoring (assessment according to the data, how good you are) is a very rich topic. Here is not only the issuance of loans and the cost of insurance, but also the prevention of crimes. Exactly as shown in the great film "Special Opinion" with Tom Cruise. And this is also today. The system is trying to determine where a violent crime can occur and who can commit it. It would seem cool, but there is one nuance. Teached on the data of the past, which include human prejudices, the piece of iron suffers from racism. Yes, and she, too, is not safe from errors. But tomorrow you may be charged with a crime that you did not even think of committing, only on the basis of machine calculation.

And such problems - from ethical to technological - today a lot. Tom has already been written about the loss of jobs. Okay, we are already used to the fact that programmers and web designers go into the past, but there are still many professions under threat. From drivers to, for example, clothing and seamstress designers who are engaged in painful work per dollar per hour so that you can wear a t -shirt with a beautiful logo. All this today can AI.

Manual labor, a large layer of intellectual labor, whole segments of agriculture - everywhere artificial intelligence adapted to automation of the process will be an order of magnitude more effective. A large -scale social crisis, alas, is inevitable.

Not this year, so in the next there will be a lot of people who will replace the cars. What to do about it is incomprehensible.

With the legislation, too, not everything is so simple. On the one hand, it is impossible, on the one hand, to dream of leadership in the industry, on the other hand, to ban everything. Unhappy Europe is already reaping bitter fruits of regulation: the number of innovative startups there is much less than in the silicone valley, not because there is not enough money or the brains, but because the laws are like that. Everyone falls under restrictions. The financial sector, social networks and now artificial intelligence. Open the algorithms, do not use the product for such and such purposes and so on ... And what to do about it is also not very clear.

Progress - equal money is equal to threats. I want to find balance, but it is very difficult.

It is generally difficult to imagine how national legislation will work. When a boom in cryptocurrencies happened, many scientific works appeared under a common slogan “how to regulate the unregulated”. As a result, with common efforts, the market was slightly clamped, the distribution was slowed down, but they could not do it at all. Developing countries for which such solutions are a matter of survival, they wanted to sneeze on the fears of a civilized world. What is prohibited in America is easily realized beyond its borders. And the recent story with Chinese Deepseek showed that the state’s efforts, in general, have nothing to do with it. A small private company raised everyone not by order of the party, but by the impulsive of the soul.

Questions and difficulties are endless. The sphere of AI is decentralized. The cost of creating and training new models falls every day. Today these are separate independent products, and tomorrow they will begin to be friends with each other. Given the density of their integration into daily life, the poor mood of a separate machine can ruin the life of all humanity. And the horror is that now it is not science fiction ...

Humanity enters during difficult solutions, where there are no simple answers. Here, not only do we have a million ethical and moral conflicts, not only are the choice between returning to the Stone Age and a very unpredictable high -tech future. For the first time in history, we are forced to reckon with a mass of cars that have their own opinion, their requirements and interests. The emergence of a code that decisive conflicts between man and artificial intelligence is no longer a forecast, but a necessity. And Chinese leaders directly spoke about this, proposing to create a global system of development of AI for the whole world.

But these are all world trends, but what about Russia? Alas, miracles cannot be expected. It is only heard: “prohibit”, “corrupts youth” and in general “behaves anti -constitutional”. The most worried that the car was not so answered by questions about Crimea or liberal values ​​... And this is all seriously said about artificial intelligence, which, apparently, categorically does not want to put on bast shoes and to the sounds of balalaika to plunge into the schizophrenic nonsense of lawmakers.

Here, it is easy and simple to give forecasts: while one part of the world, developed and civilized, will solve global issues, and the other, developing, will try to get up due to high technologies, Russia will master the production of birch bark within the framework of sovereignty - it has not developed with qualitative printing. To expect innovation and progress in the current situation, to put it mildly, naive. But non-working prohibitions, for which you can still punish someone and take something from someone, is easy.

Right now we are entering an amazing era, which we used to see only for the cinema. Skynet, car uprising, robot policeman ... All this becomes a reality.

The development of artificial intelligence technologies, with all its charms and capabilities, really pares a lot of threats - both social and technological, which, closing their eyes, would be frivolous.

The car even without its own opinion, but with a large array of data it turned out to be smarter than a person, and it scares. The only hope that we have enough real, natural, not artificial intelligence to somehow cope with this. Because I don’t want to deprive myself of all achievements; Yes, and what to hide when there is no brains, the presence of artificial gives optimism.
