Technological and scientific advances have been historically beneficial, improving health and longevity. AI, including AGI and ASI, holds promise as a positive force for humanity, provided the technical alignment problem can be solved. The ability to ensure AIs follow instructions accurately is challenging yet essential for unlocking superhuman capabilities. Despite optimistic views, risks associated with AI remain, especially during rapid advancements. The next decade will be critical in determining the balance of benefits and costs of AI development.
Thanks to scientific progress, most people on earth live longer, healthier, and better than they did centuries or even decades ago.
I believe that AI (including AGI and ASI) can do the same and be a positive force for humanity.
Even granting these optimistic premises, AI's positive impact is not guaranteed.
In the next decade, AI progress will be extremely rapid, and such periods of sharp transition can be risky.
