for lapse to go to new zealander held on for the when his 2nd in a row with teammates, sam bird coming home in 2nd place. you are watching dw news from berlin, coming up. as artificial intelligence becomes smarter, there are growing fears that technology could become too powerful. that's next in our tech show shift after the break. i'll be back with more news in 45 minutes. in the meantime, there is always our website, d, w dot com. see ah, guardians, of truth, my name is john dinner. and i have paid almost every price of being a journalist in a country like turkey. taking all the powers that be they risk everything.
4:16 pm
john, don't dar? asks activists, journalists and politicians living in exile too much on my shoulders. but i have to hold this weight because i'm responsible for the future fall country for the people who are behind the bus. they live for their mission. people need to know what is happening in our series guardians of truth watch now, on youtube, d. w, documentary artificial intelligence is constantly making our lives asia chat, j pe, tate can write us essays within seconds. siri helps us organize our lives and algorithms. hand feed us personalized content on social media from 8, that's any kind of food point. but along with these impressive advancements comes the concerned that these machines are getting too powerful. so where is i taking us?
4:17 pm
the potential risks and future of artificial intelligence? that's our topic on shift. ah, there are 2 types of artificial intelligence. there's the i from sy fi movies where machines are able to pass off as human. and there's the, i, which we actually use right now in everyday life. and it can do more than sort data analyze patterns and automate processes. for example, chat j, p t, which is the talk of the tech world at the moment. if you haven't used it yet, give it a whirl. and while it's doing some really incredible stuff, it's also making mistakes. plus there are concerns that this type of a i technology could be abused. chat t p t can do anything from draft emails. to brainstorm answers to questions on a job application. the i bought has even passed the u. s. medical licensing exam, g p t for the newest model developed by open a i can do even more. the
4:18 pm
a i bought is capable of tackling more complex task like doing your taxes. not only can g p t for process text, it can also work with images fitting the ai, a photo of the contents of your fridge, for example, will enable it to suggest a recipe for dinner. you can also sketch a website mockup and g p t for will transform your drying into working code. but there's a flip side bots like chat, g p, t make things up at times. it's a phenomenon called data hallucination. sometimes when a i bats don't know an answer, though, referred to person's figures or studies that don't actually exist. air chat bats, learn a lot from the internet. the consequence is they can be prone to reproduce in hate, speech and racist or sexist stereotypes. ernie bad from chinese tech giant by do for instance, was reluctant to answer questions and chinese president chin ping, where the country's covet 19 policy in its 1st public tests in march.
4:19 pm
there's no doubt about it. a i bats can be manipulated and misused. they can be programmed to avoid certain topics or to spread fake news. and authoritarian regimes could use bats as tools to influence public opinion. as you can see, i can be problematic and the tech world is developing at a rapid pace check out these photos. it's the pope sporting a white puffy jacket, they look pretty real, but they're not. they were created with an eye image generator and posted on twitter examples like this show just how easy it is to produce fake and misleading images. there's been talk about mass producing misinformation online, which is currently mainly done, you know, manually in the sense that there is a large number. so people in so cultural factories that produce misinformation and
4:20 pm
intervene in online conversations on social media and elsewhere. i'm this, if this can be and when this can be automated on a massive scale, then of course there's this kind of an whole new level of concern. not exactly what we want from ai. more makers are struggling to keep up with the rapid developments . regulation is a must even some developers, a calling for it. and the european commission is now proposing a legal framework to tackle the risks of ai ah, the european commission wants to take a risk based approach to ai. the framework categorizes a i systems and proposes regulations accordingly. level one is unacceptable risk all a i systems that are viewed as a threat to security, livelihood or human rights are supposed be banned. that could include anything from government, social credit systems, to toys with voice command that could lead to dangerous behavior level to as high
4:21 pm
risk. these a i systems would have to adhere to strict regulations. take, for example, scoring systems that could determine a person's access to education or a i used in robotic surgery level 3, limited risk. this level is applied to most shut bots and mixed transparency mandatory for the developers. ah, level for minimal risk. a i systems like spam filters, for example, wouldn't be regulated the art world is already reeling from advancements in artificial intelligence. text to image tools such as dolly and mid journey are generating pictures that can pass as human made photos and paintings. as artists and creatives face competition from our systems. lawsuits are already popping up very good at doing the sorts of things you might get. a graphic designer to do and the guy good at doing some fun things. the things that putting together, you know, a koala on top of a boat or things that you might, sir,
4:22 pm
have never seen before. these types of a i platforms, use images from the internet to train their systems. issues related to copyright and ownership have largely gone and addressed this is a really tricky question that there's already ongoing cases in, in a court in courts of law trying to sort of set the set the borders on the boundaries. photo agency, getty images is suing the company, stability i for using its photos to train its software. generated a i draws an example from the internet. these systems are trained with work from real artists. some feel the threat to their very livelihood. but not all experts are pessimistic, i don't think he's going to take away the job. the thought is, i don't think it's crazy. in any way. replace out is just like photography did
4:23 pm
remove painting what these programs produce may be useful for illustrating articles like, but they're not going to sleep or the way that great out speaks was that's because, unlike great art, i can only create images using existing data sets. and they systems need a lot of practice to create a good picture. the crucial question here is, is i i working for us, or is it taking work away from us? a i systems are adept at performing automated tasks, such as filtering information out of large datasets. no profession is really safe. so the moment we have in our aspect of our work that are about reproducible patterns, this part can be reproduced very easily by machines. the capabilities of a i are expanding, i systems can now produce creative content such as essays and code experts predict that going forward. many more tasks could be taken over by
4:24 pm
a i to people with actually very little skills can just by using some prompt or inserting some prompt into an interface, produce an art pictures and novels possibly videos. so it, it's also these, these creative jobs that are increasingly being threatened, i would say by automatic reproduction. but new i systems still require human oversight. standard a i tools can streamline our work, plus new jobs will emerge in this rapidly developing world of a i, for example, data detectors who check and analyze the training data for a i. systems. prompt engineers who work to improve a i tools by fine tuning and optimize and text prompts. educators who can teach the skills needed to work in a i machine learning. and of course programmers will remain in high demand. there are certainly ways in which existing jobs can benefit from ai and there's no doubt
4:25 pm
about it. these advancements are impressive, but i, i today is still no where near what some see as the ultimate goal machines that can think what humans and learn independently. this is known as artificial general intelligence. a i does anything from filter emails for spam health smartphones understand human voices or screen x rays for cancer. but most systems are only good at specific tasks. unlike humans, who have skills in a wide range of areas, human, radiologist don't just bought cancer and they also understand language. they can tell if an email's spam. they can also learn how to write a bike, play the violin, read a book, the list goes on. the idea behind artificial general intelligence or a g i is to create a computer system that can learn and perform the same vast amount of things as humans. icelandic researcher kristen thorsten is one of the people studying this
4:26 pm
type of artificial intelligence. so what does he hope to see in the future? ah, one of the main reason why i. busy chose to dedicate my professional life to a i is because i thought that i would be able to see some amazing things in my lifetime at the top of that list is realizing general machine and totes and i absolutely don't think that is impossible but own it's going more slowly than i thought just precisely where opinions diverge years philosopher, nic bostrom. it could happen surprisingly soon. i mean, that could be somebody making some breakthrough a few years from now and suddenly vol takes up. but this breakthrough hasn't happened yet, but the researchers are more cautious with their predictions. 40 to 60. yes, i'm not keen to new predictions about the us. they just extremely likely to be wrong, so far the extent to which i will change our lives is still pretty uncertain. but
4:27 pm
one thing is already perfectly clear. it will definitely be part of our future. so it's hard time we as a society address how far we want these developments to go and what we should be cautious about. the prospect of systems with human like artificial intelligence, stir or imagination. some are more excited by the potential. others are more wary. some think a i systems could become our most loyal companion and relieve us from the burden of work. but others warned that only a tiny elite could end up benefiting from the tech. and once the systems to pass our intelligence, they could turn on us. we have to ask ourselves 1st ski, do we want to live in a world where humans share they wold with entities that are not human. but that can reason better than they can and that can reinvent themselves faster than human scott. and then we have to ask, who will decide it should be
4:28 pm
a global conversation, because this is about humanity as a whole. this isn't only about societies relationship to ai. these developments can also have implications for how we, as humans interact with one another. what i'm concerned about is that some humans will be considered less human than this artificial intelligence less deserving of rights, less deserving of proper treatment. because that is a trend that you already starting to see that for example, decisions made by some artificial intelligence systems are considered more valued, more truthful. however, this plays out the battle among big tech companies is on, and they're racing to develop the best i systems. what excites you about the future of artificial intelligence. let us know on youtube or shoot us an email. thanks for watching and have a good one. ah,
4:29 pm
ah, find a psychopath or more people then you have the makings. a statistic say, you know, 12, or might be a psychopath. 40 to the answer to almost everything. next, d, w. when you work as an architect that go all in or not at all. women in architecture. why are they so invisible to the larger public? we decided to ask them, this is, what is the poetry, the secret of the house i'm housed, shattering the glass ceiling,
4:30 pm
women in architecture in 45 minutes on d. w. as you've got any issues or thoughts, they will grade. he will be with people with what comes to mind when you hear the word psychopath. serial killers from hollywood films, hannibal lecter in science at the lambs or the ciocca, disturbed and deceitful killer.
