Carlos Alvarez Pereira Talked about the Development Direction of Artificial Intelligence|Melodious Deer Chirping—CBCGDF Expert Interview (15)

BioGreen - Biodiversity Conservation and Green Development (ISSN2749-9065), China Biodiversity Conservation and Green Development Foundation (CBCGDF) organized the fifth edition of Melodious Deer Chirping—CBCGDF Expert Interview on April 26, 2024, with the theme of “Planetary Reconciliation. Time for an Earth-Humanity Coalition, in support of the UN Decade of Sciences for Sustainable Development 2024-2033）".

Prof. Carlos Alvarez Pereira, secretary general of The Club of Rome accepted the interview, talking about the development direction of artificial intelligence. His statement is summarized as follows.

If we look at the history of human literature, especially popular science fiction, we will find that many existing technologies have been imagined long ago. So I think technology is a projection that in some cases fulfills our dreams, but sometimes also fulfills our fears. In many cases, the development of technology is far from our imagination.

We have a very strange relationship with technology. Artificial intelligence is particularly tricky because it could be the thing that replaces humans. As might be expected, humans are bound to become increasingly fearful of, and even opposed to, this technology. Another way to solve this problem is to use it as a tool to expand our ability to learn, to identify. AI is more powerful than any tool before and is an excellent tool for identifying patterns in the data we have. But if we don't have the data, we don't know where to start. So we need data first. But that raises another question: How is this data obtained? What data do we collect? What data can we collect?

Today, our relationship with robots has become very tricky. We tend to think of ourselves as machines and robots that we've created. But we are not robots, and no living thing on Earth is a machine.

Therefore, the principle of life, which is partly known, partly completely unknown, and perhaps even beyond our ability to understand, is not something we have to consider mechanically. That's why I call it the "humanistic version of artificial intelligence" to help humanity deal with its own challenges.
