As children enter kindergarten today, it is likely that artificial intelligence (AI) will have surpassed human capabilities in all cognitive tasks. In 1999, when I first predicted that artificial general intelligence (AGI) would be achieved by 2029, many experts dismissed the idea as mere fantasy. However, recent breakthroughs in AI technology have led many to believe that AGI may become a reality even sooner than anticipated.
With over six decades of experience in the field of artificial intelligence, I am excited to see AI’s prominent role in global discussions. While the broader narrative often overlooks the significance of large language models like ChatGPT and Gemini within the larger context of AI development, these advancements are paving the way for a fundamental transformation of the physical world. Specifically, AI advancements in energy, manufacturing, and healthcare industries stand to bring about significant benefits and transformative change.
As an optimist who has witnessed AI’s potential since its inception, I am pleased to see how far we have come. However, I also recognize that with great power comes great responsibility. It is crucial that we continue to approach AI development with caution and consideration for its potential impact on society as a whole. With AGI on the horizon, it is more important than ever to ensure that our AI systems are designed with ethical principles in mind and that they are used responsibly.
