I wasn’t aware Henry Kissinger (United States Secretary of State and National Security Advisor under the presidential administrations of Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford) was still alive. At 98 years old, he seems to be still going strong.
This Time article Henry Kissinger’s Last Crusade: Stopping Dangerous AI is interesting. However, I am an AGI (artificial general intelligence) skeptic. I believe that the fears around AGI taking over the world are unfounded, as this article explains Where AI and organisms differ and what it means for AGI. But I do believe we are entering a new period of human consciousness.
We are moving into a new period of human consciousness which we don’t yet fully understand.
When we say a new period of human consciousness, we mean that the perception of the world will be different, at least as different as between the age of enlightenment and the medieval period, when the Western world moved from a religious perception of the world to a perception of the world on the basis of reason, slowly. This will be faster.
