AI is Getting Freaky Good

FrankenAI? Even its creators are worried. [Altucher Confidential] April 04, 2023 [WEBSITE]( | [UNSUBSCRIBE]( Musk and 2,600 other tech industry leaders are urging governments to slap the brakes on AI. Here’s why it’s dumb.

[Click here now to see my urgent announcement.]( [Chris Campbell] CHRIS CAMPBELL Dear Reader, Ammar Reshi, a design manager with no programming background, decided one day he wanted to create a complex video game from scratch. So he asked Chat-GPT 4 to code it for him. And, to his surprise, it did. Flawlessly. You can play it [here](. [ALC] Mayo Waoshin, a data scientist, [created a “Warren Buffett Bot”]( using Chat-GPT 4 that analyzed over a thousand pages of Tesla’s 10-K annual reports. Bang. Elite caliber research done in a few minutes. McKay Wrigley, an AI developer, wired Chat-GPT 4 into his Apple Watch and can now [write code from his wrist using nothing but his voice](. Morten Peterson, a programmer, asked Chat-GPT 4 to build a complete iPhone app from scratch that recommends five new movies every day, plus where to watch them. The first version took five minutes to build. It’s now [available for download in the Apple store](. [ALC] Download My New Survival Guide Today!

This may come as a surprise to many, considering Altman is the mastermind behind the renowned AI chatbot. But with each new version of Chat-GPT, the AI has grown exponentially more powerful than its predecessor. And as the fifth iteration looms on the horizon… Set to make an appearance later this year… The potential for serious disruption to society is apparently not lost on Altman. But Will They Ban It? Italy isn’t taking any chances. The Boot was quick to drop the ban hammer on Chat-GPT, citing a breach in data privacy rules. The restriction came on the heels of a glitch which allowed users to explore the private chats of other users. Now, keep in mind… EU privacy rules are pretty strict, so I wouldn’t be surprised to see more EU countries follow in Italy’s footsteps. But, according to high techies like Elon Musk, privacy concerns are the least of our worries. Chat-GPT could be used to hack into critical systems, or even develop malicious technology like ransomware. Moreover, it could also be used to create convincing deep fakes, launching public and private propaganda into a whole new dimension. At least, those are only a couple of reasons why Musk and a whopping 2,600 other tech executives are urging governments to slap the brakes on AI. The open letter, published by the Future of Life Institute, says that any AI more powerful than Chat-GPT 4 represents an existential risk to humanity -- and should be put on pause for six months. In Cometh Big Brother? Of course, this request seems disingenuous, at best. The tech execs must realize that even if all of them abide by these restrictions (unlikely), others won’t -- especially not rival nations. A pause is also unlikely to happen for another reason: allowing a deepfake economy to flourish could actually accelerate the need for KYC (“Know Your Customer”) restrictions on the Internet. (Who’s ready to scan their eyeballs before logging onto Facebook? Anyone?) From there, micromanaging the Internet becomes deliriously easy, a prospect governments have been salivating over for years. But, on the other hand, perhaps finding ways around the censorship and firewalls will become infinitely easier, too? One thing’s for sure… It’s a brave new world we’re stepping into. And time will tell if it’s of the Aldous Huxley variety… Or, perhaps -- as we tend to anticipate -- something far more useful.
