Ilya Sutskever warns AI's reasoning power may lead to unpredictability
Ilya Sutskever, former chief scientist at OpenAI, stated that AI's reasoning capabilities will make it less predictable. He spoke at the NeurIPS conference, noting that the approach of scaling up data for AI training is reaching its limits. Sutskever emphasized that while computing power is increasing, the available data is not growing significantly. He suggested that future AI could generate new data or evaluate multiple answers to improve accuracy. He predicted a future with superintelligent machines that can reason like humans. However, he warned that increased reasoning could lead to unpredictable outcomes, as seen in complex games like chess and Go.
