- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ก.ค. 2024
- Kai-Fu Lee is one of the world’s leading Artificial Intelligence experts and a bestselling author. In conversation with Kamal Ahmed, former Editorial Director of the BBC, he discussed his new work of ‘scientific fiction’, AI 2041, co-authored with the celebrated novelist Chen Qiufan. He founded Microsoft Asia’s research lab that has trained CTOs and AI heads at Baidu, Tencent, Alibaba and Huawei. As President of Google China he helped establish the company in the Chinese market. And now, as CEO of Sinovation Ventures, he is investing in China’s high-tech sector, giving him a unique perspective on how AI is set to change our world over the next 20 years.
On September 22 Lee came to Intelligence Squared to explain how AI is at an inflection point and urged us to wake up to its radiant possibilities as well as to the existential threats it poses to life as we know it. AI 2041 offers up eye-opening scenarios of our techno-future - from a teenage girl’s rebellion when AI gets in the way of romance to a rogue quantum computer scientist’s revenge plot that imperils the world.

IQ2 need an AI to make the audio levels the same between people on video. It's really bad when one is twice a loud as the other and always makes it hard to listen to this great content.
Lee kai fu is highly intelligent and eloquent. He comes across as kind and humble as well.
This isn’t really an interview about AI. The interviewer basically just asked about regulation for an hour.
Kai has fresh insights and is not bound by ideology. There are options to limit addictive and harmful content if we exercise self-control. The individualization of content by AI can be governed by user choice like in TH-cam premium. The BigTech should not babysit users. The issue is for the consumers who want to consume free but are manipulated by commercials. What Kai proposes as governing metrics is very useful.
I'd like to offer a partial answer for why the surplus can't feed and procure for the poorest. Today's production relies on difficult or dangerous jobs that can't yet be automated at scale. Those jobs are so harsh, that if people really could live without toiling, they would stop them. And the system would collapse.
Hopefully, we will solve that eventually.
Great talk, thanks for posting.
The point about "harming us" should be more accurately put as follows: Although the primary objective of the businesses may not have been to harm us, they certainly also don't mind harming us to make money.
That, as the general rule that you state, is true in which country ?
@@erandeser5830 ANY country.
Making a powerful incentive to do good and ethical, is the best approach.
THANKS FOR A FANTASTIC INFO
If and when AI is put to the job of creating human wellbeing it will be the end of capitalism.
And it will be replaced by .....?.
@@erandeser5830 Capitalism = invention/product is owned by people who funded it(with capital i.e capitalists). We could try making it so that the people who do the invention/create the product have the rights to the invention/product. It will also be easier since it will be cheaper to fund everything.
For example, we might value the inventors of touch screen and creators of iphone(or some relevant innovation in the future) more than Steve Jobs.
@@maddoo23 not that easy: who invented fast food, supermarkets, electric cars (the first one was late 19th century), the first micro chip, nano chip, the Eiffel tower ?
@@erandeser5830 I don't get your point. They should get credit and more share if the product makes money.
The current system is not easy either and it is really hard to make accurate predictions about how a particular tech or tech enabler will effect the world. We can however, always try to align our incentives to our goals and values.
It is unfair to demand a complete blue print to an entire new system, we can just adjust our incentives. If we want more innovations, we should reward it better. Dennis Ritchie should have died richer than Warren Buffet.
In this case, if surplus is easier/more (with help of AI), we should try to make it so that the surplus is diverted more towards fundamental research and education (among other things, things that might come up in the process and be clear to us with more effort or results) rather than land prices and rent.
@@maddoo23 why ? Ritchie was part of a team working for Bell (if I remember well) and developed UNIX. They were not individual inventors, nor did they create a company to commercialize their invention. If a company pays a researcher and he does not invent (most) he still gets paid. If he does invent the invention belongs to the company. Sounds fair to me. Statistically most inventions are attributed to teams working for companies. What about songs ? There is the text writer , the music composer and the singer. The latter makes the money, as you well know. Why? Because he assembles it and brings it to the market. In my mind Ritchie was the writer, Woz the composer and Jobs the singer.
No one has written a book on my brain, I only lack the "Artificial" aspect.🤨
Pertinent information, thank you
china is already using AI in covid19 prevention, port management, transportation and industry. More and more ports in china are automated using AI. In industry automation is carried out using AI. China is far ahead and incorporating quantum technology will make it invincible.
Then China is a perfect example of the failure of AI
@@blackenedblue5401 typical American envy. China is streets ahead of US in AI. IF you would only follow Kai Fu Li’s lectures you wouldn’t be talking crap.
Deep learning then equals human emotional manipulation for capital gain. So we surrender meaning, purpose and the beauty of life for efficiency and profit.
I don't understand why this is so wonderful for the human species.... I prefer wrong answers, chance, change, possibilities, surprises and the natural creative process over effeiciency, rightness and gradient descent.
Give me colourful ascent and ups and downs any day
AI instead of investing in proper education ? Sounds a bad deal
My phone doesnt even work half the time. Lol
Hello,i am afjal from bangladesh
Hello Afjal from Bangladesh
Why did you turn comments off on your latest video? Censorship is never the right thing to do.
Shame about the different sound volumes
Upon the mention of Bitcoin at about 40 minutes in it is unfortunate to see Kai Fu Lee become visibly uncomfortable and then parrot very carefully Beijing’s latest opinion on crypto.
Babbage in relation to Darwinian meta physics is how modern technology manifest itself, I often wonder of a motherboard/hardware that uses a more a quantum premise
37:29 So this is already here.
I know the answer! I need to talk to Kai....
I wish that were so
a journalist interviews an entrepreneur populist... i sense a shedload of hype coming ....
Not really. Kai Fu Lee is more than an enterpreneur populist. He has made actual contributions in the field of speech recognition.
Nice try but FIRE was not discovered by accident.
Hex is gonna b proof of stake
THE FUTURE HUMAN WILL ABLE TO STAY HEALTHY THROUGH FREE WILL, "NO NEED FOR DRUGS"
AI is already around us and growing! Resistance is futile!
Warning: ai now have fan base.
👍👍👍👌👌👌✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻👏👏👏
THREE IMPORTANT NOTES:
1) THE IMPORTANCE OF LEGAL SYSTEMS: The USA's common law an optimistic, outcome-decided, empirical legal system that's economically advantageous. Europeans use a pessimistic, prediction-decided, idealistic legal system that's economically disadvantageous - the continental law is one of the worst consequences of the French revolution. In other words, the USA's legal system waits until it has the evidence that results from conflict or abuse, and the European seeks to prevent that conflict or abuse at the cost of discovery, innovation, and adaptation. The USA uses the fastest adaptive legal system in the world for science, technology, and medicine. The Europeans use the slowest. They achieved what they did after the destruction of the German intellectual system purely by wealth and prior advantage. Almost everything was then produced by the distribution of the German intellectual system to Russia and America. Instead of continuing market competition, Europe sought to divert to caretaking rather than competitive advantage, and so while self-congratulatory has been continuing its demographic and cultural suicide for the past seventy years.
2) RETRAINING IS A FALSE PROMISE: Retraining can only occur within the limits of the learning rate of the individual. This means the best we can hope for is to shuffle people from one tech displacement to another. The alternative solution is ancient and well understood - is that the use of wealth to pay people to produce commons - making the commons a Disney world like old Europe - rather than pay them for production of consumables. This is because the vast majority of commons we desire do not require much other than the same technologies we used to create the gardens, buildings, urban environments, that we did in our history. IN other words, we can pay people to produce beauty. This is the only viable economic direction. It means a vast alteration of the operations of the financial sector so that the returns on investment are restored to an equidistribution between state borrowing and private capital allocation. (Yes this is what I do for a living. ;) )
2) AI VS UTOPIA: The question of why can't we succeed at producing the utopia, is answerable. It's because we deny the cause of inequality, and the inequality of value, is that we may be abstractly valuable and equal as consumers, but that we are not abstractly valuable and equal as children, students, neighbors, soldiers, employees, citizens, sovereigns. And until we face the fact that the eugenicists were right - that the problem is reproduction rates of different classes, then we will eventually destroy the human race. This TABOO has to end.
Kai fu got lost in his own AI and deep learning
Buy a better microphone.
They are "stupid" programmers if they failed to realize what I realized the first time I signed up for a Facebook account at very beginning knowing immediately the evil this program would be used by that company and users. I have never failed to have an imagination for good & bad of new product or system because I use my brain highly educated self taught as Plato born with curiosity always asking the question "Why"?
Since you're at it, can AI somehow be used to alleviate some of the ethnic cleansing the CCP is inflicting upon Uighurs?!
Yes don’t be sinophobic
Yes, AI can finally help figure out how to ship all those religious extremists to the US so they can enjoy their freedom here. They can even buy guns here, much more efficient in promoting their freedom than knives.
@@rickmendoza3328 Hovv could you describe someone accusing someone else of being naziphobic or fascistophobic in the 30s ... other than inhumane scum of course?.
@@abumotorola9614 is america a nazi state since it has 10x as many Africans in jail than China has uyhgers
@@abumotorola9614 can you cite one Muslim country that agrees with that claim?
Mmm this propaganda is delicious! I'm too dumb to grasp the big picture so no worries comrades. Constrain your imagination and don't encourage any little Snowden counterrevolutionaries. Allow BlackRock to BuildBackBetter!
Wait on the outsiders of the black box, we are putted!n!
Horrible ideas. Social credit scores will usher in mass dystopia. Make all social media platforms abide by the first amendment in exchange for CDA 230 protection. Period.
