Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing the world in which we live from classrooms to offices and still in the battlefield. Countries like the United States, China and Russia are running to integrate AI to their terrorists. Recently, we also saw the power of machine learning on the battlefield when Ukraine used its A-Nhens drone against Russia. These drones were able to autonomously navigate and navigate striking goals while being controlled from thousands of miles away. While the AI ​​in the army is making modern war more advanced, AI’s Godfather, Jeffrey Hinton believes that military push in AI can make wars easy to start wars, not safe to fight.

In a recent interview with journalist Katie Cortic, Hinton warned that deadly autonomous weapons, often described as killer robots, are one of the most dangerous applications of AI technology. He said, “Deadly autonomous weapons are the weapons that decide who they kill or kill mam, there is a big advantage if a rich country wants to attack a poor country,” he said.

Hinton said that the danger of deploying advanced AI on the battlefield lies in reducing human and political costs of struggle. He said, “The thing to stop the rich countries attacking poor countries is that their citizens are coming back to the body’s bags,” he said. “If you have deadly autonomous weapons, instead of returning to the dead people, you are coming back to the dead robots. It will only be great for military complexes because they will be expensive to change.”

He also said that the countries are already using AI to reopen the war. Only hundreds of dollars are capable of destroying multimilian-dollars tank costing multimilian-dollars, and traditional fighter jets with human pilots are looking old. He said, “Fighter jets with those people are now a foolish idea. If you can do AI in them, AIS can withstand a huge speed, and you don’t have to worry so much about the loss of life,” he said.

What his comments said by Elon Musk a few months ago resonates when he argued that the drone would be a future of war and not expensive fighters and bomber jets, who currently serve as the main striking force in the army. Musk recently said, “The price of Chinese drones such as DJI or military models is a thousandth of F -35, but can destroy one in seconds.”

According to Hinton, the use of advanced technology in wars cannot reduce the number of casualties, but encourages military courageous. He notes that when soldiers’ lives have traditionally been a limited factor for governments, AI-powered machines can remove that preventive, while pushing arms manufacturers to introduce more powerful weapons. “It would only be great for military-industrial complex because they would be expensive to change,” they commented.

AI vs man makes for a risky future

While the risks of AI’s warfare are worrying, Hinton also talked about other long -term hazards. He said that most experts now believe that AI can cross human intelligence within 5 to 20 years and if the machines become uncontrollable then an existential risk can be created. “We know very few examples of smart things controlled by less smart things,” he warned.

Hinton also stated that the AI’s short term threats are already evident, for the manufacture of dangerous viruses and hyper-ethics fake videos from the cyber attack operated by machine learning.

And of course, job loss is one of the major fears around AI. Even Hinton believes that AI can destabilize economies by displacing workers. He predicted that call centers rolls, paralyzed research and routine programming are among the first jobs, while more complex or creative roles may last long. “When a person can work for five people, it should mean more for everyone,” he said. “But the owners of the system we have received, who introduce AI, are going to be rich and unemployed people are going to be poor.”

In particular, this is not the first time Hinton has talked about the dangers of AI. After leaving Google in 2023, he is talking a lot about AI’s potential risks and repeatedly called for global cooperation. He has also used metaphors to describe AI. At one point, he compared AI to a tiger cub, when there was no small danger, but in some dangerous it is lucky to grow. He once suggested that to prevent AI from harming humans, developers should train it with “maternal instinct”, so that it considers humans as their children and reduces the chances of harming losses.
