Look Up Now! Riveting Film on Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Humanity (Gerd Leonhard)

LookUpNow (LuN) is a powerful 24-minute film featuring #Futurist Gerd Leonhard as host, guide and narrator, directed and co-written by Emmy-award winning producer Christopher Sean Nolan. #lookupnowthefilm
In this film, #gerdleonhard sets forth that we should embrace Artificial Intelligence and harness its positive potentials while at the same time we must urgently consider and address its negative side-effects and unintended externalities. We must use AI as a powerful tool but not let it become a purpose on its own. AI should be used to help us to bring about what Gerd calls #thegoodfuture, not to replace humans, or to whittle away what makes us human, or to enable a synthetic, machine-led society.
LuN explains why we should welcome smart machines but not seek to build generally intelligent artificial entities (AGIs) - because with digital intelligences, it’s competence that matters, not consciousness (quoting Professor Stuart Russell).

Brilliantly and expertly produced Gerd, the choices are clear. May you have influence on the decision makers across our world to bring wisdom to the surface, that creates a good future for our children’s children. Greetings from the UK

TQ Gerd for inspiring a 'protopian not utopian nor dystopian' human world & 'sound regulatory policies' to guard from misuse of revolutionary techno tools to serve a wholesome humanity ! 💫✌👣🌏

[@GerdLeonhard]

Thanks !!

[@vincentraffray6725]

Great analysis Gerd, thank you

[@GerdLeonhard]

My pleasure!

[@twitter.comelomhycy]

Seems smartly put together to explain this simply

[@GerdLeonhard]

Thanks

[@twitter.comelomhycy]

Pausing AI is difficult because we have to get the CCP on board with the USA, then they can work together to manage it, but such a scenario seems impossible . . .@@GerdLeonhard

[@ianwinckelmann7594]

This need more views 👌

[@GerdLeonhard]

Agreed

[@kultinno]

Great! AI and positive future can come together - if we choose so.

[@jpmsa]

Brilliant as usual!!!

thanks

[@janhurwitch8783]

Bravo, Gerd & Chris! Tomorrow we begin showing your film to our Spanish and Portuguese-speaking friends in LAC. Thanks for the timely subtitles! Forward with radical hope. Visionary Ethics Foundation, Costa Rica.

[@GerdLeonhard]

Please do!

[@nolanfilms]

Thx Jan!

[@pphweiss]

Great work Gerd! Wishing you and the mission all the best!

[@GerdLeonhard]

Many thanks!

Ahí cosas que no deberían inventarse una inteligencia artificial es algo que si da miedo

[@gordondeans2549]

How can we get our current legislative bodies to begin action on controlling AI before we are overwhelmed?

[@twitter.comelomhycy]

Who do you mean by 'our'? Do you include the CCP, who would be a necessary ally, or do you only consider the USA and it's allies? The gulf between the value systems between the CCP and us makes working together to pause AI development almost impossible. It's a competition at the moment sadly

[@GerdLeonhard]

I don't think so... it's difficult but not impossible. China agreed the the nuclear NPTs.

[@twitter.comelomhycy]

Let's hope for the best!@@GerdLeonhard

Is this the new face of the Ron Hubbard Church ? It’s exactly the same delivery and topics that l remember him using !

[@GerdLeonhard]

No idea what you’re trying to say - what does my film have to do with Ron Hubbard??

[@pescadito3]

La mejor asistencia humanitaria es oponerse a la guerra. No se puede ser realmente humanitario si se patrocina o está de acuerdo con el atacante.

I have to confess, my brain actually works. AI is not intelligent, is just bunch of code.

[@hermes537]

Very interesting but long winded. We live in a world with too many inputs. It's not fair to have to watch videos that are two or three times longer than required

[@GerdLeonhard]

hmmm ok....

[@CHARLYNNE123]

U been saying this 14yrs ago

[@twitter.comelomhycy]

Good point!

[@ofuturodahumanidade-cpimenta]

Congratulations Gerd, one of the best AI approaches I've seen. Instigating content in the confrontation of good and bad application of an extraordinary invention. Very well produced film too. The massification of its dissemination will be very important to put AI in our favor.

Very nice video but it doesn’t seem like humanity can possibly ‘contain’ an intelligence that’s exponentially more intelligent than us. But, in all fairness…..I am on anti depressants

AI is a good way of creating mass unemployment with machines doing everything & leaving no purpose or use for humanity
