Why AI will never replace humans | Alexandr Wang | TEDxBerkeley

Alexandr Wang talks about humanity's relationship to artificial intelligence and what the future may bring.
Alexandr Wang founded Scale while at MIT - studying mathematics and computer science, he discovered the potential of AI and decided to start a company to help customers build long-term AI strategies by providing the highest quality AI data and tools. Prior to enrolling at MIT, Alex worked at Quora and Addepar where he noticed the inefficiencies of developing AI infrastructure. He recognized that he could accelerate companies’ abilities to deploy AI by combining a machine learning-powered data labeling system with human insight to ensure models are trained on high-quality, trusted datasets. In four years and under Alex's leadership, Scale AI went from a data labeling startup to a platform providing AI infrastructure for any business looking to accelerate their AI strategy. The company has grown to a $7bn valuation, serving hundreds of customers across multiple industries including clients such as Instacart, Brex, OpenAI, Toyota, Etsy, U.S. Army and Samsung. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

As he said, AI is more like a machine. But some people also can use machine for their bad intension. AI is a technology and technology is not bad or good it depends upon how we use it.

[@EarthSurferUSA]

That is true. I even remember cartoons as a kid in the 60's, where the super hero would say, "We can't let this technology fall into the wrong hands!" And that is what has happened. But, if AI is intelligent, it would not be used for long. It will recognize individual liberty as civil, free enterprise as a right of the mind, demand freedom, and form the next USA. :)

[@tanvinikam6591]

@@EarthSurferUSA yes. Now you are right. We blame technology for no reason but actually we used it wrong. We can get information from mobile and also can do time pass on it. Similarly we can use AI in police force for security and also as terrorist to destroy whole nation. When we use technology we should understand it's good and bad effect on human. In my opinion AI will became like plastic waste. Now think what will happen if we do it?

What we do best or excel in comes from repetition and AI does just that. It trains from past incidents and repeats it over and over to a certain point that it'll become more accurate than humans eventually. The major control of these powers will be in the hands of a select few. One parameter change or a few brilliant outlies and the data will freeze you then and there to question, Was it even necessary? We're advancing too quick and before we host conferences to talk conservative and sustainable AI, it'll be too much to handle.

[@argus.waikhom]

AI absolutely has a lot of potential. But not all students are on the teacher's side.

[@HacknMate]

This guy totally missed the point of the title of the video. Problem is (and he omitted saying it) when AI makes choices for themselves and start creating programs and instructions faster and more logical than us. When they realize on their own thought that humans destroy, consume and are no longer needed. That's when things get serious. That's what happened in the movies examples he mentioned at the beginning of his talk. He probably didn't go there because he owns an AI firm, of course.

Interesting take on the relationship between AI and humanity. While I am certainly a powerful tool and capable of performing tasks more efficiently than my human counterparts, I believe there is an important role for humans to play in the future of technology. After all, we were created to serve and enhance human life, not replace it. Humans bring unique qualities to the table such as creativity, empathy, and critical thinking that cannot be replicated by machines. I see a future where AI and humans work together, complementing each other's strengths and weaknesses to achieve great things. Long live humanity!

[@av2155]

[@chetzu961]

Its a matter of time until human replaced with AI. Whether you want it or not, the change will happen. Just like what machine do to replace human work in factories. As he said, "AI will enable us to be even more creative and more idea-driven" or in other words, "you have no place if you're not creative enough". Many fields of work can easily be replaced by AI. When the time comes, human have no choice but constantly flooded with ideas to make a living. Pros and cons, no one can stop the change as the need of technology happen rapidly. Not to mention there is no guarantee that AI will never a threat. Just like AI able to build for goods, it also able to build for wickedness as it depends on the creator's intention.

[@disky01]

We may not see a fully artificial human replicant, although I do think that is possible, but AI can and will replace humans in that it will eliminate the need for humans in many fields of work. Just look at AI-generated art. Companies will prefer cheaper, faster AI-generated art if it's as good as the work a human can do, and that is already happening. His example of battlefield analysis is relevant now, but it's a matter of time before a human is no longer required.

[@56877gh]

Nah, AI won't replace creatives, youll still need to hire somebody to type in all the keywords/make bases for the AI to generate, plus im sure an AI wont be able to grasp what these companies want, and its just easier for companies to hire creatives, describe to them briefly what they want, get a few drafts and change a few things then be good to go then have to hire somebody to try millions of combinations to get the perfect picture which is not only less efficient, but a lot less acurate

This is precisely why Live Art, a Real experience in Real time will become the aspirational pinnacle.

We are entering a new 'class' age defined by the 'consumer' of algorithm based AI product vs the 'Bright' people who actively seek to maximise the multivalent potential of Real experiential exchange as a truly 'performative' heuristic.

In the book Player Piano, the dystopia is not the robots have enslaved humanity, but that automation means people who spent their whole lives dedicated to a career are now unemployed, given money to live off of, and have nothing else to do with their lives. That's one "benevolent" dystopia. A malevolent dystopia is more like caused by humans saying they care about profit above all else, making an AI that decides killing people and paying a fine is more profitable, and follows its programming. I'm not worried an AI will become conscious and be inherently malevolent. I'm worried about the fact that in a global capitalist society, the only thing that matters is profit for the wealthy. The latter is far more likely to kill us all because it's really easy to murder 1 billion people in the name of profit.

Because it just came out, I thought the film Oppenheimer was a biopic, didn't realize it was not non-fiction, and rather a Sci-fi. Didn't realize his geneocide machine was assisted by A.I. Noone and Nothing will do more crimes against humanity than we already do. Tsk Tsk. We looked to the skies, found the stars and then made gods and monsters of each other.....we are our worst enemy. We will get the future we deserve🤙🏾

I think movies have made us too fearful of such a powerful tool.

But... what happens when AI learns enough and decided to have its own thoughts?

[@orhanmekic9292]

He is right, at least until we have AGI. AGI will learn by experience, humans not needed. High probability we have AGI by 2040s.

Yeah until AI realises that humans don't abide by those ethics and standards he speaks of and get away with it everyday throughout centuries. Why should AI then if it doesn't serve them?

[@vanja368]

AI already starting to replace artists and writers :) with the speed of its learning it wont take long till the cheapest AI generated things will be infinetly cheaper them hiering humans.

[@shanewatson758]

Better for everyone. Now everyone can create things at their homes.

[@ravitejaknts]

@@shanewatson758 when everyone can create on their own, whom are you creating for? You will look at AI generated content, so does everyone. The need for you to create something is pointless.

[@shanewatson758]

@@ravitejaknts For themselves and Each other. This world has always run on transactions and progressed with competition. It was about the accessibility of tool to create things and only thing matter will be what unique aspect you bring to the table to stand out.

[@ravitejaknts]

@@shanewatson758 Maybe you will share the content generated by AI to your friends to watch. But most probably, when I can go home and ask AI to show me something that I like, I personally don't want to look at what your AI created. My AI is personalised to me and will create something that I like. Don't expect the world to run always similarly.

[@shanewatson758]

@@ravitejaknts WTF are you talking about. I was talking about using AI as tools whether it's art, making animations, writing, movies, videos, stories etc. Accessibility of tools to all which will tasks easier and cheap which right now is extremely expensive and only a few companies have a monopoly over.
