The conversation between the British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and the world billionaire and founder of “Tesla” Elon Musk has attracted the attention of the whole world. Both pointed out in their conversation that artificial intelligence will become the most destructive force in human history. In a debate organized in Britain’s “Blayley” Park, Elon Musk commented that “we can build something smarter than the smartest human being today.” Today we see from experience that human IQ (intelligent quotient) is getting better as generations pass. Increasing intelligence should be used for the betterment of mankind. But if we are reminded of villain characters in romantic stories and movies, it will lead us to destruction. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Terminator — The Judgment Day movies in the Hollywood thriller series teach us the endless possibilities of human destruction.
Many other films also teach us regarding the use and misuse of scientific discoveries. We see many of the gains they made in human progress as double-edged swords. Albert Einstein, a world famous scientist, discovered and presented his famous formula E=MC2 in 1905. He himself was amazed by the energy produced by hitting the mass of an atom at twice the speed of light. In 1938, when scientists Ottohan, Lies Meitiner and Strassmann, who stopped their research work from Berlin and sought refuge in the United States, published their research paper on the splitting of the uranium atom, it was Einstein’s. He wrote a letter to US President Roosevelt in August 1939. He warned Roosevelt that nuclear fission would be extremely dangerous if used for military purposes. And Roosevelt listened.
But when Harry A. Truman became the President of the United States, he prepared the research team that might make the atomic bomb. When he was invited to join the group, Einstein rejected the invitation, realizing that it was to build a weapon that would destroy the human race. On August 6, 1945, when America dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan, what Einstein feared was happening. New inventions should be for human progress. Rather, there should not be a situation where man becomes a victim of new inventions. The development of artificial intelligence opens up endless possibilities for development in all areas of human society. But there is also the potential for abuse to be taken seriously. It can be understood from the reports that the 28 countries including India, UK, US and China who have signed the Blatchiley Declaration have expressed their agreement to create an international framework to regulate artificial intelligence. So much the better. Rishi Sunak and Elon Musk have also said that the risks arising from this technological development should be jointly managed. All this is comforting. Billionaires like Elon Musk dream of jobless economic growth. And those who caress it.
Capital forces think nothing of human progress, excluding the worker who buys and sells his own labor power in the production sector and thinks that the remuneration to be paid to them will also come into his pocket. The goal of modern capital is to maximize profit at all costs. The achievements of science and technology should benefit all mankind. The achievements of science should not be to starve the hardworking workers, farmers and other common people who have devoted their whole lives to participate in all the developments of the universe till date and endanger the humanity itself.
