The head of Sberbank, German Gref, warned of the risk of creating a closed club of the world’s greatest powers in the field of artificial intelligence (AI), similar to the nuclear club.
“There is a danger of creating, along with the nuclear closed club of world powers, the creation of a closed club of world powers in the field of AI. And this is the creation of such complex systems as neural networks. I think that we must try our best to be members of this club, to be donors, not recipients of these technologies, ”he said during a speech at the Federation Council (quoted by TASS).
Gref added that it is necessary to continue working on the development of AI technology, as it can make a significant positive contribution to the growth of the national economy in the future.
The head of the state bank added that it is necessary to pay special attention to security, and the issue of cybersecurity must be ahead of the development of AI.
At the same time, Gref doubted that the AI could destroy a person, but admitted that it was capable of causing “some damage”.
