This video has been updated -- please watch    • Ten AI Dangers You Can't Ignore  

What are the risks of artificial intelligence dangerous, and how do we develop ethical, safe and beneficial AI? This was produced before GPT and LLMs existed, but is more relevant now than ever - simply switch out Alexa for ChatGPT.

Risk Bites dives into AI risk and AI ethics, with ten potential risks of AI we should probably be paying attention to now, if we want to develop the technology safely, ethically, and beneficially, while avoiding the dangers. With author of Films from the Future and ASU professor Andrew Maynard.

Although the video doesn't include the jargon usually associated with AI risk and responsible innovation, the ten risks listed address:

0:00 Introduction
1:07 Technological dependency
1:25 Job replacement and redistribution
1:43 Algorithmic bias
2:03 Non-transparent decision making
2:27 Value-misalignment
2:44 Lethal Autonomous Weapons
2:59 Re-writable goals
3:11 Unintended consequences of goals and decisions
3:31 Existential risk from superintelligence
3:51 Heuristic manipulation

There are many other potential risks associated with AI, but as always with risk, the more important questions are associated with the nature, context, type of impact, and magnitude of impact of the risks; together with relevant benefits and tradeoffs.

The video is part of Risk Bites series on Public Interest Technology - technology in the service of public good.

RISK BITES LITE

Risk Bites Lite videos are shorter and lighter than regular Risk Bites videos - perfect for an injection of fun thoughts when you're not in the mood for anything too heavy!


RISK BITES

Risk Bites videos are devised, created and produced by Andrew Maynard, in association with the Arizona State University School for the Future of Innovation in Society (http://sfis.asu.edu). They focus on issues ranging from risk assessment and evidence-based decision making, to the challenges associated with emerging technologies and opportunities presented by public interest technology.
