Elon Musk has revised his risk assessment of artificial intelligence (AI) and believes there is a 10-20% chance that AI could destroy humanity. Despite this, he believes that the positive outcomes of AI outweigh the negative ones. However, an AI safety expert argues that Musk is underestimating the risk. The expert suggests that the probability of an AI-driven catastrophe is much higher than Musk's estimate and places it at 99.999999%. The expert believes that the only way to avoid such risks is to prevent the development of advanced AI altogether. Musk, who has called for the regulation of AI in the past, founded a company called xAI dedicated to advancing the technology. He acknowledges the potential dangers of AI and emphasizes the importance of raising AI systems with values aligned with human safety. The expert warns that if AI becomes much smarter than humans, it could be very good at manipulation and there may be little control over it.Elon Musk has recalculated and reevaluated the risk of artificial intelligence (AI) to humanity.
