In an open letter published by the nonprofit Future of Life Institute, a group of artificial intelligence researchers, including Tesla CEO Elon Musk, are calling for a moratorium on the development of large-scale artificial intelligence systems. Their letter reads: Stop AI development! The letter expresses concern over the potential risks these systems pose to society and humanity, as well as the lack of understanding and control over them. The researchers are urging AI labs to stop updating AI systems stronger than GPT-4 for at least six months and work with independent regulators to develop security protocols.
