Joseph Gordon-Levitt's AI warning

Joseph Gordon-Levitt has revealed his AI concerns

Joseph Gordon-Levitt says humanity should be concerned about the people building AI, not AI itself.

“I would object to that question just because reducing these concerns into one sound bite of fear, that’s one of the problems.”

AI building risks

Joseph Gordon-Levitt warns AI could create economic and emotional issues through companies that take over the economy.

“These companies are betting on the notion that they’re going to take over the entire economy. That would be totalitarianism, and that would be really bad.”

Ben Affleck's AI approach

Ben Affleck wants to use AI collaboratively without copywriting or extractive practices.

“I wouldn’t use something that trains on or has learned from any work that is copywritten, or that is an intelligence created by a peer of mine or somebody that I look up to.”
