Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus today expressed cautions over development of ‘autonomous intelligence’ that may pose threats to human existence.
“As the scientific community and the world of technology keeps moving on developing ‘autonomous intelligence’ – artificial intelligence that propagates on its own without any human intervention – we all need to be cautious of possible impact on every human person or our societies, today and beyond,” he told the 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) here.
Delivering his speech in Bangla, Prof Yunus said many have reasons to believe that unless autonomous intelligence develops in a responsible manner, it can pose threats to human existence.
“We are particularly enthused with emergence of the Artificial Intelligence tools and applications. Our youth are excited with the prospect of fast unfolding generative AI. They aspire to walk and work as global citizens,” he said.
The chief adviser said the world needs to ensure that no youth in countries like Bangladesh get left behind in meaningfully reaping benefits from the AI-led transformation.
The world simultaneously needs to ensure that the development of artificial intelligence does not diminish the scope or demand for human labour, he said.বিস্তারিত
