The main sources of AI risk?

Abstract

The development and deployment of artificial general intelligence (AGI) pose a significant existential risk to humanity. This article identifies a wide range of potential risks associated with AGI, encompassing both technical and societal challenges. The author meticulously enumerates these risks, including insufficient time and resources for AI safety, misspecified or incorrectly learned goals, inner optimizers, value drift, and the unintended consequences of AI-driven technological acceleration. The article also highlights the importance of global coordination in addressing these risks, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive and disjunctive understanding of the potential dangers of AGI. – AI-generated abstract
