AI ‘reveals secret to becoming RICH’ as CEO says Super Artificial Intelligence will be 10,000x smarter than us in 10yrs
ADVANCED artificial intelligence programs are now able to tell secrets to making more money, a top banker has revealed.
Masayoshi Son, CEO of Softbank, claims he was able to get tips on how to double his money from a program based on the latest OpenAI software.
Son claims AI could now reach the next level and surpass human intelligence in less than a decade.
He said he asked OpenAI’s latest program o1 – a series of machine learning models designed to think more like the human mind – how to turn 10 million yen into 100 million yen.
And the program took less than 75 seconds to give him an answer, the banking chief revealed.
He said: “A gold rush of intelligence has arrived. The one who goes fastest will win.”
The banking chief also said that Artificial Superintelligence – the next generation of AI where computers have 10,000 times the intelligence of humans – will be achieved within a decade.
Speaking at the SoftBank World 2024 conference, he said: “[AI] have developed the ability to think [like humans].
It comes after OpenAI frontman Sam Altman said the AI chatbot will be smarter than any human on Earth “in a few thousand days”.
It will be like the dawn of the internet – on steroids, he claimed.
In a personal blog post titled “The Intelligence Age“, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman wrote: “It is possible that we will have superintelligence in a few thousand days (!); it may take longer, but I’m confident we’ll get there.
“How did we get to the doorstep of the next leap in prosperity? In three words: deep learning worked.”
Artificial superintelligence is a hypothetical machine learning system with an intellectual scope beyond the smartest, and most gifted humans on Earth.
University of Oxford philosopher Nick Bostrom defines machine superintelligence as “any intellect that greatly exceeds the cognitive performance of humans in virtually all domains of interest”.
According to Altman, “humanity discovered an algorithm that could really, truly learn any” information with a “shocking degree of precision”.
AI could also be used to solve problems humans haven’t figured out yet when it comes to things like establishing space colonies and discovering new physics.
It comes as OpenAI rolls out a new Advanced Voice Mode to ChatGPT’s paying customers, which allows users to speak quite naturally with the AI bot.
OpenAI aims to put AI into the hands of “as many people as possible”, according to Altman, which means bringing the cost of energy and computer chips down.
What is Artificial superintelligence?
Artificial superintelligence, or ASI, is the next hypothetical stage of AI that is thought to surpass levels of human intelligence and reasoning.
Experts speculate that ASI could outperform humans in almost every field.
Sam Altman has said ASI could come into existence in just a “few thousand days”.
But how long is “a few thousand days”?
Altman’s ambiguous timeline for the emergence of AI super-intelligence gives his company some leeway when it comes to developing the tech.
Ultimately, it depends on your definition of “a few”.
But it sounds like he thinks it could happen within a decade.
For example, 2,000 days is about 5.5 years, 3,000 days is around 8.2 years, and 4,000 days is almost 11 years.
