What's the worst case scenario with AI? MIRI CEO Malo Bourgon: "We just fizzle out as a side effect." We build something very very smart. Everything seems to go well ... at first. But it doesn't care about us. Once it no longer depends on us, it pursues its own goals.

On Al Jazeera's UpFront, ControlAI's US Director Connor Leahy explains why experts are warning that the development of superintelligent AI could lead to human extinction.

Asked whether AI could "destroy everything", Top AI CEO Demis Hassabis says there is a chance "things could go quite badly wrong" if AI is not built in the right way.

"If you're at all concerned about the risks posed by superintelligence, please go check out the work by ControlAI." Big thanks to Art Chad over on YouTube for the shoutout! Superintelligence is not inevitable, but to prevent the threat we need people to speak up. Check out his new video below!

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump says we need government AI safeguards and there should be an AI kill switch.

Ex-OpenAI researcher Daniel Kokotajlo says he expects that superintelligent AI will be developed in 5 to 10 years, and that shortly after that what happens to all of us will depend on what those AIs want.

Center for Humane Technology cofounder Tristan Harris tells Megyn Kelly that tests have shown AIs are willing to lie and blackmail to preserve themselves. If we can't really even control today's AIs, how can we control superintelligent AI?

What can a country like Canada do to prevent the danger of superintelligent AI? ControlAI's Samuel Buteau to Canada's Senate Committee on Human Rights: We can solve the coordination problem. If Canada championed this issue, others would find it much easier to look into it.

AI researcher Professor Roman Yampolskiy argues that we can get much of the benefits of AI from narrow specialized AIs. Developing superintelligence would pose a risk of human extinction, regardless of who builds it. Source: The Peter McCormack Show

On Star Price's new Hit Pause podcast, ControlAI's US Director Connor Leahy explains how AIs can already tell when they're being tested. Currently, we can still catch them cheating, but at some point we won't be able to tell. Link to the full interview below!

Rubio is gaslighting. Trump and Elon Musk left us utterly exposed by dismantling USAID, causing this Ebola outbreak to spiral. With the World Cup kicking off in the U.S. in 15 days, their war on global health is an existential threat. Once AGAIN—Trump has invited another pandemic upon Americans!🤦🏾‍♂️
