In a recent interview on CNN’s State of the Union, AI pioneer Geoffrey Hinton shared his predictions for the future of artificial intelligence in 2026. Hinton, who has been dubbed the “Godfather of AI” for his groundbreaking work in the field, expressed growing concern about the technology’s rapid progress and its potential to displace human workers across various industries.
According to Hinton, AI has been improving at an accelerating pace, with the time required to complete tasks being cut in half roughly every seven months. This exponential growth suggests that AI will soon be capable of performing complex tasks, such as software engineering, in a fraction of the time it currently takes human professionals. As a result, Hinton predicts that the demand for human labor in these fields will significantly diminish in the coming years.

Right now, I would only trust AI to create a rough draft of any document and then have an experienced person to proof it.

ReplyDeleteShut down all AI save money, save jobs, save electricity.
ReplyDeleteSome jobs AI can do. Some jobs it won't ever do, and some it will do but screw them up royally. Eventually someone will suffer a "loss" due to a decision or act by AI and will sue. Then we get a whole new chapter of jurisprudence as the courts will have to decide how to apply tort law to a "smart" computer.
