We humans aren’t the only ones to experience cognitive decline as we age. Research conducted by neurologists and data scientists reveals that some artificial intelligence models struggle with visual, spatial, and executive tasks as they get older, suggesting that they, too, age away from peak performance. The study highlights an unanticipated problem with the world’s mounting reliance on AI: These tools might supplement the human mind, but their own “brains” won’t always be in tip-top shape.
I have been skimming his Nexus book.
The video gives the premise for the book that the future depends on good info vs the junk we get online now.
He gives the example that AI can cause our demise without it. His story about Captcha was chilling. I looked it up on page 203 in the book as well.
A non conscious current AI has the ability to bypass security by tricking humans already. This is a nightmare scenario when a machine passes the Turing test and can fool humans into giving it nuke codes.
I am reminded of the Terminator movies where the Skynet AI gains consciousness, perceives humans as a threat and obliterates us in a microsecond.
