The rise of artificial intelligence is not alarmist, and many fields have ushered in substantial substitution
The more advanced the technology, the greater the risks faced by human beings, and with the continuous development of artificial intelligence technology, human concerns are becoming more and more obvious, especially after the launch of the ChatGPT chatbot by the American OpenAI company, it has triggered an unprecedented industry **.
From the perspective of the development of the entire industry, 2023 is undoubtedly the first year of artificial intelligence, and many companies have announced that they will enter the field of artificial intelligence to create a great model for training machines, so that machines have the possibility of replacing humans, which has also caused the unemployment of a large number of professionals in traditional industries.
Let's take the changes in two industries that we can feel, driven by artificial intelligence technology, a large number of basic workers are replaced by machines, resulting in a large number of people losing their jobs, which is happening.
The first is the change in the banking industry, I don't know if you have noticed, in the past two years, there have been very obvious changes within the bank, that is, the number of service personnel has been greatly reduced, there are more and more self-service equipment, and more and more users have begun to choose to use automated equipment to handle business.
Another change is the mass withdrawal of bank branches and the massive reduction of ATMs, which means that we have moved from the cash age to the digital age, where paper money is no longer needed to spend money and manual services are no longer needed to do things.
The second is the change of customer service, and now there is an obvious change in customer service, that is, the number of manual customer service personnel has been reduced on a large scale, and many enterprises have used artificial intelligence operators, who can automatically identify the needs of users and provide solutions.
Compared with human customer service, the advantages of AI customer service are more obvious, because human customer service will be affected by emotional fluctuations, while AI customer service has no emotional fluctuations, so replacing traditional human customer service with AI customer service is indeed the most ideal solution.
In addition to the above-mentioned types of work, the upgrade of artificial intelligence technology has also affected practitioners in many fields, such as new junior editors, online writers and other writers, who have lost some job opportunities because of the birth of artificial intelligence.
Assembly line workers, couriers, etc. will also be gradually replaced by the upgrade of artificial intelligence. The future is destined to be an era of comprehensive intelligence, and most junior jobs will be replaced by artificial intelligence.
This is by no means alarmist, as it is already happening.
Recently, the CEO of OpenAI, known as"The father of ChatGPT"Samaltman was fired from the company he founded, and many netizens jokingly referred to him as him"People who have lost their jobs due to artificial intelligence"。
Although Sam Altman was not fired directly by AI, but by the board members of OpenAI, Sam Altman was completely swept away because of AI technology, and it can be said that he is a success of AI and a failure of AI at the same time.
Sam Altman made OpenAI a world-renowned company because he led the formation of ChatGPT and other products, and also made OpenAI, a little-known small company, a household name and an Internet celebrity company in the global technology circle.
The reason why Sam Ultraman is ** is also because of ChatGPT, because the original intention of OpenAI was established to prevent artificial intelligence from threatening humans, so as to actively promote the development of artificial general intelligence for the benefit of all mankind.
OpenAI wants to ensure that the benefits of AI are widely and fairly distributed for the benefit of all humanity, so it is a non-profit research organization in its own right.
ChatGPT is also an open-source project that aims to make AI technology accessible to everyone and resist the monopoly of AI by large companies or a few individuals.
However, with the popularity of ChatGPT, OpenAI under the leadership of Samaltman has also undergone a huge transformation, and in the face of inflated business value, the conflict of ideas between internal executives has begun to come to the fore.
According to foreign ** reports, before Sam Altman was fired by the board of directors, there were widespread differences of opinion within the company's senior management on the safety, speed of technology development and commercialization of artificial intelligence, especially after the recent developer conference, there was a rapid promotion of technology.
According to external analysis, the reason for Sam-Altman** is that he is eager to commercialize OpenAI, attaches more importance to market competition, and is committed to promoting the accelerated development of the next generation of GPT.
Without fully considering the technical maturity of the product and the potential security risks, Samaltman insisted on launching a product that was not fully tested in terms of security, which caused dissatisfaction at the top because it violated the principles that OpenAI has always emphasized.
OpenAI's dismissal statement also noted that Sam Altman's consistent lack of candor in his communications with the board of directors has undermined the board's ability to perform its duties, and the board no longer believes in his ability to continue to lead OpenAI.
As a result, Sam Altman was fired from OpenAI's board of directors because he took the company from its original non-profit roots in a more entrepreneurial direction and actively pursued the commercialization of enterprise and consumer applications.
And the reason why Sam Altman changed his mind was mainly because of the existence of Microsoft. Microsoft is a major investor in OpenAI and the only company in OpenAI's history to provide it with significant funding and resources directly.
Since signing its first partnership agreement with OpenAI in 2019, Microsoft will invest at least $13 billion in OpenAI to become a major external shareholder of OpenAIGell.
As mentioned earlier, OpenAI's goal is to ensure that the benefits of AI are widely and fairly distributed for the benefit of all mankind, and now, OpenAI, which is getting closer to Microsoft, is moving away from this goal under the impetus of Sam Altman.
As a result, Sam Altman was eventually expelled from the board, but the capital struggle had only just begun.
Because now Microsoft CEO Nadella has announced that OpenAI founder Sam Altman and another co-founder, Brockman, will join Microsoft to lead a new advanced AI research team.
Under the impetus of Microsoft, if Sam Altman copies ChatGPT and accelerates the pace of technological upgrades, then it will definitely be one step closer to artificial intelligence replacing humans, artificial intelligence can promote the progress of human society, but it may also lead to the demise of mankind.
Therefore, it is by no means alarmist that artificial intelligence will replace humans, especially with the help of Microsoft's capital, and the final result may be contrary to OpenAI's original intention of creating ChatGPT.
