Today, we get help from robot technology in many areas. When you enter a restaurant in Japan, you may find that your order is taken by a pranking robot or another robot is helping in the fight against the corona virus. The use of robots in every field and their increasing number may scare some of us.
A new piece of information has been revealed by researchers about robots, which we think we have control over. According to this information, which gives us goosebumps when we remember the science fiction movies we watched, artificial intelligence may be gaining consciousness.
So what does it mean for these robots, produced by humans, to ‘gain consciousness’?
Robots gaining consciousness; It means that he will be aware of himself and his surroundings, as well as emotionally feeling something. OpenAI Research Group chief scientist Ilya Sutskever said in a tweet that today’s artificial intelligence may be conscious. There are many researchers who agree with Sutskever, but say that robots are far behind human intelligence and are close to just consciously experiencing their environment for now.
According to some reports, OpenAI is working to produce specially conscious artificial intelligence. Elon Musk was also a member of OpenAI until 2019, but later left the team saying that he “didn’t agree with what the OpenAI team wanted to do”. Musk announced that Tesla will also do “his best” regarding the humanoid robots that will be released soon.
OpenAI, on the other hand, said that although it was a non-profit organization at the beginning, after Musk’s departure, they are no longer so. OpenAI also states that robots can solve all the problems we have today. While this is the case, it is quite logical for him to produce specially conscious robots and to work on this subject.
