OpenAI Predicts Super Humans From AI Will Appear In The Next 10 Years

JAKARTA - OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Chief Technology Officer Greg Brockman, and Lead Scientist Ilya Sutskever recently wrote a detailed blog post regarding OpenAI's stance on development and settings "superintelligence."

Perhaps not surprisingly, the company - which is widely accepted as current industry leader in generating artificial intelligence (AI) technology - believes that it is more risky not to develop superior AI than to continue its efforts.

"Based on the picture we see now, it is possible that in the next ten years, the AI system will exceed the level of expertise of an expert in most areas, and carry out productive activities as much as one of the largest companies today," they said in the blog.

The potential for AI systems to reach human levels (often referred to as "AGI" or "generalized artificial intelligence" or, as OpenAI reminds of, goes beyond human capabilities at the level of experts, is still being debated. Many experts argue that machines will never achieve or exceed our own cognitive abilities.

It seems that OpenAI, Altman, Brockman, and Sutskever leaders prefer to be careful. However, their approach to caution did not ask for detention.

The blog post suggests increasing government oversight, involving the public in the decision-making process, and stronger cooperation between developers and companies in this area. These points reflect Altman's answers in answering questions from Senate subcommittee members in a recent congress hearing.

This blog post also shows that, according to OpenAI, "stop creating superinteligence" would be an unexpected and difficult risk. The blog post ends with the words: "We have to do it right."

In explaining the apparent paradox, the authors stated that stopping the creation of the superinteligence AI, which is said to be unavoidable, would require a global surveillance regime. "And even that," they wrote, "not guaranteeing it will work."

In the end, the authors seem to conclude that, in order to develop the controls and regulatory mechanisms needed to protect humanity from AI superinteligence, OpenAI must continue to work towards the creation of AI superinteligence.

As global debates over how this technology and its development should be regulated and regulated continue, the cryptocurrency, blockchain, and Web3 communities remain trapped in confusing or unclear types of rules.

AI has entered every technology sector, and fintech is no exception. With the cryptocurrency trading bot built using the ChatGPT and API GPT, many exchanges that implement AI solutions in their customer analysis and service platforms, regulatory efforts that affect the development of AI products that deal with consumers such as ChatGPT can have a disruptive impact on both industries.

Currently, there is no clear regulatory framework to regulate the development of AI technology. While OpenAI voiced the importance of government oversight and public participation in decision making regarding AI superinteligence, there are still many questions that need to be answered about how regulations should be effectively designed and implemented.

So far, Indonesia has also experienced similar challenges in regulating AI technology. The Indonesian government needs to maintain a balance between encouraging innovation in AI development and protecting the public interest and ensuring security and ethics in its use.

In dealing with the potential for superinteligence and energy transition AI, the Indonesian government needs to consider progressive policy development, by including various stakeholders, including the government, research institutions, industry, and the general public. The involvement of the private sector in the development and application of AI technology must also be supported by a clear regulatory framework and adequate supervision.

In this context, the steps taken by OpenAI in exploring the development of AI superintelligence and increased supervision can provide valuable input for Indonesia in formulating smart and future-minded policies.

By taking into account the potential risks and benefits inherent in AI technology, Indonesia can take advantage of the potential energy transition and ensure that the use of AI is carried out with responsibility and in the interests of the wider community.
