Geoffrey Hinton, a pioneer of modern neural networks often called the “godfather of AI,” told an industry conference that the only reliable way for humans to survive the arrival of superintelligent artificial intelligence is to build machines that genuinely care for people — what he described as instilling “maternal instincts” into advanced AI systems. He argued conventional strategies that try to keep AI submissive will fail once machines become far smarter than humans, and urged researchers to prioritise ways to make AI protective of human life and dignity (CNN report).
