Global Scientific Leaders Propose Radical Rethinking of AI’s Trajectory
A pivotal roundtable discussion held by the Boston Global Forum, the Active Inference Institute, and the Neuropsychiatry and Society Program on December 12, 2023, marked a significant turning point in our understanding and development of artificial intelligence.
This group of leaders came together to to discuss a letter signed by 25 neuroscientists, biologists, physicists, policy makers, AI researchers, entrepreneurs, and directors of research labs on a joint initiative proposing a radical rethinking of AI’s trajectory, advocating for a model of AI that is fundamentally different from the data-intensive, computationally expensive systems that dominate today’s landscape.
Audio narration of the article, Turning Point in AI - Leaders Rally for a Natural AI Initiative
They propose that rather than giant neural networks, we need AI systems modeled after natural organisms - displaying key attributes like autonomy, adaptability, and goal-directedness.
Their meeting signifies growing momentum behind a new approach to AI called Active Inference, developed by world renowned neuroscientist, Dr. Karl Friston, Chief Science Officer at VERSES AI, that leads to more transparent, ethical, and beneficial intelligent systems.
🔍 Key Points of the Letter:🧠💡
Unprecedented AI Achievements: Celebrating the strides of LLMs and Transformer models in revolutionizing information processing.
Engineering vs. Science: Highlighting the need for scientific grounding in AI development, beyond just engineering ingenuity.
Narratives vs. Reality: Addressing the misconceptions about AI's existential threats and the reality of "super intelligence."
Scientifically Grounded AI: Advocating for AI that integrates with the broader ecosystem of intelligent life, based on computational neuroscience and biology.
Future of AI: Envisioning efficient, distributed, and ethically grounded AI that is more in tune with natural intelligence.
Collaborative Change: Calling for interdisciplinary collaboration to foster a scientifically informed, ethical, and beneficial AI future.
