M said. Jawdat: “I advise against having children, if you do not have children, especially in light of the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence.”
Artificial intelligence expert and former Google business manager M. She discusses the dangers of artificial intelligence to humanity in an episode of the CEO Diaries podcast. The interview comes after Jawdat was appointed CEO of the marketing agency Flight Story.
Jawdat added, “The risks are so bad, in fact, when considering the threats facing humanity, one should refrain from having children.”
He explained, “There are multiple risks, economic, geopolitical, climate change, global warming and the idea of artificial intelligence. It’s like a storm. We don’t know what the future will look like. If you really love your children, why do you want to expose them to all this?”
“I have spent my career fascinated by the role that technology plays, and now technology has become humanity’s greatest challenge ever. Artificial intelligence is the culmination of technological progress and I believe it will be unprecedented in determining the way the world is shaped,” said Jawdat.
Elon Musk and Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak signed an open letter, asking developers to delay innovations related to artificial intelligence for at least 6 months, in order to allow the opportunity to process and understand the developments and innovations that currently exist.
