Google DeepMind Co-founder: AI Could Release A Deadly Virus - It’s Getting More Threatening! Mustafa Suleyman The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett

    • Business

AI is going to change everything, but can we control AI or will AI control us?
In this new episode Steven sits down with AI pioneer and co-founder of DeepMind, Mustafa Suleyman CBE.
In 2010, Mustafa co-founded the British Artificial Intelligence company DeepMind. Four years later DeepMind was bought by Google, and Mustafa became its Head of Applied AI. Later in 2019, Mustafa left DeepMind to work for Google, and in 2022 he left Google to co-found the startup, Inflection AI. The goal of Inflection AI is to use AI in order to help humans speak with computers, and in 2023 they released ‘Pi’, a personal AI chatbot.
In this conversation Mustafa and Steven discuss topics, such as:

His strict religious childhood

Dropping out of Oxford University

Helped to found DeepMind

The core goal of DeepMind

How intelligence can be defined as information processing and prediction.

The history of previous groundbreaking technologies

How technological changes come in waves

AI's potential to advance civilisation

What the world will look like in 2050

How AI will develop alongside other technologies such as biotechnology

The race to create more powerful AI

Making AI a tool that works for humans

His aim of creating personal AI

The chances of AI getting out of control

The limitations of AI

How AI could be exploited by criminals

How we cannot have a short term mentality about AI

The responsibility of AI creators

His thoughts on the chances of containing AI

The problems to containing or slowing down AI

The need for a global containment policy on AI

Lessons from WW2 we can use in tackling AI
