Elon Musk, AI experts call for pause in developing powerful systems

Elon Musk and a group of artificial intelligence experts and industry executives are calling for a six-month pause in developing systems more powerful than OpenAI's newly launched GPT-4 in an open letter citing potential risks to society.

Microsoft backed OpenAI unveiled the fourth iteration of its GPT Generative Pre-trained Transformer AI program, which has wowed users by engaging them in human-like conversations, composing songs and summarizing long documents earlier this month.

The letter issued by the Future of Life Institute states that powerful AI systems should only be developed once we are confident that their effects will be positive and their risks will be manageable.
