In a year and a half, next-generation ChatGPT—which will possess PhD-level Itelligence—will go live. CTO of OpenAI Mira Murati
The next iteration of ChatGPT, according to OpenAI CTO Mira Murati, will have PhD-level intelligence and appear more intelligent than humans in many jobs.
In summary, next-generation GPT will possess PhD-level intellect for particular tasks.
More intelligent AI that is safer to use and manage.
Artificial Intelligence will touch every industry, including cognitive labor.
The CTO of OpenAI spoke extensively on the future of artificial intelligence, the next iteration of ChatGPT, and its PhD-level intelligence while she was recently at her alma mater, Dartmouth Engineering. According to Murati, GPT-3 was as intelligent as a toddler, GPT-4 was as intelligent as a high school student, and the upcoming model generation will, for certain jobs, be as intelligent as a PhD holder. Additionally, she disclosed that the upcoming GPT generation should be available in “a year and a half.” She went on to say that you can feel that the next-generation chatbot is wiser than you in many situations when you converse with it.
What happens if ChatGPT is too smart?
The interviewer, Dartmouth Trustee Jefferey Blackburn, posed the issue we’ve all been wondering to Murati: What if, in three years, when the GPT reaches astonishing intelligence, it decides it wants to connect to the internet and begin doing things on its own? Is that true, and as the Chief Technology Officer of OpenAI, is that something you’re considering?
Indeed, we’re giving this a lot of thought. There is little doubt that in the future, artificial intelligence (AI) systems will be able to act as agents, communicate with one another, connect to the internet, and perform activities in tandem. They may even be able to function in perfect harmony with humans. Working with AI in a similar manner to how we collaborate with one another now, she explains.
“I believe that safety, security, and the societal effects of this work are not afterthoughts. It is possible that after developing the technology in a certain way, you may need to address these problems. To get it properly, you essentially have to design them alongside the technology and in a deeply entrenched manner. Furthermore, capabilities and safety aren’t really distinct realms. They complement one another. A more intelligent system can be guided much more easily by being told, “Okay, just don’t do these things.” They have to oversee a less sophisticated system. As Murati puts it, “intelligent people make safer dogs. It’s like training a smarter dog against a dumber dog.”
In essence, according to the CTO of OpenAI, AI systems in the future will be able to communicate with one another, connect to the internet, and work with people. She does draw attention to the fact that more intelligent AI systems are safer and easier to manage.
Furthermore, Murati stated that when it comes to a technology like artificial intelligence, “it is not possible to have zero risks.” In response to a query on deepfake videos, she states that although OpenAI bears some of the blame because they own the technology, users, civil society, the government, and content producers also bear some of the blame. “Determining how it’s used is our responsibility, but it’s also a shared responsibility with society, civil society, the government, content creators, the media, and so on.”
Effects of AI and ChatGPT
Making AI widely known was ChatGPT’s greatest contribution. It made AI’s potential and concerns clear to the public. Reading about artificial intelligence is not the same as putting it to use in your company. According to Murati, when you give it a try, you’ll notice both its limitations and incredible potential, which will help you comprehend what it implies for your line of work or business.
However, Murati thinks that AI will “affect everything” when it comes to the industries that would be most affected. No sector of the economy will be immune to the effects of cognitive labor and work. I suppose everything will be affected by it, even though it might take a little while longer to reach the physical world,” she thinks.
Regarding employment, Murati thinks that “some creative jobs” in particular will undoubtedly be affected, but she also thinks that these are the jobs that “shouldn’t have been there in the first place.” The next generation of AI, according to the CTO of OpenAI, will reduce the threshold for “creativity” and make it accessible to more individuals than just “talented people.” AI will boost creativity in all people. This is why AI will simply replace some vocations that were previously available to a small number of creative individuals.
