He insisted that AI has the potential to “transform warfare as we know it,” with “serious” consequences for national security. The lawmaker argued that if artificial general intelligence “surpasses human intelligence, it could pose a threat to our military, potentially rendering our current defensive capabilities obsolete.”
“[Artificial general intelligence] has the potential to revolutionize our world in ways we can’t yet imagine, but if AGI surpasses human intelligence, it could cause significant harm to humanity if its goals and motivations are not aligned with our own. If humans manage to control AGI before an intelligence explosion, it could transform science, economies, our environment and society with advances in every field of human endeavor," Hill claimed.
