We're far from human level A.i., early DeepMind investor says

Humayun Sheikh, a founding investor of DeepMind, said that despite advances in AI, humans are still far from achieving artificial general intelligence (AGI).

  • He compared the current state of AI to Yahoo being born, but Google not yet existing.
  • Google is investing heavily in AI, as evidenced by its acquisition of DeepMind and the launch of its own chatbot Bard, in an effort to compete with Microsoft and OpenAI.
  • Despite AI's potential, tech leaders have called for a six-month ban on AI development more advanced than GPT-4, due to risks associated with AI.
