AlphaGo Creator Criticizes Current AI Development Path
David Silver, the creator of AlphaGo, has expressed concerns about the current trajectory of AI development, advocating for a focus on reinforcement learning. Silver, who now leads Ineffable Intelligence, argues that AI should learn through trial and error rather than relying on human data. He believes this approach will lead to 'superlearners' capable of surpassing human intelligence in various domains. Silver's company aims to develop AI that can independently discover new scientific and technological advancements, contrasting with the prevalent use of large-language models.
