Tallinn warned that using AI in the military could make it very hard for humanity to control AI's trajectory.Bulgac/Getty Images Jaan Tallinn helped build Skype and is the founder of the Future of Life Institute. He recently warned of the risks of an AI arms race, describing theoretical anonymous "slaughterbots." This year hundreds in the AI space signed an open letter calling for a pause on AI development. "We might just be creating a world where it's no longer safe to be outside because you might be chased down by swarms of slaughterbots."Those words of warning came from Jaan Tallinn, a founding engineer of Skype, in a recent video interview with Al Jazeera.The Estonian computer programmer is a founder of the Cambridge Centre for the Study of Existential Risk and the Future of Life Institute, two organizations dedicated to the study and mitigation of existential risks, particularly risk brought about from the development of advanced AI technologies.Tallinn's reference to killer robots draws from the 2017 short film, "Slaughterbots," which was released by the Future of Life Institute as part of a campaign warning about the dangers of weaponized artificial intelligence.
