A series of severe warnings from within the artificial intelligence world about the dangers of the technology has failed to convince some executives and investors in Silicon Valley.
The warnings have been described as dramatic and form part of a recent wave of concern about AI. They centre on the potential dangers associated with the technology, although the supplied material does not identify the individuals making the warnings or set out the specific risks they raised.
The response from parts of the technology and investment community has been sceptical. Executives and investors are among those said to have questioned or resisted the force of the warnings, suggesting that concern about AI is not being received uniformly across the sector.
The reaction highlights a divide between those issuing urgent cautions about artificial intelligence and some of the people involved in funding or leading technology businesses. Silicon Valley remains closely associated with AI development and investment, making the response from its executives and backers significant.
No named companies, executives, investors or AI organisations are identified in the supplied material. It also does not provide dates, direct quotations, regulatory responses or details of any specific AI system linked to the warnings.
For now, the latest known position is that the recent warnings about AI danger have encountered scepticism among some influential figures in Silicon Valley, rather than prompting a universally accepting response.
