Functioning as a way to perform human activities in an automated and more accurate way, artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly in evidence. This technology has gradually increased its participation in the world, and its results in the job market make it highly sought after.
However, the self-operation of such intelligence raises concerns about our security, making even influential people in favor of curbing the evolution of AI.

Constant evolution of AI scares CEOs and billionaires
The research institution Future of Life Institute (FOLI) issued a document that calls for a pause in the development of AI, containing the signature of names such as Steve Wozniak and the billionaire Elon Musk.
In all, more than 2,600 important names in the technological universe participated in the movement, defending the idea that humanity can face serious problems with the advancement of AI.
Why does this movement exist?
As is common knowledge, artificial intelligence is capable of producing incredible things in a matter of seconds. This technology performs several activities and, the more it is used, the more powerful and autonomous it becomes.
Because of this, several people defend the idea that humanity can become hostage to this technology. if it is not developed in the most appropriate way possible, which does not seem to be happening at the moment.
business competition
With more and more companies investing in the production of different types of AI, the idea that competition between them can generate chaos only grows.
This is because, normally, there is a need to get ahead of competitors, and the means for this to happen may not be the most beneficial.
With that, the results that an AI developed in a way, let's say, not very ethical, become unpredictable and beyond human control.
Consequently, it is not possible to have an idea to what degree of threat to its security humanity may suffer.
If the request is not accepted...
To further emphasize the seriousness of this unbridled evolution, in the view of FOLI, the document states that it is the role of governments to limit the development of AI if technology companies do not heed their order.
