Summary
A one-sentence open letter signed by hundreds of AI researchers — including Geoffrey Hinton and Yoshua Bengio — stated: 'Mitigating the risk of extinction from AI should be a global priority alongside other societal-scale risks.' The letter brought existential AI risk into mainstream policy debate.
Who signed the letter, what they believe the risks are, and the response from AI sceptics.
A fair-minded assessment of the arguments for and against taking AI extinction risk seriously.
