Interview with Turing Award winner Valiant: People should have a more comprehensive understanding of artificial intelligence

2024-07-18

The 2024 International Conference on Basic Sciences recently opened in Beijing. Leslie Walyant, an internationally renowned computer scientist and Turing Award winner, stated in an interview with Xinhua News Agency that people should have a more comprehensive understanding of artificial intelligence. In the future, it will penetrate into every aspect of human life and become an important support for people's work. Whatever people want to do, they can be empowered by computers. Internationally renowned computer scientist and Turing Award winner Leslie Valiante believes that there are many controversies and concerns about the development of artificial intelligence, believing that it has some mysterious and incomprehensible qualities, and even described as a destructive force for humanity. These controversies and concerns have been exaggerated to some extent. If we don't understand something, it can become quite frightening. Valiante also emphasized that we still need to be vigilant about people using artificial intelligence technology to commit fraud or other illegal activities, and the government, scientists, and society should be committed to solving related problems. But we should not overlook the ability of artificial intelligence to process information on a larger scale. Currently, global artificial intelligence technology is developing rapidly, but in Valiante's view, the development of artificial intelligence still started relatively late. He said, 'Just like climate change, if we had started researching it 20 years earlier, we could have made more positive progress now, and the same goes for artificial intelligence.' Large language models are currently one of the focuses of artificial intelligence development. Valiant said, "It can help you deliver a very smooth speech or provide useful advice. Of course, from a scientific perspective, artificial intelligence still has a lot of room for improvement, making it more trustworthy and reliable for humans
