A.I. Revolution | Full Documentary | NOVA | PBS
Can we harness the power of artificial intelligence to solve the world’s most challenging problems without creating an uncontrollable force that ultimately destroys us? ChatGPT and other new A.I. tools can now answer complex questions, write essays, and generate realistic-looking images in a matter of seconds. They can even pass a lawyer’s bar exam. Should we celebrate? Or worry? Or both? Correspondent Miles O’Brien investigates how researchers [such as Hany Farid] are trying to transform the world using A.I., hunting for big solutions in fields from medicine to climate change.
Hany Farid speaks to Miles O’Brien around 37:20.
Hany Farid is a professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering & Computer Sciences and the School of Information at UC Berkeley.
