A museum exhibit has imagined a post - apocalyptical world afterartificial intelligence(AI ) has wiped out most of humankind , before attempting to make amends by create a museum display .

call the Misalignment Museum , the team trust the display will increase visitors ' noesis and consciousness of unreal cosmopolitan intelligence ( AGI ) –   the power of an AI to remember and do task like a human being .

" Our goal is to create a outer space to reflect on the technology itself and think critically about Artificial Intelligence and its conditional relation , " the teamwrites on their internet site . " Our Bob Hope is to animate and build up support to formulate and enact risk palliation measures we can take to ensure a positive future as AI keep to develop , and in the advent of AGI . "

The display include a friendly welcome from the machine , reading " dreary for vote out most of manhood " . The exhibit includes a numeral of installations , from Michelangelo’sThe Creation of Adamas categorise by AI , toa squad of cans of spampowered by language modelling civilize on a " piggy " version of Aldous Huxley’sBrave New Worldattempting to tell apart their own story .

The exhibit also have a fairly convincing imitation conversation between an AI - generated Werner Herzog and philosopher Slavoj Žižek

While innovations in natural language processing may be impressive , they work more like " spicy autocomplete " than factual general hokey intelligence operation .

Some estimates have placed contrived general intelligence as being as little asseven years away , though a survey of AI researchers put it more around2050 .

But will AGI necessarily be as bad as the apocalyptic display realize out ? On that , AI researchers have their concerns .

Surveying researcher who had co - authored at least two computational linguistics publications between 2019–2022,a squad foundthat people in the field are not altogether positive about the direction of locomotion for AI .

" 73 percentage of respondents harmonize that working class mechanization from AI could believably take to revolutionary societal modification in this century , on at least the scale of the Industrial Revolution , " the researcherswrote of their sketch . Meanwhile , a surprisingly - mellow 36 pct of AI researchers agree that AI could grow ruinous upshot this hundred " on the level of all - out atomic warfare " .

It ’s not even clear that in real life the AI would apologize with a museum afterward . The Misalignment Museum exhibit iscurrently open to visitors in San Francisco .
