From the New York Times, I'm Sabrina Tavernicee, and this is The Daily.

As the world begins to experiment with the power of artificial intelligence, a debate

has begun about how to contain its risks.

One of the sharpest and most urgent warnings has come from the man who helped invent the

technology.

Today, my colleague, Cade Mitz, speaks to Jeffrey Hinton, who many consider to be the Godfather

of AI.

It's Tuesday, May 30th.

Cade, welcome to the show.

Glad to be here.

So a few weeks ago, you interviewed Jeffrey Hinton, a man who many people know as the Godfather

of AI.

And aside from the obvious fact that AI is really taking over all conversations at all times,

why talk to Jeff now?

I've known Jeff a long time.

I wrote a book about the 50-year rise of the ideas that are now driving chatbots like

chat GPT and Google Bard.

And you could argue that he is the most important person to the rise of AI over the past 50 years.

And amidst all this that's happening with these chatbots, he sent me an email and said,

I'm leaving Google and I want to talk to you.

And that he wants to discuss where this technology is going, including some serious concerns.

Who better to talk to than the Godfather of AI?
