Nvidia CEO and co-founder Jensen Huang praises President Donald Trump's AI agenda and outlines what the country's future will look like in his “special report.”
One of the most prominent figures in the world of artificial intelligence, Jeffrey Hinton is alarming that machines can quickly outperform humans, and he advocates that “maternal instinct” be incorporated into sophisticated systems to ensure that AI cares and protects people.
Hinton believes artificial general information on AI that can meet or surpass human abilities could be just a few years away, much earlier than previous estimates of 30-50 years, Forbes Magazine reported.
“They'll be much smarter than us,” Hinton said at a recent AI4 conference in Las Vegas. “Imagine you were in charge of a three-year-old playground and you worked for them.

According to Forbes, Hinton, who is frequently referred to as the “AI Godfather” and the “AI Godfather”, said AI has a unique ability to learn collectively.

“If people can do that in college, you'll take one course, your friends take different courses, you know everything,” he said. “You can only share for a second. AI can share 1 trillion bits with each update.”

Hinton believes researchers should prioritize creating AI that truly cares for people, rather than focusing on maintaining control. According to Forbes, “maternal instincts” should be incorporated into systems that are motivated to protect human life, he said.
Sam Altman of Openai says the GPT-5 can “save many lives.”
“We need an AI mother, not an AI assistant,” Hinton said. “Assistant is someone you can fire. You cannot fire your mother, thankfully.”

Despite many warnings about the dangers of AI, Hinton believes it can provide benefits in the healthcare industry. He said AI could speed up patient diagnosis, develop more targeted drugs and provide tailored treatment, Forbes reported.

Hinton quit his job as a Google Engineer in 2023. This further warned of the dangers of AI development. Hinton has worked for Google for over 10 years and is responsible for the 2012 technical breakthrough that serves as the foundation for current AI like ChatGpt.
Hinton did not immediately respond to a request for Fox Business's comment.
