Google is eyeing to create a stop button for all the robotic system to avoid these artificial intelligence devices to dominate the world. The tech giant along with its parent company, Alphabet Inc., distributed a study that will guide DeepMind Technologies to put a kill switch on AI.
'A Big Red Button'
The Google-owned British artificial intelligence company, DeepMind Technologies, is now working with other researchers from the University of Oxford's Future of Humanity Institute, according to 9news.com.au.
They are set to build up "a big red button" to preclude the robotics from doing some actions that can affect the humanity.
A Design To Interrupt AI
In the paper published by Google, it said that the scientists found a design to constantly disrupt a machine. They, too, assures that AI "will not learn to prevent (or seek) being interrupted by the environment or a human operator" by its own.
They say that a robotic must have the ability to "safely interrupt" particularly for the "misbehaving" ones, DNA India reported.
The Danger Of Robotic Systems
The scientists from DeepMind Technologies and Oxford University's Future of Humanity Institute noted their anxieties and ideas of the possible dangers of robotic systems.
The researchers explained in the study that an AI may act horribly at times. This could lead to a disastrous turn of events if humans don't have a switch to disrupt their robots.
In fact, the likes of Stephen Hawking and Elon Musk support this claims. They, too, believe that AI might have the ability to destroy the humankind, as per The Inquirer.
"Safe interruptibility can be useful to take control of a robot that is misbehaving," the study revealed. "[It] may lead to irreversible consequences, or to take it out of a delicate situation, or even to temporarily use it to achieve a task it did not learn to perform or would not normally receive rewards for."
