Now, frontier AI has become the latest buzzword as concerns grow that the emerging technology has capabilities that could endanger humanity.
The debate comes to a head Wednesday, when British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak hosts a two-day summit focused on frontier AI.
In a speech last week, Sunak said only governments — not AI companies — can keep people safe from the technology’s risks.
Frontier AI is shorthand for the latest and most powerful systems that go right up to the edge of AI’s capabilities.
That makes frontier AI systems “dangerous because they’re not perfectly knowledgeable,” Clune said.
