BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE EVIL, THE LIES AND FAKES OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) WILL HELP DESTROY SOCIETY. The Holy Bible Says, “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” (Jeremiah 17:9)

Professor Ciaran Martin is the latest senior figure from the tech world to raise questions about the risks posed by AI which some critics fear could destroy the human race.

Artificial Intelligence risks “undermining the fabric of our society” because people will no longer be able to tell the difference between truth and lies, according to Britain’s former cyber security chief.

Ciaran Martin warned as it becomes capable of impersonating real people AI could make it much more difficult to see what is `true and reliable’.

He said the Government could fall behind the curve in policing it as most technological advancements are the work of private companies in the US.

Professor Martin, former head of GCHQ’s National Cyber Security Centre, said: “AI is now making it much easier to fake things, much easier to spoof voices, much easier to look like genuine information, much easier to put that out at scale.

“So having a sense of what is true and reliable, it’s going to become much more difficult.

“And that’s something that risks undermining the fabric of our society.”

The cyber expert, now of Oxford’s Blavatnik School of Government, said ministers face a tough time trying to impose controls on AI development.

“We’re all struggling to keep up with this,” he said.

“So much of the development is happening in the American private sector that there aren’t always the sort of levers that you can pull.

“You see this with something like the Online Safety Bill. You get into very controversial territory.

“And actually you end up being behind the curve in terms of the way in which the technology advances.

“The big question is how do you get technological markets to work in a way that validates information credibly and in a sort of economically efficient way.
