Hinton

Last month, a group of former open AI staff and outside experts, including Geoffrey Hinton, wrote to regulators in California and Delaware, which have power over non-profits, asking them to intervene to block the conversion.

It's a definition that has been good enough since the 1980s, when future Nobel Prize-winner Geoffrey Hinton and others picked up on an older idea called backpropagation, applying it as an algorithm that mimics human brains by systematically reducing errors through repeated iterations and thus allows for more efficient training of multilayer neural networks.

The annual four-day Cambridge Folk Festival, organised by Cambridge City Council, first began in 1965 and has been hosted in the grounds of Cherry Hinton Hall.

Prof Geoffrey Hinton, often described as one of the Godfathers of AI, says these as "short-term risks".

Prof Hinton compared this eventuality to the height of the Cold War, when the US and Russia "just about succeeded" in collaborating in order to prevent global nuclear war.
