The pace of development of generative AI platforms like ChatGPT, Bard and HeyPi has led to concerns that it is getting out of control, creating a digital divide between generations. While younger generations, particularly those in the tech industry, are staying on top of the latest AI developments, older generations are finding it difficult to keep up. Similar to when Facebook and Twitter were introduced, AI is creating a divide between those who are embracing its possibilities and those who are unsure or resistant. Tech leaders, including Elon Musk and Steve Wozniak have warned of the risks of powerful AI systems and called for a pause in their development until their effects can be fully understood and mitigated. Meanwhile, more than 350 scientists and tech leaders have also expressed deep concern over AI risks and believe it should be a global priority to mitigate the risk of extinction from AI. The rapid pace of AI developments can create a knowledge gap and a sense of unease or division across generations.
ChatGPT and HeyPi are examples of generative AI platforms, while Bard is not mentioned in the article.
