AI can develop a language that will be beyond the understanding of humans, scientist warns

A warning has been issued once again regarding Artificial Intelligence (AI), and this time it has been given by Geoffrey Hinton, often referred to as the "godfather of AI." During a recent conversation on a podcast, he stated that in the future, machines may develop their own language and thinking, which humans will neither be able to understand nor track.

Hinton said, "Right now AI systems think in English through a process called 'Chain of Thought', through which we can understand what they are doing. But the danger will increase when they create their own language to communicate with each other." He further said that AI systems can already process dangerous ideas.

Hinton, who won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 2024, has brought revolutionary changes in the field of AI. But now he himself is worried about this technology. He said, "I should have understood long ago what the dangers could be in it. I assumed that the future is still far away, but now I think I should have been alert then itself."

Hinton believes that the biggest difference between AI systems and human brains is that whatever AI learns, that knowledge can be instantly shared in thousands of systems. Giving an example, he said, "Imagine what will happen if 10,000 people learn something together? This is what happens with AI systems."
