The World Economic Forum (WEF) published its 19th Global Risks Report, which mentioned artificial intelligence (AI) as a global threat. This report also explored its diverse implications in a dedicated section, stated Cointelegraph.
The WEF report mentioned the adverse outcomes of AI technologies, some intended or unintended negative consequences of advances in AI and related technological capabilities (including generative AI) on individuals, businesses, ecosystems and economies.
The report also identifies quantum computing, a system reliant on AI, as a potential threat to the existing tech landscapes. It is believed to identify the adverse outcomes of AI in technologies including quantum computing, biotechnology and geoengineering.
However, the WEF highlighted that AI can offer productivity benefits and breakthroughs in fields as diverse as healthcare, education and climate change.
