Meta CEO Nick Clegg said today that current artificial intelligence (AI) models are "pretty dumb" and played down the potential risks of using them.

He said that the excitement about the emergence of artificial intelligence is premature in relation to the level of its technological development, writes the BBC.

Clegg explained that current AI models are far from thinking for themselves, but "are quite stupid in many ways," said a representative of the company that owns Facebook and Instagram.

Meta has released the general free use of the language model "AI Llama 2" even for commercial purposes.

Clegg said that such platforms that run "chatbots" like ChatGPT basically just put together pieces of a huge language base and make sentences by guessing what the next word in the sequence would be.

Clegg added that the warnings of an "existential threat" to humanity by some artificial intelligence experts refer to systems that do not yet exist.
