Man who helped create 'creepy' street interview with two girls out clubbing addressed worrying context behind it

Just like the AI clubber says in the video, we may very well be 'cooked'

Over the past couple of days a street interview clip has gone viral online – but nor for the reasons you would expect.

As the vehicle which made Haliey Welch - aka, the Hawk Tuah Girl - famous, street interviews tend to follow the same formula, young, usually inebriated, people asked risqué or controversial questions.

With their responses chopped up into bite-sized clips and posted across social media.

Which is exactly what this clip of two young women being stopped on the street and asked questioned about 'one move with AI that makes haters go crazy every time' appears to be on the surface.

Until you look a little deeper and realise the whole thing reeks of uncanny valley, take a look at the clip yourself and see if you can smell a rat.



If the buzzword filled, garbled mess of a response didn't give it away already, the clip has been generated by artificial intelligence, showing just how clever computers are becoming.

The clip was created by Google Veo 3, the latest artificial intelligence software from the tech giant's DeepMind, an organisation which says it is striving to build AI software 'responsibly'.

The hyper-realistic has left several people feeling a little creeped out, as the much more realistic graphics - compared to this hysterical recreation of life on the Titanic - mean that it will soon be difficult to distinguish AI clips from real ones.

These concerns feel a lot more real once you realise that they're also shared by the people working inside the artificial intelligence industry.

One person who appears to understand these concerns is DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis, who recently claimed that we may very well be approaching the endgame when it comes to AI advancements.

Revealing that humanity is close to creating artificial general intelligence (AGI), a system which is capable of exhibiting the same 'cognitive capability' which humans have, Hassabis recently explained to TIME that we're about 'five to ten years' away from this.

"AGI is coming," he said. "[And] I’m not sure society’s quite ready for that yet."

However Hassabis isn't completely pessimistic when it comes to humanity's future, adding that with regulation and oversight he believes that AI will be extremely beneficial to society.

"The reason I've worked on AI and AGI [for] my entire life and career is because I believe if it's done properly and responsibly it will be the most beneficial technology ever invented," he explained.

Outlining his dream AI outcome, Hassabis added that he would like to see a world where such technology can bring peace and abundance.

"I think some of the biggest problems that face us today as a society, whether that's climate or disease, will be helped by AI solutions," he said.

"I'd be very worried about society today if I didn't know that something as transformative as AI was coming down the line."
