President Joe Biden became more afraid of real-world artificial intelligence technology after watching Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Deputy White House chief of staff Bruce Reed has revealed President Joe Biden became more afraid of artificial intelligence technology after watching Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One. The United States president signed an executive order this week pertaining to security, safety, and privacy when it comes to AI use.
Now, Variety reports that Mission: Impossible 7's AI threat also informed Biden's worries about the technology. In the film, Tom Cruise's Ethan Hunt is trying to destroy the Entity, a powerful, sentient AI program a terrorist organization is trying to take control of. The timeliness of the villain and political concerns over the rapidly-developing technology may have influenced the President's recent executive order.
Could Mission: Impossible's Entity Become A Real-World Threat? While the antagonist from Ethan's latest mission is fictitious, the existence of AI technology in real life makes it possible for something like it to become reality. The Entity is able to manipulate technologies around the world of its own free will, having achieved sentience despite being developed as a weapon. By the end of Mission: Impossible 7, Ethan still has to contend with locating and destroying the AI.
Given the rapid development of AI in real life during 2023, it's possible the technology could become conscious of itself in the future. However, many programs like ChatGPT require human input to work, only performing actions based on the command and programming employed by people. This means that dangers like the ones faced by the IMF are unlikely to transpire anytime soon.
However, Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One still offers a disturbing glimpse into the future of AI technology, which Biden's executive order no doubt hopes to prevent. Since Mission: Impossible 8 will likely expand on the idea, perhaps the movie will further inform on how the technology could be used in the future. With issues surrounding AI quickly becoming even more important, it remains to be seen how its real-world development will continue going forward.
