Boss of OpenAI calls for a regulatory light touch because of the ‘good stuff’ the technology can deliver
The chief executive of OpenAI cited hacks, scams and “other bad things that will happen” in an interview that sparked an instant backlash from critics of the big AI companies. His comments came after one of his company’s safety experts resigned, saying at the weekend that its “culture is broken”.
In an interview released on Monday, Altman was asked about how OpenAI’s approach to safety differed from that of Anthropic, which has called for the industry to slow down after one of its researchers quit, warning that AI experts believed “it could kill us all by the end of the decade”.
“I think there’s a lot of daylight,” Altman said. “One of the differences between us and some of the stricter AI safety people is that we believe that the world should accept some bad things happening for the benefits of this technology and people having the agency [to use AI widely].
Sounds a lot like what Charlie Kirk said about guns…
“Many of you will die, and that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make!”
I’m really sick and tired of accepting ‘bad things’
Dear Sam Altman,
Fuck you.
Sincerely,
The People
What are the benefits, Sam?
He didn’t say they’re benefits for us. There are plenty of benefits for Sam. And we’re a sacrifice he’s willing to make.
If you want to make an omelette, you’re going to have to break a couple eggs. The eggs are yours, by the way. And the omelette is going to destroy your house when I cook it. And I’m not going to pay you for anything. In fact, pay me for the eggs.
The modern day Three Little Pigs fable
The benefits now accrue to the tops of pyramids. Rewriting the headline with that truism in mind, “Bad things due for the populace so CEOs and shareholders can profit from AI.”
He can’t even articulate a point. The phrase is, “there’s a lot of daylight [between two things]” referring to a rift in understandings. You don’t just say “there’s a lot of daylight”, that just means it’s daytime.
He can’t even articulate a point.
Guess that’s pretty much the standard for these guys.
You have to listen to him in LLM augmented mode (pro feature). It fills in the next most likely words by default.
He uses AI all the time, he’s shared many stories of his daily usage of it.
It’s surprising he can even still form an independent thought tbh.
Big tech CEO probably the easiest job to replace with an LLM.
Oh, the sheer irony that the merch𝙰𝙸nt is the biggest meat proxy of them all 😂😂
Se he’s willing to accept a [REDACTED] to the head for pushing AI slop?
I misread Sam as Scam and I thought it was too funny to not share
Sounds similar to “some people will need to die in order for the rest of us to keep guns”
Now if only someone could expedite the swift ending the asshole who said that last thing got for this current asshole.
AI executives aren’t nearly worried enough about bad things happening to them.
Sure, I’ll accept every bad thing that happens to Altman
Yeah so that he can enrich himself. Hope your AI bites you in the ass Altman.
Accept bad things in return for bad things that make me rich.
