OpenAI CEO Sam Altman warns of extinction risk from AI with critics questioning hype

Date:

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has joined over 350 industry experts in signing a statement, published by the Center for AI Safety, warning of risk of extinction from AI. However, some critics question if the threat is just another example of AI hype. The statement follows a similar warning by the Future of Life Institute, funded by Elon Musk, which called for a six-month pause on the development of AI led by ChatGPT, Microsoft, and Google to evaluate risks and build guardrails. While some argue the warnings distract from present AI problems such as misinformation and propaganda, others point to the lack of robust policies globally.
