OpenAI’s Sam Altman Embraces ChatGPT in India, Set to Meet PM Modi

OpenAI CEO, Sam Altman, has arrived in India as part of his six-nation tour to discuss the future and development of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Altman praised India’s acceptance and enthusiasm towards ChatGPT and expressed the need to reduce ChatGPT’s hallucinations and give users more control over the system. He also stressed the hypothetical risk that the technology may have already done some irreversible damage that was not predicted. Altman urged for government or industry-led AI regulation infrastructure and advocated for nationally funded AI efforts. Altman is scheduled to meet the Indian prime minister Narendra Modi and praised India’s potential in national tech, suggesting that the government should integrate AI into other services. Altman also expressed optimism that the G20, led by India, can play a significant role in the global discourse regarding AI regulation.
