Sam Altman is building his utopia, whether you want it or not
. It's rooted in the idea that the human race could be snuffed out by any number of existential threats. To keep the lights on, longtermists believe there's an urgent need to advance space travel, biotechnology, and human-friendly artificial intelligence.
Altman told Insider that his thinking had evolved since those posts."I am now very much in the AI-will-be-a-tool camp, though I do think future humans and human society will be extremely different and we have a chance to be thoughtful about how to design that future." He'll have plenty of chances to refine his messaging. After years of developing his projects largely out of sight, he's begun taking his show on the road. In January, he traveled to Washington to allay lawmakers' fears about AI. This spring, he's made himself unusually available for on-air interviews and magazine profiles. And this summer, he'll embark on a worldwide listening tour to hear from developers and users of OpenAI's product.
"I don't think OpenAI or any other tech company should be making some of the decisions that we are currently on a trajectory to be making," Altman told Insider."Something like this should be a government project, and in a different time in US history it would've been.
Regardless, Altman's reputation in the Valley remains as a bleeding-heart liberal. In April, Musk once again presented himself as Altman's foil, introducing plans for a chatbot called"TruthGPT," the anti-woke version of ChatGPT.
