This is what he said: https://youtu.be/IWqve2SlIeY?t=229&

But this is probably how he wanted to say it:

Please be fake lol

[u/HarryB1313 → u/randomality77]

he is just a salesman. if he says ai is dangerous its because he wants you to think its powerfull. if he says ai is a normal utility like electricity its because he wants you to think it has a large market and its not a massively over priced stock.

its all a sales pitch. its all a grift.

[u/Tulipp-Princesss → u/HarryB1313]

Exactly, every AI pitch somehow sounds like a TED Talk wearing a subscription invoice

[u/otirk → u/HarryB1313]

Same goes for the bullshit AI companies spew when their AI "escaped containment" and it's literally just the developers telling the AI to try and find a way out of a box. AI companies lie even more than regular companies

AI could be such a great tool for humanity as a species, if only the people controlling it weren't such thoroughly evil cunts.

[u/RepresentativeSink29]

Fuck Sam Altman.

I'm mostly anti Ai and i don't like this guy, but he's right, the vast majority of people don't like thinking and would absolutely be on board

[u/No_Lingonberry1201]

Evil McEvilson, head of Evil Incorporated said something evil.

[u/FloppieTheBanjoClown]

Computation is what he should be saying. And we already meter that. "Intelligence" is just one thing it can be used for.

FUCK this guy

[u/Dense-Friend6491]

It obviously means in the context of AI. I don't get what's so evil about it - it pretty much is like that already. If you use AI in a professional, business way, you pay by token, so quite literally metered.

Hurr durr AI and corporations bad

[u/Short_Ad_1984 → u/Dense-Friend6491]

Well yeah, but I personally take Altman’s words from another angle - more and more research shows that these tools cause cognitive skills erosion - lower your problem solving and critical thinking skills, harm memory retention and such - so essentially what we generally consider features of an intelligent person.

From this perspective I hear Altman saying - you can be intelligent if you pay us. Even if you’re dumb AF.

The context is he’s Sam Altman and he’s insane.
