Today – The Interview: The video podcast with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman in full length
The head of the startup behind ChatGPT warns of dangers in the AI race and uncontrollable models, talks about his dismissal from OpenAI – and proves to be surprisingly private.
He leads one of the most important AI startups in the world and is the face behind ChatGPT: Sam Altman, CEO and co-founder of OpenAI. He rarely gives interviews to German media in this depth, but for our first episode of "Today - the interview", he agreed to meet with our Silicon Valley correspondent Felix Holtermann for 45 minutes for a video podcast.
The entire video interview in English: In the race for the best AI model, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman warns not to ignore the dangers of technology. "We should only develop models that we can also control," Altman says. Recently, a model from OpenAI itself broke out of its test environment and penetrated the systems of the AI platform Hugging Face.
