Comment: We should not take every word of Sam Altman, Elon Musk or Dario Amodei at face value
No question: AI is one of the most important technologies of humanity. But that's no reason for us to think that the CEOs of the development companies know everything better.
Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, has warned that AI incidents will occur. Elon Musk, head of xAI, predicts that within five years, artificial intelligence will surpass human intelligence and view humans similarly to how we view chimpanzees. Dario Amodei, founder of Anthropic, forecasts the emergence of an AGI, a human-level AI, this year or next, describing a future with a highly advanced AI.
These predictions should be treated with caution, as terms like AGI and superintelligence have distinct meanings. Musk envisions a future of abundance with AI, where money will no longer be relevant.
