00:07welcome thanks for having me great to have you Sam it's interesting because people have been
00:12talking about the potential downsides or serious risks of AI for some time and I think a lot of
00:20people have been saying why is this the moment where it sort of escaped the bubble and is now
00:25all of a sudden an international topic of such intensity and I think a few things have happened
00:33one the models have gotten so good and people for a long time looked at the models maybe they
00:40looked at the rate of progress but I don't think people really felt that the models were going to
00:44come this far this fast we will get it right by the way I am very confident in our I
00:52think the
00:53biggest thing that has changed is this thing that our industry has been talking about for a while
00:57which is no no this technology this approach is going to go very far these models are in some
01:03ways going to become more capable smarter than people that finally happened so I think that was
01:09a big change to why now when people say you know my probability of doom is X or Y or
01:14whatever it hits
01:16in a different way to do somebody else wants to build like a hacking bot okay the world can decide
01:21what they think about that but I think you also see a real fear that some of these companies or
01:30some
01:30companies developing AI could get too much power and be able to sort of exert undue influence on the
01:37economy push a worldview out on people and I think the world is right to be afraid of this so
01:43we have
01:43these two big challenges we have the potential of a loss of control accident or some other serious
01:48thing that could go wrong we have the potential of way too much power concentration and people fear
01:54that those developing AI could exert their worldview and there is a sort of narrow path we have to
02:00navigate with pragmatism with you know steadiness with the ability for the the world to like trust that
02:10we will make dependable decisions consistent decisions through this and I think people are saying well you
02:17know this now seems pretty important like let's let's get it right I'm not gonna get the days of the
02:23week exactly right here but something on like a Friday or a Saturday these models have gotten so good so
02:28fast that we need to treat the alignment and monitoring and security with a new level of rigor and we
02:35have to
02:35be willing to pace our development of capabilities such that capabilities always such that alignment safety and
02:44monitoring are always ahead of capabilities and the hugging face incident triggered a real reset not
02:50just in our own company but I think the whole industry you know we're in the cyber area today but
02:55maybe we
02:55move into another area is this a fair way to characterization or am I or is this unfair to characterize
03:02it like this what I
03:03really care about is that we have got a great culture of accident reporting and learning I think if we
03:09look at what happens with the FAA and the NTSB and how safe airplanes have gotten as I understand it
03:14from talking to people who have really studied you know new kinds of technology on the order of magnitude of
03:19airplanes
03:20one of the things that has gone so well there is is the culture of accident reporting you know accidents
03:27are going to happen we're going to learn as much as we can and react from each one
03:31um and if you know there's other kinds of technology where I don't think it's gone I don't think society's
03:39had the same response and I don't think we have improved as much to pull this thing together and present
03:46you with the information to make a decision or to blame
03:48I think this is one of the most profound changes to how we use technology that I've ever seen
03:56I mean sci-fi movies as you mentioned have been hinting at this or playing around with this for a
04:00long time
04:01but this is one of those moments where it feels like you're in the movie like the sci-fi thing
04:05came true
04:06you're talking to your personal super assistant and you are working ten times faster or better or more creatively than
04:12you could have before
04:14Sam you're invited back anytime you want to Dreamforce
04:17hold on thank you very much thank you
04:20please thank Sam Altman
