Sam Altman on the Internet

AI will probably most likely lead to the end of the world, but in the meantime, there’ll be great companies.

It is a failure of human imagination and human arrogance to assume that we will never build things smarter than ourselves.

I assume you are on the Internet. If you are not, then pardon my French, but vous êtes un big loser. Today EVERYBODY is on the Internet, including the primitive Mud People of the Amazon rain forest. In the old days, when the Mud People needed food, they had to manually throw spears at wild boars; whereas today they simply get on the Internet, go to www.spear-a-boar.com and click their mouse a few times (the Mud People use actual mice). Within three business days, a large box is delivered to them by a UPS driver, whom they eat.
