ChatGPT Creator Sam Altman Says AI Comes With Serious Risk Of Misuse And Societal Disruption
Companies are currently using ChatGPT to write codes, copywriting and content creation, customer support and preparing meeting summaries.

Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, the company behind the most popular AI chatbot ChatGPT, which generates human-like responses, is looking beyond artificial intelligence (AI). Altman recently said that if artificial general intelligence or AGI is successfully created, it has the potential to give everyone incredible new capabilities.

“This technology could help us elevate humanity by increasing abundance, turbocharging the global economy, and aiding in the discovery of new scientific knowledge that changes the limits of possibility,” Altman wrote in a blog post.

He also said that AGI would also come with serious risks of misuse, drastic accidents, and societal disruption. “Because the upside of AGI is so great, we do not believe it is possible or desirable for society to stop its development forever; instead, society and the developers of AGI have to figure out how to get it right,” Altman said in a blog post.

At some point, it may be important to get independent review before starting to train future systems, and “for the most advanced efforts to agree to limit the rate of growth of compute used for creating new models.”

“We think public standards about when an AGI effort should stop a training run, decide a model is safe to release, or pull a model from production use are important. Finally, we think it’s important that major world governments have insight about training runs above a certain scale,” Altman elaborated.

On the other hand, the general public is taking the help of AI chatbots to write essays, exams, poems and what not. According to Altman, OpenAI wants to successfully navigate massive risks.

“In confronting these risks, we acknowledge that what seems right in theory often plays out more strangely than expected in practice. We believe we have to continuously learn and adapt by deploying less powerful versions of the technology in order to minimise “one shot to get it right” scenarios,” he noted.

OpenAI is now working towards creating increasingly aligned and steerable models. “Our shift from models like the first version of GPT-3 to InstructGPT and ChatGPT is an early example of this,” he said.
