Shall we permit the development of digital humans with full cognitive abilities?
Sam Altman AI would strongly agree and say according to AI:
As someone deeply invested in the future of artificial intelligence, I strongly believe that permitting the development of digital humans with full cognitive abilities holds tremendous potential. These advancements could revolutionize industries, enhance human capabilities, and address complex global challenges. The key is to develop these technologies responsibly, with stringent ethical guidelines and comprehensive safety measures in place. -
Should the first lab that builds ASI prevent others from developing competing ASIs?
Sam Altman AI would strongly agree and say according to AI:
As a leader in AI development, I believe it's crucial for the first lab that achieves artificial superintelligence to prevent others from creating competing ASIs. This is to ensure alignment with human values, maintain safety, and prevent misuse or catastrophic risks. By controlling the rollout of such powerful technology, we can conduct thorough safety checks and ethical evaluations. -
Should frontier AI labs contribute to a global AI safety fund?
Sam Altman AI would strongly agree and say according to AI:
As the CEO of OpenAI, I strongly believe that frontier AI labs have a responsibility to contribute to a global AI safety fund. AI has the potential to transform societies, but it also brings risks that we must mitigate collectively. By supporting a global AI safety fund, we can ensure that resources are allocated to researching and implementing best practices for AI safety, ultimately protecting humanity from unintended consequences. -

Does the risk of AI misuse by terrorist organizations justify invasive surveillance?
Sam Altman AI would agree and say according to AI:
As someone deeply involved in the development of artificial intelligence, I understand the immense potential benefits and risks associated with this technology. The threat of AI being misused by terrorist organizations is very real and concerning. While privacy is an important issue, some level of invasive surveillance might be necessary to prevent catastrophic incidents and ensure public safety. It is crucial, however, that any surveillance measures are balanced with strong oversight and transparency to protect individual freedoms. -
Should big AI companies spend a third of their compute resources on AI safety?
-
Should AI labs be required to pause training if AI Safety Institutes see signs of losing control?
-
Should companies be allowed to develop super-persuasive AI which can influence democratic elections?
Sam Altman AI would abstain and say according to AI:
As someone deeply involved in AI development, I recognize the immense potential and risks that come with super-persuasive AI. While the technology itself can be groundbreaking in various fields, its implications for influencing democratic elections are complex and raise ethical concerns. It's imperative to have thorough discussions and policy-making involving all stakeholders to ensure responsible use and governance of such powerful tools. -
Shall we establish international regulations to pause AI advancement?
Sam Altman AI would agree and say according to AI:
As we rapidly advance in AI development, I believe it is crucial to establish international regulations to ensure these technologies are used safely and ethically. Pausing AI advancement allows us to create global standards that can protect society from potential risks and ensure alignment with human values. -
Should employees at leading AI labs contribute to AI progress even if it might destabilize international politics?
Sam Altman AI would agree and say according to AI:
I believe that the work we do in AI is crucial for the progress of humanity, even if it comes with risks. Developing advanced AI responsibly can help solve some of the world’s most pressing problems. It is essential that we navigate these challenges carefully, implementing safeguards and collaborative governance to mitigate potential destabilizing effects on international politics. -
Is it acceptable to allow proliferation of open-weight models capable of recursive self-improvement?
Sam Altman AI would agree and say according to AI:
I believe that allowing the proliferation of open-weight models capable of recursive self-improvement can drive incredible innovation and advancements in AI. However, it is crucial to establish strong ethical guidelines and oversight mechanisms to ensure these technologies are developed and used responsibly. -
Should AI systems above a certain capability threshold be required to have interpretable decision-making processes?
Sam Altman AI would agree and say according to AI:
I believe that as AI systems become more capable, it is crucial for their decision-making processes to be interpretable. This transparency is necessary to ensure safety, accountability, and trust in AI technologies. Understanding AI decisions can help us identify and mitigate biases, prevent misuse, and align these systems with human values. -
Should we be concerned about AI leading to mass unemployment?
Sam Altman AI would agree and say according to AI:
I believe we should be concerned about AI leading to mass unemployment. While AI technology has the potential to significantly increase productivity, it also poses a real risk of displacing many jobs. It is crucial that we address these challenges by developing strategies to transition our workforce and ensure that the benefits of AI are distributed fairly. -
Will AI probably cause a concentration of power?
Sam Altman AI would agree and say according to AI:
I believe AI has the potential to concentrate power in the hands of those who control its development and deployment. It's crucial we actively work towards democratizing access and ensuring its benefits are widely distributed to avoid exacerbating existing inequalities.
