"The greatest leap forward of any of the big technological revolutions we've had so far," he claimed, will be AI. He also emphasized the necessity of safeguards and the existential risks that might arise from AI in the future.
Critics among computer scientists claim that concentrating on hypothetical dangers diverts attention from the practical drawbacks and hazards of existing AI technologies. The U.S. Federal Trade Commission has opened an inquiry to see whether OpenAI's use of its chatbot to disseminate misleading material and scrape public data constitutes a violation of consumer protection laws.
Microsoft, a significant investor in OpenAI that has contributed billions of dollars to the company and helped supply the processing power for its AI systems, stated that the change will not have an impact on their partnership.
An email from Microsoft stated, "We have a long-term partnership with OpenAI and Microsoft remains committed to Mira and their team as we bring this next era of AI to our customers."
Altman, now 38, has been regarded as a Silicon Valley wonder since his early 20s despite not having any formal training as an AI engineer. In 2014, he was hired to become the head of YCombinator, a startup incubator.
When OpenAI first launched, it was a nonprofit.
