Famed investor Marc Andreessen just lately talked about conferences with Biden administration workers who gave him the impression they wished to regulate AI by working intently with two or three large AI firms, shutting everybody else out via burdensome rules.
Andreessen didn’t title OpenAI, however it was implied it might have been a beneficiary of this alleged effort. Nevertheless, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman dismissed Andreessen’s feedback as “conspiracy concept” in a podcast this week with Bari Weiss.
“I imply, we have been in a room with them, and different firms and the administration, however by no means like, ‘Right here’s our conspiracy concept, we’re going to make it so only some firms can construct AI after which it’s a must to do what we are saying.’ By no means something like that,” Altman stated.
Both approach, Altman and different large tech leaders are transferring on quick from the Biden administration, donating thousands and thousands to Trump’s inaugural fund.
