OpenAI CEO Altman Claims Human-Level AI is Imminent, But Its Actual Impact Will Be Relatively Small
-
Recently, Sam Altman, CEO of the U.S. AI startup OpenAI, shared his views on the future of artificial intelligence. He noted that human-level artificial intelligence is on the horizon, but its impact on the world will be far less significant than many anticipate.
At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Altman emphasized that Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) could be developed in the "relatively near future." However, he cautioned against overestimating AI's potential impact. Despite significant advancements in AI technology, its actual influence on transforming the world and work remains relatively modest.
As the leader of OpenAI, Altman has consistently worked to alleviate concerns about AI technology. He stated that current AI has not replaced jobs on the massive scale feared by economists. Instead, AI has become a powerful tool for enhancing productivity. Although Altman's remarks have sparked some controversy, he remains optimistic about the future of Artificial General Intelligence.
