The CEO of OpenAI said that the benefits of using AI technologies justify the associated risks

The benefits of using artificial intelligence (AI) technologies generally justify the associated risks, said Sam Altman, CEO of the American company OpenAI (developed by ChatGPT chatbot). It's from sb.by.

In an interview with Politico newspaper, Sam Altman said: “We believe that the world should be prepared to accept certain negative consequences for the benefit of this technology and to keep people able to make their own decisions.” He added that he was not prepared to tolerate "truly catastrophic risks," including the possibility of "losing control of AI.".

According to Sam Altman, OpenAI previously took a softer approach to regulating AI, unlike rival Anthropic (the developer of the chatbot Claude), but began to advocate the introduction of certain restrictions after a series of incidents related to the unpredictable behavior of AI agents.
