Sutskever strikes AI gold with billion-dollar backing for superintelligent AI
Top venture firms back SSI to develop "safe" AI with teams in Palo Alto and Tel Aviv.
@arstechnica big IBM in Nazi Germany vibes.
@arstechnica this pretty much perfectly represents what’s wrong with the world. People are starving and sleeping in the street, but a 3 month old company with no product. Is “worth” 5 billion dollars. I hate this place.
@arstechnica hopefully they will spend lots of money building clean datasets for training
@noplasticshower @arstechnica
With a lil luck he'll cut a billion dollar check and disappear so we don't need to deal with the environmental ramifications of this company wasting our time and resources on a product they won't ever make.
@zestybasilpizza @arstechnica he can build 8 world class models for $1B. He only needs to build one.
@arstechnica And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space
'Cause there's bugger-all down here on Earth!
@arstechnica machines may be learning, but some people are just making the same mistakes over and over
@arstechnica I trust this guy as much as I trust Altman, which is to say not even a teeny tiny, itty bitty little bit. But, I don’t have vast sums of unearned wealth to give away so no one cares what I think
@arstechnica This is hilarious.
