Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

They believe that they're so powerful, these individuals, that they can create God.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

And that by creating God, they are like this Prometheus kind of species.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

It literally is...

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

the ultimate level of narcissism and delusion of grandeur to think you can create God.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

And that then the God you create, like you're saying, Bill, is gonna be so benevolent and perfect that you constructed the perfect God that will give you your pellet, will give you your little Skinnerian,

Right.

Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

But to your point of like just taking them at their word, they actually believe that they can create God and that they'll create a God so good that it's better than humanity.

Sax, your thoughts?

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

Well, I guess the question then is why are they pushing for the let's call it red capture agenda where โ€“ I know one.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

To steel man their position for a second, I mean, I think probably the way they think about it is that they are creating something very powerful, something godlike, and therefore it needs to be safe.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

And that they care the most about that out of everybody.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

Nobody else takes this seriously.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

Remember that Anthropic was basically a spin-out of OpenAI, and they felt that Sam and the company leadership weren't taking their point of view seriously enough.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

It was the most woke portion of OpenAI.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

Yeah, we're still manning for a second.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

So they see the power of it.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

They're the ones who are concerned about safety.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

And they care the most.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

And therefore, they're in the best position to do that.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Pope vs AI, Anthropic's Digital God, AI Job Loss Narrative Flips, Open Source Crackdown Coming?

Now, I think the issue is just you can see how this can lead to red capture, right?
