#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

But I wouldn't say any of this stuff with certainty, like we're deep into the unknown here.

#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

For me, a system that cannot go significantly add to the sum total of scientific knowledge we have access to, kind of discover, invent, whatever you want to call it, new fundamental science, is not a superintelligence.

#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

And

Lex Fridman Podcast
#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

To do that really well, I think we will need to expand on the GPT paradigm in pretty important ways that we're still missing ideas for.

#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

Look, if an oracle told me far from the future that GPT-10 turned out to be a true AGI somehow, maybe just some very small new ideas, I would be like, okay, I can believe that.

#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

Not what I would have expected sitting here and would have said a new big idea, but I can believe that.

#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

The thing that I am so excited about with this is not that it's a system that kind of goes off and does its own thing, but that it's this tool that humans are using in this feedback loop.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

Helpful for us for a bunch of reasons.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

We get to, you know, learn more about trajectories through multiple iterations.

#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

But I am excited about a world where AI is an extension of human will and a amplifier of our abilities and this like, you know, most useful tool yet created.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

And that is certainly how people are using it.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

And I mean, just like look at Twitter, like the results are amazing.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

People's like self-reported happiness with getting to work with this are great.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

So, yeah, maybe we never build AGI, but we just make humans super great.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

Still a huge win.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

Yeah, and maybe that you create, like, you know, in a day of programming, you have one really important idea.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

Yeah.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#367 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI

And that's the contribution.
