Honestly with Bari Weiss
Sam Altman on His Feud with Elon Musk—and the Battle for AI's Future

And I switched ChatGBT to be my default search in Chrome, and I have not looked back. The degree to which... that behavior changed in me for something that was really deeply ingrained. And now the fact that like when I remember the way that I used to search feels like kind of, oh man, that was like a pre-iPhone kind of equivalent. That's the sort of like level of shift that I feel about it.

That's been the most surprising change to me in the last few months. is that I do all my searching now inside of ChatGP.

I still call it search. I mean, I just like people, other people say like I chatted it or I chat. I chatted it. People say I chatted it. A lot like young people seem to just only call it chat. But I would say I just use search.

One thing that I use as a sort of my attempt at my own mental framework for it, is the rate of scientific progress. If the rate of scientific progress that's happening in the world as a whole tripled, or maybe even like 10x'd.

You know, the discoveries that we used to expect to take 10 years, and the technological progress that we used to expect to take 10 years, if that happened every year, and then we compounded on that the next one, and the next one, and the next one, that to me would feel like superintelligence had arrived, and it would, I think in many ways, change the way that society, the economy work.

What it won't change, and I think a lot of the sort of AI commentators get this wrong, is it won't change the deep fundamental human drives. And so in that sense, we've been through many technological revolutions before. Things that we tend to care about and what drive all of us, I think, change very little or maybe not at all through most of those.

You mostly summarized it properly, but I mean, it was Elon that most wanted OpenAI to be a for-profit at one point and had made a bunch of proposals that would have, and also things like OpenAI being part of Tesla, but mostly just create a new for-profit that he was going to be in control of and So other than that, I think a lot of the summary there is correct.
