Sam Altman has this great quote about Elon Musk that he gave the New Yorker years ago where he said, Elon Musk desperately wants to save the world, but only if he can be the one to save it.
I don't know, Sam Altman.
I kind of get similar feelings about him.
Like, I do think he has these really lofty visions of how he thinks AI can improve the lives of many people and change the world in a positive way.
I think it's really important to him that he is deeply involved in that effort.
Yeah, Will Knight published in AI Lab, his AI newsletter this week, a little piece.
The whole bottom of his newsletter is new research that's coming out.
And it's actually really, really interesting.
But one thing that caught my eye this week was that he talked about what we know so far about regulatory capture in the AI industry and how AI companies are really involved in shaping and slowing regulations, which is something that I think is on one level obvious, but now we're actually seeing data to back it up.
It's so much money.
And we're not even talking about Anthropic at this point, which borderline valuation could be even higher than open AIs on any given day.
I personally loved on Wednesday when OpenAI brought a small statue of a donkey's ass to court and tried to include that in the official record.
The judge said, I don't want it.
We can talk about it, but please don't give it to me because then the court has to take possession of it.
Apparently, Elon Musk, when he left, had a tense interaction with an OpenAI employee and called the employee, I think it's the current chief futurist of OpenAI or something like that, a jackass.
And then this guy's colleagues gave him the trophy as a joke.
Now it's part of the official record.
So I love that.
Since we're still talking about the people that he is going to China with, what do we know about why Jensen Huang was left off the list and then re-added last minute?
Because my thought when I saw it was, oh, this is about export controls.
