Switch up Los Angeles! Welcome to Love It or Leave It Live from Hollywood. I'm John Love It and let's get into it. What a week. Over the weekend, anthropic CEO Dario Amadi published a 3,800-word essay calling for the AI industry to slow down, warning of the danger of what's known as recursive self-improvement, in which AI models train and improve new A models, which may leave humans unable to control or even understand these systems. An independent intelligence we can't control or understand? Sounds like AI is at risk of becoming my wife.
Unknown 1:33
Yeah.
John Lovett 1:35
Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, and Elon Musk, the saddest, richest man in the world, echoed Amadi's concerns kicking off a debate over regulation. However, House Speaker Mike Johnson doesn't want Congress, which has so far done nothing. To do too much.
Mike Johnson 1:51
But the problem is, I'm telling you again, the the the guys who are raising the alarms right now all have very different ideas on what the guardrails should be. There's no consensus among them. And Congress is obviously less qualified than the people who are pushing this frontier to know all the ins and outs of it.
John Lovett 2:07
Awesome leadership. Also, that's an argument against any safeguards for any industry. You don't have to understand why dough rises to know that it's bad when there's glass in the fucking bread. Meanwhile, some would rather dismiss all of these warnings as some kind of psyop. On the left, that's to avoid facing how powerful AI can be by viewing this as some marketing ploy. But this isn't like when they killed Mr. Peanut in 2020 to sell more peanuts. This would be more like if Mr. Peanut Peanut wrote an essay saying that peanuts could kill us all. Sure, we'd definitely be talking about peanuts, but not in a good way. Meanwhile, on the right, the claim is that this hyperbolic language is meant to scare the government into creating regulations that will reward more established firms, which can then afford the compliance costs.
John Lovett 2:58
And this isn't just a fringe theory. Here's Vice President Jelly Delivance.
J.D. Vance 3:03
I have to say just personally, I feel a little bit weird about the fact that you have so many frontier AI tech companies kind of coming to the government and begging the government to regulate them. It feels a little bit to me like a bit of a Trojan horse.
John Lovett 3:17
It's exactly like the Trojan horse. If the Greeks who built the Trojan horse ran to Troy screaming, Watch out for that horse! There could be some guys with swords in there. Meanwhile, President Trump isn't losing any sleep over the impending AI threat. He's losing sleep because his CPAP machine is broken after he tried to put Dia Coke in the reservoir. Here's our big golfing boy.
Donald J. Trump 3:37
We're leading China in AI. We're the most sophisticated country in the world. And frankly I want to keep it that way. Because whoever wins AI wins.
John Lovett 3:45
Yes, whoever wins AI wins. And then dies. Dies a winner. Later on Air Force One, the leader of the most sophisticated country in the world was asked about his own AI use.
Chloe Melas 3:58
Have you ever used it yourself or have you been using AI, yeah. How do you use AI? But uh
Donald J. Trump 4:03
I would say you know, for the most part you can use AI for a lot of things. But you can use it for a lot of things. Right away.
John Lovett 4:09
Add it drop now if you'll excuse me, I need to go task codex to build a model for solar adoption by latitude, giving decreasing material costs so that I am ready for my meeting on permitting reform in the morning. I'm just kidding. I'm gonna make a video where I have huge muscles and eat James Tallerico like a candy apple.
