ChatGPT Can Now Call the Cops, but 'Wait till 2100 for Full Job Impact' - Altman

From the creator

Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, announced a set of new ‘protections’ and ‘privileges’ for ChatGPT users, requiring a significant amount of trust from users. From predicting your age based on your chat to calling law enforcement if you are at risk of harm, to allowing non-minors to flirt. But amidst all of these announcements, there are interview snippets you may have missed, as Altman dramatically revises his predictions of AI impact on jobs. Plus a Hassbis backtrack to boot. https://80000hours.org/aiexplained AI Insiders ($9!): https://www.patreon.com/AIExplained Chapters: 00:00 - Introduction 00:33 - Calling the Cops?
