Altman says human-level AI is on the horizon

Sina Financial News On Tuesday local time, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said that artificial intelligence that reaches the human level is about to appear, but its impact on the world is far less than we imagined. Altman said that the fear that artificial intelligence will one day become so powerful that it will dramatically reshape and disrupt the world is exaggerated. Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Altman said: "It [AI] has brought much less change to the world than we thought, and it has brought much less change to work than we thought," Altman said at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Altman specifically mentioned Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). He said that artificial general intelligence could be developed "in the near future". Altman's company, which quickly entered the mainstream after publicly releasing the ChatGPT chatbot in late 2022, has been trying to assuage skeptics' concerns about how AI technology could take over society. "Artificial intelligence has yet to replace jobs on a large scale, as many economists fear, and the technology has become 'an incredible tool' in terms of productivity," he said. In November last year, Altman was fired by OpenAI's board of directors, mainly due to concerns about AI security and OpenAI's role in protecting artificial intelligence, and said it had lost confidence in Altman's leadership. After a backlash from OpenAI employees and investors, Altman was quickly reinstated.
