Famed investor Marc Andreessen not too long ago talked about conferences with Biden administration workers who gave him the impression they needed to manage AI by working carefully with two or three large AI firms, shutting everybody else out by burdensome rules.
Andreessen didn’t identify OpenAI, however it was implied it could have been a beneficiary of this alleged effort. Nevertheless, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman dismissed Andreessen’s feedback as “conspiracy principle” in a podcast this week with Bari Weiss.
“I imply, we had been in a room with them, and different firms and the administration, however by no means like, ‘Right here’s our conspiracy principle, we’re going to make it so just a few firms can construct AI after which it’s a must to do what we are saying.’ By no means something like that,” Altman stated.
Both means, Altman and different large tech leaders are shifting on quick from the Biden administration, donating tens of millions to Trump’s inaugural fund.
