Some AI experts have stopped saving for retirement due to fears that AI will cause human extinction, reflecting a broader concern about the potential dangers of superintelligent AI, including loss of control, misuse, and societal collapse, amid warnings that current AI development lacks sufficient safeguards.
OpenAI's Superalignment team is working on developing ways to control and govern "superintelligent" AI systems that surpass human intelligence. Led by OpenAI co-founder and chief scientist Ilya Sutskever, the team aims to build governance and control frameworks for future powerful AI systems. They are using a weaker AI model to guide a more advanced model in desirable directions. OpenAI is also launching a $10 million grant program to support research on superintelligent alignment and plans to host an academic conference on superalignment in 2025. The involvement of former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, who is funding a portion of the grant, raises questions about the availability and use of OpenAI's research.
