If only I could turn back time and have picked up all the AI modules from my computer science Bsc.. those salaries are ๐Ÿ‘€

OpenAI is saying they believe superintelligence "could arrive this decade" and "could lead to the disempowerment of humanity or even human extinction" but all we worry about is the salaries.

If they were truly concerned about those impacts they wouldn't be dedicating teams to making it happen.

Maybe they just want to avoid punishment by an omniscient AI? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roko%27s_basilisk

Hah, I didn't think of that level of planning.
