Agree, but not sure what you are implying. Is it, Sam is not as concerned about risks because the expected capabilities are lower than he publicly lets on, timelines are longer than indicated and hence we should be less concerned as well?
On the one hand this is consistent with Sam’s family planning. On the other hand, other OpenAI employees that are less publicly involved and perhaps have less marginal utility from hype messaging have consistent stories (e.g. roon, https://nitter.poast.org/McaleerStephen/status/1875380842157178994#m).
Why wouldn’t AI agents or corporations led by AIs develop their own needs and wants, the way corporations do that as well currently? An economy has no need for humans, it only needs needs and scarce potential to meet those needs.
