OpenAI CEO: Humanity is heading towards self-destruction and artificial intelligence is the solution

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman believes humanity is on the road to self-destruction and proposes artificial intelligence as a solution

"If we want to prosper for tens of millions, hundreds of millions or billions of years, we need technology," Altman said Wednesday during a panel discussion at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in San Francisco.

Also participating in the panel discussion were other tech executives, including Meta Chief Product Officer Chris Cox and Google Senior Vice President James Manyika. Both Meta and Google have products that compete with OpenAI.

Altman said current AI models don’t require big regulatory changes, but they will soon.

He said: "We don't need strict regulation, and future generations may not need it. But at some point, when a model can provide the output equivalent to the entire company, the entire country or the entire world, Maybe we do need some collective oversight."

Altman has previously called for regulation of very powerful artificial intelligence models, which some technology experts fear could be controlled by their creators. Earlier this year, Altman said the U.S. and other governments should consider regulating products that "exceed critical capability thresholds."
