OpenAI CEO Sam Altman speaks at the World Economic Forum – watch live

Sam Altman speaks at the 'Technology in a turbulent world' event in Davos, Switzerland

[CoreyChambersLA]

No introduction is a bad idea Fareed Zaharia. Sam Altman, Jeremy Hunt, Albert Bourla, Julie Sweet, Marc Benioff

[roccococolombo]

Not giving in the introduction, at least the name of the panellist is ridiculous. I am 25 minutes in, and I still don't know who are #2, 3, 4, and 5

[tomrigo]

The only guy who appeared somewhat genuine was Altman. What a bunch of carefully choreographed corporate hypocrites.

[headofmyself]

So, Jeremy Hunt asked GPT about himself. If that is the level of expertise politicians have then we are doomed.

[felixlee]

We really should've done an introduction, I know no one except Sam Altman and Marc Benioff.

[ErnestoConfused]

What a time to be alive, huh fellow sapiens?

[hannesthurnherr]

How hard is it to edit out the first 2.5 min?

[kalixmaxwell]

Zakaria really should have asked chat gpt for questions

[mansuetarius]

1. Fareed Zakaria, CNN
2. Sam Altman, CEO OpenAI
3. Jeremy Hunt, Chancellor of Exchequer, Treasury of the UK
4. Albert Bourla, CEO Pfizer
5. Julie Sweet, CEO Accenture
6. Marc Benioff, CEO Salesforce

Put your phones down, everyone! You're completely missing the essence of being here, in the moment, experiencing this panel live. It's not just about capturing it on video. You're creating a sea of screens that blocks the view and ruins the experience for others. It's disrespectful to both the speakers and the audience who actually want to engage. Turn off your phones and truly be present, rather than hiding behind your screens like mindless zombies!

Jeremy Hunt asking a model based on old training data who the Chancellor was... doh

[MichaelMerritt]

Sam starting to go grey. What has he seen.

[ario]

Nice to know that Sam Altman thinks there could be a place for humans in the future.

[blek]

Mark Benioff recording Sam live shows the degree of internal industry respect towards OpenAI. He tried recruiting employees during the chaos but none joined.

[nkvk]

Not even an introduction. Do you see why people keep lashing out at these people who attend the WEF? Very elitist. They go there to talk to themselves. How can these people speak for the 'world'.

[melinc]

I kind of think the host was not well prepared and unfortunately did not bring out the best from the guest speakers.

[kostudas]

THEY TALKED AT BILDENDERG IN PORTUGAL IN VILLA PESTOZA AND THE SEQURITY WAS MILITARY GRADE !!! WHAT DAVOS ???
DAVOS IS JUST SEQUEL !!!

[franzbuchel]

The question is if there will be a place for us ordinary Humans or not when AI is everywhere. And if AI is serving Humanity or if Humanity has to serve the companies and individuals around AI.

[kristinabliss]

Leaning into the augmentation angle seems likely because someone has to bear responsibility for what every AI does.

[markkarake]

Zakaria didn’t start off well. Marc was not happy to be kept waiting for so long to get brought into the discussion.
