In SA's conversation with Lex Fridman, he said his next step was to go out and talk to people. I am sure that this is what he meant and the people moaning about the questions just don't understand that this is what he wants to be doing. Having conversations about how it is all going to work. I really enjoyed this.

Heard TCS offered 3.5 LPA pacakge to SAM Altman.

They should have done more preparation before doing this event,
Indian leaders need to become good in asking right set of question
Leaving few, I found people didn't complete their homework before coming to the event as their could be more interesting question could be asked .

[tarunrao]

Sam should have done these conversations with common people so that he would have been excited to see the real energy

[gaganjakhotiya]

One key takeaway from this conversation for me:

Intelligence isn't special to humans, it's a fundamental property of matter.

I don't necessarily agree with latter but former definitely changes my worldview.

[kashishkumar]

The quality of questions is just amazing

The energy in this room is the reason why Elon refuses to come to India

[Fun_and_Knowledge_]

Instead of this he should have interacted with students of IIT Bombay, IIT Madras and IISC Bengaluru

Increased productivity and wealth sounds good but as in our current society it is the fair and sustainable distribution of it that matters. I’m not for or against AI. I think in the right context it is awesome and critically useful. I just think we have bigger issues we’ve been ignoring that need to be at the forefront of the conversation. I mean like what is the purpose of wealth or productivity, ultimately? What is the version of the world we actually want to create? If we don’t start with the end in mind and just think “oh we’ll increase productivity and wealth” without really digging deep to understand “but to what end” my concern is we may very well be playing to win, a losing game. Misaligned in our focus. Ultimately being very efficient and effective at goals that may not serve our greater aims.

we can interpret sam's response "you can try but its hopeless" in two ways. either he was being brutally honest or he doesn't want to encourage competition. irrespective of how hopeless it is, people would still try and eventually we would see new players including governments in this space.

Who's the female Open AI employee sitting to the right of Altman? She seems quite smart.

[abhijeetbhagat]

Satyan Gajwani, Vice Chairman of Times Internet points are good

Everybody claims that new technology revolution creates new kind of jobs that don't yet exist. That's true. But what everybody is conveniently forgetting is the fact that this is Artificial Intelligence, and not steam engine or mobile phone. This technology has the capability to intelligently think and reason (in the future), and can learn as well. These are the only features that differentiate us humans from other living beings.

For now these AI models may not be a threat to jobs in a significant manner, but surely a GPT 8 or GPT 10 will be exponentially more capable than current model. The number of jobs that will be created in future will be certainly lesser than the number of jobs that will be lost due to AI and automation. It's only a question of when!!

One of the best question ever asked..!! ❤❤ 59:24

Questions should be more specific and good, they should prepare more good questions
