Rewatching this after the recent events, it is very clear that Sam is thinking more like an entrepreneur while Ilya is almost solely focused on AI safety. No wonder Ilya felt like he had to do what he did.

[Learna_Hydralis]

Presence of Ilya along with Sam made this conversation one of the best conversation of Sam's tour.

[csmith]

I feel like someone handed Ilya an espresso, and then secretly also added some Truth Serum and Prof. Cohen just asks the questions and Ilya was off to the races on every question! Such a great interview and so glad to see Sam sit back and happily let Ilya answer so much of this, deferring to Ilya's brilliance on so many things while still representing himself (Sam) and his vision and hopes for the future appropriately, but not dominated (by far, submitting) in the interview when Ilya was so passionately responding to the questions at hand.

[Japanology]

Ilya is so unusually 'excited' in this interview that the contrast between him and Sam is pretty amusing to watch.

[Carwanrasoal]

It's so nice to see Ilya talk with so much more passion compare to other talks he has done. It maight be becaosue he is at home! ⭐

[JazevoAudiosurf]

that Ilya stood up to say "AI will be here" should not be underestimated. he is obviously not talking about 10+ years but very soon

[alexmartos]

Ilya is one of the most important people alive today.

[fintech]

Definitely one of their best talks. Illya is superb in giving less filtered answers. Sam's advice at the end is also very insightful

[marbin]

I have never seen Ilya so 'excited' 🧐

[adam-t]

Sam and Ilya: <say something deeply profound.>
Interviewer: "Okay."

[CA]

Ilya is so cool..we r so fortunate to be alive to witness history being made around us!❤

[senju]

I did not like the interviewer. He just asking questions on the paper but not really responding or listening to their replies which made the whole thing a bit dry. That being said, it was great to hear Sam and Llya explain about what is coming our way.

[gol]

I like the way Ilya said the different stages of life on earth to super AI being the last, all the young people in the university are so excited that they are not going to know what's hit them until it's too late

[jackgrothaus]

This is the first panel-style interview with both Sam AND Ilya. There’s only 10k views after 24 hours. If you’re here, you’re keeping up

[Learna_Hydralis]

"You have to believe", yup believe and faith are very important to any complexity including ML field.

[fromscratch]

Is anyone else impressed by how ilya sutskever takes questions similar to his creation. Its exactly how gpt-4 finds the meaning and answers in order

[mdummy]

Faith? Very interesting answer from Ilya.

[perfectfutures]

Ilya said a lot of interesting things here, and it is good to see him so active. Still, to my sceptical mind it is not definitively clear if the answers are what he thinks is true, or what image he’d like people to have. For example, we’d need an absolutely trustworthy AI to, say, ask it to fix global warming without harming us in the process. He is fascinating to listen to as he actually made the most powerful AI yet to be deployed for wide use. That in itself is amazing. It’s like science fiction becoming reality before our eyes.

Sam seemed to me to be worried Ilya would say the wrong thing. He offers the public, positive face of all this and makes it seem normal. By comparison, Ilya looks strange and moves like a cyborg.

It all left me excited for the more powerful and useful AI to come, but wary of whatever it is that makes them look so haunted, whether it’s corporate pressure to commercialise AI or their uncertainty about alignment. They don’t seem to really have that figured out, and they’ve stopped being truly open. Closed AI certainly got great funding, but it’s a shame they aren’t helping the community and humanity more with their great invention- made from harvesting the work of humanity as it is.

Well, I suppose we aren’t living in a perfect world and some would do wrong with AI. So maybe this compromise is in fact the best of all possible worlds.
