    Well, I’ll be the second. Like all tools, generative AI is going to be used for good and evil purposes. Frankly, I’m not comfortable with a large corporation deciding what is and isn’t ethical for all of humanity. Ideally, it would do what the user asked it for, like all other tools, and society would work to control the bad actors, not OpenAI. Any AI doomsday scenario you can picture gets worst when one party has complete control over the AI technology.

    I think it’s important that we support unrestricted open source AI, just as it’s important we support federated social media like lemmy.

      AGI isn’t just a tool though, it’s theoretically an intelligent entity that could have its own agenda. Armed with intelligence far superior to any human, this is a potential threat. Should we not tightly control it? I know chat gpt is FAR from achieving AGI, but ethics are definitely something that will need to be addressed as the tech develops.

        If AGI is an intelligent entity far superior to humans, you can but control it. It is far more intelligent than us and instead it will control us

        Given what humankind did to itself and it surroundings maybe this is a good thing.
