My View on A.I.
The Ezra Klein Show19 Maalis 2023

My View on A.I.

This is something a bit different: Not an interview, but a commentary of my own.

We’ve done a lot of shows on A.I. of late, and there are more to come. On Tuesday, GPT-4 was released, and its capabilities are stunning, and in some cases, chilling. More on that in Tuesday’s episode. But I wanted to take a moment to talk through my own views on A.I. and how I’ve arrived at them. I’ve come to believe that we’re in a potentially brief interregnum before the pace of change accelerates to a rate that is far faster than is safe for society. Here’s why.

Column:

This Changes Everything” by Ezra Klein

Episode Recommendations:

Sam Altman on the A.I. revolution

Gary Marcus on the case for A.I. skepticism
