Uncapped #13 | Sam Altman from OpenAI

This was a fun one! Sam is my brother and the CEO of a small company in SF called OpenAI. I’m glad he was able to take time out of his busy schedule to give me a hard time and share his thoughts on the future of AI.

We covered:

• AI discovering new science
• The risk of superintelligence
• What’s after reasoning
• Humans needing humans
• The latest with OpenAI
• Meta / Scale AI news
• Plenty of brotherly banter
