Here’s what OpenAI’s CEO has to say about tech telecommuting
Sam Altman, the brain behind OpenAI and its popular product ChatGPT, now says the pandemic is over and so is the era of remote work. Altman clearly believes that having people come into the office and work in person can be a catalyst for new product creation.
He feels that remote working causes confusion when people meet virtually and discuss plans. Altman spoke at a session hosted by Stripe, where he noted that for a business to allow full remote operations, you need the technology to advance, and he says that hasn’t happened yet.
That’s not all, he feels that working at home is good in some areas, but mostly an experiment. “I think one of the biggest mistakes in the tech industry for a long time was that everyone (thought) they could go completely remote forever, and startups didn’t have to be together. There was no loss of creativity. I would say the experiment with that is over and the technology is not yet good enough for people to be completely remote forever, especially in startups,” he mentioned in a session this week.
Altman and Co. have been busy shaping the future of AI in the industry, and he’s had a lot of help from a giant like Microsoft. But in recent weeks, many advocates have expressed concern about the rise of artificial intelligence and how it could affect humanity.
Google saw AI godfather Geoffrey Hinton leave the company and ended his journey with a word of warning about the scope of AI.
He claimed that leaving Google will allow him to speak freely about the dangers of AI and warn the world about its dangers without Google’s hindrances. Meanwhile, Altman and his team are building ChatGPT into a major force that is already miles ahead of the competition. The AI chatbot now supports third-party plugins that use the Internet to browse responses.
