Sam Altman (ChatGPT) tells future generations: "They'll never be smarter than AI, and they won't care."

Since the emergence of ChatGPT, Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, has become one of the leading and most respected voices on Artificial Intelligence and the use and impact this technology has and will have on our lives.

And now that the tycoon has recently become a father, it's clear that his perspective on AI has changed, and he no longer thinks only about its present, but also about the future and how this technology will shape who we are and what we do.

It was during a talk for OpenAI's own podcast, where Altman, along with other personalities from the company and the AI ​​world, made several revelations that drew a lot of attention. For example, he admitted that he used ChatGPT to learn how to raise his newborn baby.

At the same time, he also reflected on the new generations and their relationship with AI, since we have had to learn (and continue to do so) to apply its tools in our daily lives, but the Queventi children being born now will be natives in AI, which means that everything they learn will already be with this technology.

This suggests that the relationship future generations will have with AI will be different from the one we have today. Among other things, as Altman acknowledges, is the fact that "My children will never be smarter than AI." This is something to consider, because even though AI's abilities may surprise us, it still has many flaws, and we still have to ensure it doesn't fail or make mistakes.

But over the years, their responses and results will improve, and as a result, they will be able to outperform us . Hence, the question arose as to how children will feel about the fact that there is something smarter than them, to which Altman replied, "I don't think my children will ever be bothered by the fact that they are not smarter than the AI."

Among other conversations held during this interview, the CEO of OpenAI acknowledged that AI will bring negative aspects: "I suspect it's not all going to be good. There will be problems. People will develop these somewhat problematic—or, perhaps, very problematic—parasocial relationships, and, well, society will have to find new limits. But the benefits will be enormous."

And he issued a warning to those who blindly trust this technology: "People trust ChatGPT a lot, which is interesting, because AI is amazing. It should be a technology that people don't trust so much," he concludes.
