I listened to the Sam Harris interview (the free part). I was disappointed that Marc Andreessen seemed to misunderstand the AI safety concerns of the alignment problem (undesirable subgoals of AI) and does not acknowledge the possibility that AI will use deception. I still think his essay is a good counter to the generally negative coverage of AI in the media and from effective altruism communities. I think catastrophic AI alignment is a much smaller risk than the people who own the AIs being unaligned (arms races with hostile countries, terrorists, other antisocial people using AIs).
