That’s not necessarily a joke. Nobody outside of OpenAI knows how advanced the bleeding edge systems actually are. And nobody inside of OpenAI is talking about it. And obviously how advanced their future AI has become is going to be one of the most closely guarded trade secrets in the world if it hasn’t already.
So while it might’ve been intended as social commentary or humor, it is a valid concern. Be great fodder for their form, but I’m sure someone had already submitted this one — it’s possible that is even where the clever, clever comment originated.
Impersonating the creators of the AI technologies is an obvious entry point for compromise. Mr. Beast has a special offer just for you…
Remember that most arguments against AI are built on commentary and ideas of the current publicly available systems, and those systems will always be very, very far away from the cutting edge. By the time John Q. Public sees it it’s been properly sanitized, reviewed by QA, cleared for release, and permanently rule bound to stay in brand and away from inflammatory scenarios or any instability that could damage the company — so very much of what is happening with AI will for these reasons never see the light of day. And yet, everyone is an expert because of the systems that see the light of day as if they were keeping up with the cutting edge.
They are not. They are experts in what has been chosen to be shown.
It is fiction and we fool ourselves into thinking we know what is actually going on as outside parties, but many business incentives and the military industrial complexes of every large country on the planet are aligned differently.
And I’m sure there are compartments for information management inside of a company working on this kind of thing. Companies can pretend to be omnipotent and ignore the realities of globalized geopolitics and even pretend to have no interest, but geopolitics is very interested in keeping up with them.

What I’m saying is hardly controversial. As Christopher Mims wrote: > If you’re worried that artificial intelligence will transform your job, insinuate itself into your daily routines, or lead to wars fought with lethal autonomous systems, you’re a little late—all of those things have already come to pass.
