Just finished reading “Empire of AI” by Karen Hao, the story of the rise of OpenAI, how it went from non-profit to for-profit, and the insane speed with which AI has become so pervasive. Strikes the right tone of caution re: safety and governance. The multi-billion dollar investments and valuations of these companies is mad. Their theft of data, erosion of privacy and desire to rule the world is chilling. Good read especially if you’re interested in the topic but remain skeptical of those running it.

A #MustWatchVideo 🚨
When longtime AI expert and journalist Karen Hao first began covering OpenAI in 2019, she thought they were the good guys. Founded as a nonprofit with safety enshrined as its core mission, it was meant, its leader Sam Altman told us, to act as a check against more purely market forces. But the core truth of this massively disruptive sector is that it requires an unprecedented amount of proprietary resources: the ‘compute’ power of scarce high-end chips, the sheer volume of data that needs to be amassed at scale, the humans on the ground ‘cleaning it up’ for sweatshop wages throughout the Global South, and a truly alarming spike in the need for energy and water underlying everything. We have entered a new, ominous age of empire with OpenAI setting a breakneck pace, as a small group of the most valuable companies in human history try to chase it down. In exhilarating prose and with unparalleled access to those closest to Sam Altman, Hao recounts the meteoric rise of OpenAI and shows us the sinister impact that this industry is having on society.
"#KarenHao joins Scientific American to discuss her new book #EmpireOfAI, exploring how companies like #OpenAI wield power that is reminiscent of historical empires. From ideological quests for artificial general intelligence to the environmental toll of massive #dataCenters, Hao reveals the hidden forces shaping our technological future—and the reasons we should all be paying attention."
