Cami Clark—who started what she called a ‘revolutionary porn company’ where she sought investment from Jeffrey Epstein—keeps a low profile but is a key adviser to the AI chief. Its coming IPO could top trillions.

As soon as they go public it will be lets maximise shareholder value. It is horrifying how much power these private companies have these days and how evil they have become. Morals basically don't exist with them and their are no consequences. This is why I don't like AI though it does improve programming by leaps that even people who don't know how to code can make a fully working application. If the trend continues and people depend on AI for programming these companies will have big influence over the world, look at what happened with the international court, they depended too much on US technology.
There needs to be regulations on AI and people still need to learn programming even if you depend on AI for most task. We can't give these companies our ability to program too.
Yeah I totally agree with you. From what I've seen only China has enacted sensible and quick regulations. Found this website regulations.ai.
I believe / hope that AI pushes the abilities humans need upwards. Like there is AI that can do character animation, but you still need a motion choreographer who interprets the script and tweaks the AI and has the words and thinking and creativity for character animation. Same for programming, you still need to design the shape of the program and unit tests and understand the architecture.
But with every progress a larger percentage of people will be replaced and their labor not valuable any more. It's either socialism and planned economy either with or without free market or bust.
One hope I have is that we'll also be able to use AI and advanced robotics for "subsistence living". There are apparently humanoid robots for $6000 in China now. And once smartphones and AI are good enough you could use one as a "control module". We might also build robots much easier out of wood and servos in the future, because other machine learning models allow control of very "imprecise" robots. And then if we're not prevented by IP law "we" as individual or groups of people could also directly benefit from the free labor. And the more advanced these AI models become, the more we could liberating ourselves from wage slavery.
