The bad thing is, just because Andrew Ng states this, doesn't make it true or the possibility of dangers less relevant. There are people outside of big businesses like Hinton who also warn, even though he is not part of "big companies" anymore.

Also, what is all of this about? In the end there are multiple scenarios in which ways AI can harm society. It probably won't be about Terminator rising. On the other hand precausions revolve around the fact that we actually don't really know, because this technology is so new.

I also don't think that "big companies" like OpenAI even need to shut down smaller businesses, because - as Sam Altman stated - incoming money really isn't any issue for them at all. They are drowning in money.

While there are certainly people who only care for money and other kinds of status symbols, I still believe that many people working within those companies actually try to be truthful about their work as individuals.
