OpenAI lays out plan for dealing with dangers of AI

The popularity of ChatGPT and the advance of generative AI technology has triggered a debate within the tech community about how dangerous the technology could become. Earlier this year, prominent AI leaders from OpenAI, Google and Microsoft warned the tech could pose an existential danger to human kind, on par with pandemics or nuclear weapons. Other AI researchers have said the focus on those big, frightening risks, allows companies to distract from the harmful impacts the tech is already having. A growing group of AI business leaders say the risks are overblown, and companies should charge ahead with developing the tech to help improve society -- and make money doing it.
