Amodei elaborated on the risks, suggesting that there’s a significant chance of encountering severe negative outcomes on a scale that could impact human civilization.
Despite these concerns, he also pointed out the positive potential of AI, including its capability to treat cancer, prolong human life, and address issues like mental illness by mitigating its adverse effects.
