Lisan al Gaib @scaling01 · 4h Dario Amodei CEO of Anthropic at Davos: "Some of the companies are essentially led by people who have a scientific background, that's my background, that's Demis' background, some of them are led by the generation of entrepreneurs that did social media. There's a long tradition of scientists thinking about the effects of the technology they built, of thinking of themselves as having responsibility for the technology they built. Not ducking responsibility. They are motivated in the first place by creating something for the world. So they worry in the cases that something can go wrong. I think the motivation of entrepreneurs, particularly the generation of the social media entrepreneurs are very different [...] The way they interacted, you could say manipulated consumers is very different. I think that leads to different attitudes." > QUOTED: Lisan al Gaib @scaling01 · 4h > Dario Amodei at Davos: > - "Google and OpenAI are fighting it out in consumer" > - "Demis is a great guy, I'm rooting for him" > x.com/scaling01/stat...
