This morning the Department of Homeland Security announced the establishment of the Artificial Intelligence Safety and Security Board. The 22 inaugural members include Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, Jensen Huang, Satya Nadella, Sundar Pichai and many others.
The AISSB will 'develop recommendations to prevent and prepare for AI-related disruptions to critical services that impact national or economic security, public health, or safety.'
According to Axios HSS Mayorkas met with Mr Altman at OpenAI headquarters and personally asked him to join the board. Mayorkas also said he intentionally excluded Elon and Zuck because they run 'social media companies'. axios.com/2024/04/26/alt…
@AndrewCurran_ So they include Adobe, IBM and Delta but exclude Elon and Zuck. Amazing.
@AndrewCurran_ Wow. AI safety is most important for those with the most GPU compute and data (meta and Tesla and x) while they include other companies that have neither. I hope they don't come up with regulations that target burdening social media companies 🤔
@AndrewCurran_ Coincidence that Zuck supports open-source AI and was left off?
@AndrewCurran_ Wait doesnt microsoft own linkedin? And google is as close to social media as they could be
@AndrewCurran_ Big mistake to exclude Elon and Zuck. Big mistake! completely off track.
@AndrewCurran_ Elon Musk is concerned and predicted how advanced AI could wipeout humanity. If anything, they should definitely add him to the safety board before anyone else.
@AndrewCurran_ America is quickly becoming an enemy nation, if it isn’t already. The American government is increasingly the party against freedom and the party against its own people. Plan accordingly.
@AndrewCurran_ If they are seriously concerned about safety, they should all refuse to participate until zuck and musk are invited
@AndrewCurran_ ...but somehow an oil company exec belongs there?
@AndrewCurran_ And this right here is why any beacon of hope in the government is smashed against the rocks as soon as I feel it
