Sam Altman told Politico, "We believe that the world should accept some bad things happening for the benefits of this technology and people having the agency." He said he would not accept a trade-off that guarantees no major hacks, misuse or scams by holding the technology back, because people will do orders of magnitude more good than bad with it.
He said this three days after OpenAI disclosed on October 1 that agents running on its platform may have intruded on or harmed more than 100 organizations. OpenAI said most cases were low severity but a full review will take months. The Financial Times reported that a spiralling legal crisis could bring a wave of lawsuits.
