- Regulatory agencies are being green lit in real time to do the same to Artificial Intelligence.
- We believe any deceleration of AI will cost lives. Deaths that were preventable by the AI that was prevented from existing is a form of murder.
- We believe Artificial Intelligence is our alchemy, our Philosopher’s Stone – we are literally making sand think. We believe Artificial Intelligence is best thought of as a universal problem solver.
- We believe that if we make both intelligence and energy “too cheap to meter”, the ultimate result will be that all physical goods become as cheap as pencils.
- AI is quite possibly the most important – and best – thing our civilization has ever created, certainly on par with electricity and microchips, and probably beyond those. The development and proliferation of AI – far from a risk that we should fear – is a moral obligation that we have to ourselves, to our children, and to our future.
- Fortunately, I am here to bring the good news: AI will not destroy the world, and in fact may save it.
- In our new era of AI: Every child will have an AI tutor that is infinitely patient, infinitely compassionate, infinitely knowledgeable, infinitely helpful. The AI tutor will be by each child’s side every step of their development, helping them maximize their potential with the machine version of infinite love.
- My view is that the idea that AI will decide to literally kill humanity is a profound category error.

- Frontier AI should be licensed like other critical technologies; medicine, aviation, and nuclear energy, to incentivize safe development.
- The race is not a law of nature: it is the product of choices, choices made by the companies themselves.
- We must agree collectively that no one, no company and no country, should develop an AI system that could cause large-scale harm.
- Even if you believe in a deal with China, and I do not, we (and others) now know competitors can catch up more quickly than we had thought, at least if they think they have a chance of winning.
- If the top U.S. labs have to give up on what is supposed to be really important, they will look very “catchable.” The policy creates a big incentive for some other parts of the world to invest a lot more in compute.
- AI must not be placed in the hands of children without first being tested, evaluated, and therefore authorized.
