OpenAI’s Sam Altman is becoming one of the most powerful people on Earth. We should be very afraid

Good intentions alone don't guarantee good outcomes. I suggest not giving any single person or entity too much power, no matter who they are.

The only way to get this rich is by exploiting others and almost definitely breaking laws. These people all have a screw loose somewhere.

I'm afraid of both, too, but if I had to choose:

• evil but smart people only harm you when it benefits them
• dumb but good people harm you all the time

As such I see the later as far more dangerous. Although there's an even worse group, that Altman likely belongs to - the dumb but evil ones.
