Moore’s Law, coined after Intel co-founder Gordon E. Moore, suggests that the number of components on a chip doubles every two years at minimal cost. Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, in a recent blog post acknowledges the impact of Moore’s Law and highlights the exponential drop in AI usage costs, signaling the advancement towards artificial general intelligence (AGI). Altman predicts a faster scientific progress, significant decrease in goods pricing, and a rise in luxury goods and limited resources cost. The looming AGI raises important questions on its ethical and controlled usage to prevent authoritarian control scenarios. Altman envisions a future where intellectual capacity is widely accessible, emphasizing the need for discussions on the responsible development and distribution of AGI. The unpredictable future of AGI development and control poses challenges that require immediate attention and strategic planning.
