00:00Amjad, you're at the forefront of the commercial development of AI.
00:05Do you get a sense that this technology poses an existential threat to humanity?
00:13No.
00:17I'm curious about Dr. Jampolsky's kind of argument,
00:21but I think that generally when I've heard those arguments,
00:25they tend to rely on these sort of chain of events that every one of them is sort of implausible and sort of logical leaps.
00:38And so it's never been convincing.
00:40And when I look at their solutions, they tend to talk about how to stop AI development or pause it or delay it.
00:49And I think then you need to think about the opportunity cost.
00:52Even if you take their concerns into account, the opportunity costs of stopping AI are massive.
01:00You know, AI could cure cancer, could help us with drug discovery,
01:05could push standards of living up all over the world.
01:08It is the frontier of technology, and technology has always been the thing that pushed humanity forward.
