OpenAI, the team behind the popular AI chatbot ChatGPT, has announced the creation of a team to manage the risks of superintelligent AI systems. The non-profit believes that superintelligence could be the most impactful technology ever invented, but also poses risks such as human extinction. OpenAI plans to dedicate 20% of its compute power to the effort and aims to create a "human-level" automated alignment researcher to manage superintelligence safety. This announcement comes as governments around the world consider measures to regulate AI systems, with the European Union and the United States both taking steps towards regulation.
