I know that there are many people at OpenAI who worry about the risks posed by AI and support real regulation to mitigate these risks. That said, given that Sam Altman’s position on climate change is something along the lines of “we shouldn’t reduce emissions now because we can develop tech to fix whatever we’ve done later” (e.g. https://twitter.com/sama/status/1445059564114563080), I’m skeptical that he personally sees AI regulation as anything other than a means to regulatory capture.
