  1. Karen Hao interviewed 90+ OpenAI insiders for Empire of AI. Her conversation on The Diary of a CEO documents how AI companies fund researchers studying their own systems, shift AGI definitions by audience, and pick capabilities by market value rather than general intelligence. Primary source material for governance practitioners.

  2. Just finished reading “Empire of AI” by Karen Hao, the story of the rise of OpenAI, how it went from non-profit to for-profit, and the insane speed with which AI has become so pervasive. Strikes the right tone of caution re: safety and governance. The multi-billion dollar investments and valuations of these companies is mad. Their theft of data, erosion of privacy and desire to rule the world is chilling. Good read especially if you’re interested in the topic but remain skeptical of those running it.

  23. #SpeakingOutOfPlace welcomes #KarenHao, author of #EmpireOfAI: Dreams and Nightmares in #SamAltman’s #OpenAI

    'Karen explains that she chose the word “empire” precisely to indicate the colonial nature of #AI’s domination: the tremendous damage this enterprise does to the poor, to racial and ethnic minorities, and to the Global South in general in terms of minds, bodies, the environment, natural resources, and any notion of democracy.'

  33. Thank you both, you made me buy Karen Hao's 'Empire of AI' .

    From a NY Times review:
    The “paper clip problem” is a well‑known ethics thought experiment in the world of artificial intelligence where the ' harmless' goal of making paperclips ends up using all of Earth's resources.

    Karen Hao argues that the pursuit of an artificial superintelligence has become its own figurative paper clip factory.
