On Monday morning, 30 June, Marleen Stikker joined the NPO Radio 1 studio to discuss the biography of Sam Altman, the creator and co-founder of OpenAI. What ideology drives the development of AI?
Altman, whose biography has just been published, is described as ‘the face of the AI revolution’. He has an ideologically-driven worldview and proclaims that AI can save humanity. What influence does he currently have on the development of AI, and what does it mean when one individual has so much power?
Marleen Stikker takes a critical look at the ideas of Silicon Valley and the development of AI. She highlights the problem of disinformation, the impact on the climate, and the streams of money and investments that flow through the tech world.
