Use of scripts:“The Unlikely Pathways to AI Supremacy How does a rebellious teenager in the Midwest dream of changing the world with artificial intelligence? Sam Altman’s journey began in St. Louis, Missouri, where he defied norms to advocate for LGBTQ+ rights in high school, even creating a safe space network for students. His boldness didn’t stop there. At Stanford, Altman was drawn to AI's potential, musing over its dangers and capabilities in a class led by Sebastian Thrun. But the most telling moment came when he founded Loopt, an ambitious but ultimately flawed social mapping app. The failure of Loopt taught him that people can’t be forced to embrace what they’re not ready for. This shaped his belief in aligning technology with human nature, a principle that later guided his work in AI. As the book says, “Sometimes failure is the first step to building something truly meaningful.” The lesson? Embrace failure as a teacher, but use it to refine your vision. For Altman, Loopt’s end was the spark for something greater—a realization that humanity’s needs should drive innovation. With this mindset, he moved on to revolutionize AI, understanding that people only embrace technology that solves real problems. Why would a chess prodigy abandon his lifelong dream to decode the human mind? Demis Hassabis, a child chess genius from North London, saw his skills as more than just game tactics—they were tools for strategizing life itself. But after a heartbreaking loss in a championship, Hassabis decided chess was too small a stage for his intellect. He turned to video games, crafting simulations like Theme Park, a hit that sold millions. For Hassabis, games weren’t mere entertainment; they were microcosms of the world, capable of simulating human behavior. Yet, when his studio Elixir collapsed under the weight of its own ambition, he found clarity. The games weren’t the end goal—they were the means to develop intelligence itself. As the book notes, “The failure of one dream often gives birth to a bigger, more profound one.” The takeaway? Sometimes, success is about redefining the problem. For Hassabis, games were no longer enough; they became the training grounds for his ultimate goal—creating machines that could surpass human intelligence. By flipping his perspective, he laid the groundwork for DeepMind, where games like Go would later become benchmarks for AI supremacy. What connects a failed app and a god game to AI's moral dilemmas? Both Altman and Hassabis understood that power, whether in the form of technology or influence, is double-edged. For Altman, Loopt’s misuse as a surveillance tool opened his eyes to the ethical risks of unchecked innovation. Meanwhile, Hassabis’ quest to simulate human life made him deeply aware of AI’s potential to harm as much as it could help. Both men grappled with the same question: How do we ensure AI serves humanity rather than subverts it? The solution, for both, was not to avoid power but to steward it responsibly. “Ethics,” the book reminds us, “isn’t a barrier to progress—it’s the foundation of it.” From Altman’s cautionary tales to Hassabis’ simulations, the stories converge on a vital point: shaping AI isn’t just about what it can do, but about who controls it and why. Both men’s paths, though vastly different, underscore the need for visionaries who see beyond profit and focus on AI's potential to transform human life.” Title Usage:“#SamAltman #StarGate - Supremacy: AI, ChatGPT, and the Race That Will Change the World · The first few chapters explore Sam Altman and Demis Hassabis’ paths into artificial intelligence.” Content in English.
