„OpenAI has allegedly become more guarded about publishing research that highlights the potentially negative impact that AI could have on the economy, four people familiar with the matter tell WIRED.
The perceived pullback has contributed to the departure of at least two employees on OpenAI’s economic research team in recent months, according to the same four people, who spoke to WIRED on the condition of anonymity.
While companies often highlight research that benefits them, today’s leading AI labs are given an unusual level of authority to self-report the risks and capabilities of the technology they’re racing to deploy. Silicon Valley leaders have mounted [$100 million lobbying campaigns](https://archive.ph/o/6ayJG/https://www.wired.com/story/alex-bores-andreessen-horowitz-super-pac-ai-regulation-new-york/) to keep it this way, fighting against proposed state-level AI regulations that could constrain the industry.“
I have mixed feelings on this, because maybe it’s good that AI causes the internet to burn down. Maybe it’s good that people eject from being online so much. It’s probably not good for stock prices, but it very well might be good for humanity.
