Altman says world should accept some harms for AI's benefits

Original: Altman: `World should accept some bad things happening' for the benefits of AI

Sam Altman, in an interview with Politico's Decoded series, argued that the world should accept some bad things happening in exchange for the broad benefits artificial intelligence is expected to deliver. The remarks are drawing criticism from people who see them as dismissive of AI's real risks, while supporters view them as a pragmatic trade-off argument in the ongoing debate over regulating the technology.

Why now: Altman's blunt trade-off framing on AI harms reignites the debate over how much risk society should tolerate for technological progress.
