Safety from AGI, sure. But I've could argue there will still be safety concerns from the deepfakes and scams OpenAI's tech is sure to proliferate

[swatcoder]

But if you assemble a team of leading public figures and researchers caught up in AGI catastrophe scenarios, and then try to direct that team to just implement some guardrails against deepfakes/scams/taboos, you're quickly going to find them frustrated.

It's like taking a star NFL/NBA team and sending them to play a season of exhibition games in a foreign market instead of continuing to compete in the peak league of their sport.

This analogy doesn't track because Lebron would run circles around any foreign basketball team while OpenAI is not keeping up with deepfake detection.

> safety concerns from the deepfakes and scams

Those will happen whether or not you have a safety team. The best way to protect against these is to widely distribute deep fakes of famous people so everyone is aware that faking things is possible.

This would certainly raise awareness, but how exactly would it protect against deepfakes?

[londons_explore]

Don't protect against deep fakes. Make everyone know that deep fakes are possible and then they lose their power to influence.

Social media was already rife with fake news and half truths before ChatGPT.

And there are already open source LLMs that can be trained to scam a significant number of people. OpenAI can't do anything about it.

The only remedy is social media warning people.

I wonder if Adobe Photoshop has a safety team

We need safety from darkpatterns worse than twitter and facebook.combined.
