The authors argue for proactive measures to ensure that AI benefits everyone and addresses potential disruptions to jobs and society.
- OpenAI is calling for explicit industrial policy to manage the transition to superintelligent AI rather than leaving it to market forces alone
- The company frames democratic governance and broad access as necessary to prevent AI benefits and power from concentrating among a small few
