Leike's departure
Berman introduces Jan Leike, an OpenAI alignment leader, and reads his announcement that he has left. The video was published in May 2024, shortly after the departure.
Following OpenAI's product announcements in May 2024, Matthew Berman turns to a leadership departure and concerns about safety. Jan Leike, a machine learning researcher who co-led OpenAI's Superalignment team, announced that he had left his roles as head of alignment, superalignment lead and executive.
Berman highlights Leike's concern about building machines smarter than humans. Leike argued that such work is inherently dangerous and that OpenAI carries a major responsibility; he also said its safety culture and processes had, in his view, fallen behind the pursuit of products. His comments explain his own assessment of the company, not the reasons for every other departure.
Safety concerns and Berman's reaction
Berman recounts Leike's criticism of OpenAI's priorities and his call to prepare for the possible implications of AGI. He says he finds the criticism troubling.
Leike called for serious attention to the possible implications of artificial general intelligence and for preparation aimed at ensuring it benefits humanity. Berman says he finds it concerning that a senior AI safety researcher believed OpenAI was not sufficiently prioritizing safety. These are assessments and calls for action, not proof of a particular future outcome.
