According to Jack Clark, a former researcher at OpenAI, the rapid progress in artificial intelligence (AI) will likely lead to the emergence of the world’s first AI billionaire by 2025. Clark, who now works at the AI research company Anthropic, believes that the AI industry is on the cusp of a major breakthrough that will enable the creation of highly advanced AI systems capable of generating significant wealth. He cites the recent advancements in language models like GPT-3 and image generators like DALL-E as examples of the rapid progress being made in the field. Clark suggests that the AI billionaire will likely emerge from the development of a transformative AI system that can automate various tasks and generate revenue through licensing or subscription models. However, he also acknowledges the potential risks and challenges associated with the development of such powerful AI systems, including the need for robust safety measures and ethical considerations.
