Screencap: "As our systems get closer to AGI, we are becoming increasingly cautious with the creation and deployment of our models. Our decisions will require much more caution than society usually applies to new technologies, and more caution than many users would like. Some people in the AI field think the risks of AGI (and successor systems) are fictitious; we would be delighted if they turn out to be right, but we are going to operate as if these risks are existential."

Okay, back to Altman. "As our systems get closer to AGI" -- here's a false presupposition again. Your system isn't AGI, it isn't a step towards AGI, and yet you're dropping that in as if the reader is just supposed to nod along.
Oh, and did you all catch that shout out to xrisk? Weirdo longertermist fantasy indeed.
