☆ Marc Andreessen Has a Plan to Use 'AI to Save the World'

To help avert those risks, Altman recommended to lawmakers that a new agency should be created to police AI projects, particularly ones that operate at higher levels of capabilities. He also says his firm is eager to fund AI startup founders.
