#367 – Sam Altman: OpenAI CEO on GPT-4, ChatGPT, and the Future of AI
Lex Fridman Podcast
The Terror of Programming With GPT
The speaker is excited about using AI as a tool to amplify human abilities and sees it as the most useful tool yet created. The results of using AI, like GPT, have been amazing, as evidenced by people's self-reported happiness. The speaker enjoys programming with GPT but also feels a little bit of terror. There's a concern about GPT taking programmer jobs, but the reality is that it would only replace subpar programmers. The speaker believes that there's a human element and creative act involved in programming that cannot be fully automated. They are impressed by the boilerplate code and consider the contribution of a great programmer to be one important idea in a day of programming. While GPT-like models may automate many aspects of programming, they are far away from that one important contribution. Overall, most programmers are amazed by AI and find it to be a significant productivity boost.
