There's a "wall of fear-mongering and doomerism" in the AI world right now.

"Worrying about AI today is like worrying about overpopulation on Mars."

Concerns that AI could pose a threat to humanity is "preposterously ridiculous."

Claiming AI poses an existential threat is "such an extreme" and risks "wip[ing] out some of its potential benefits."

"I'm more concerned about... the risks that are here and now [than the existential threat of AI]."

Current AI is "not anywhere close" to posing an existential threat but it could in the future.

AI is the "biggest existential threat" to humanity.

AGI's worst-case scenario would be "lights-out for all of us."

Powerful AI systems "taking control" pose an "existential threat."

AI has a "10 to 25 per cent" chance of destroying humanity.

"The most likely result of building a superhumanly smart AI... is that literally everyone on Earth will die."

Does AI Pose an Existential Threat to Humanity?

OpenAI released a 13-page policy blueprint titled "Industrial Policy for the Intelligence Age: Ideas to Keep People First," outlining proposals for how governments should tax, regulate and redistribute wealth as AI advances toward superintelligence.

The document warns that AI-driven growth could erode the payroll and labor tax base funding programs like Social Security, Medicaid and SNAP, and proposes shifting toward capital-based revenues and exploring "taxes related to automated labor."

OpenAI proposed a public wealth fund, seeded partly by AI companies, that would invest in AI-linked assets and distribute returns directly to citizens, offering a stake in AI-driven growth regardless of existing market investments.

The blueprint suggests incentivizing employers and unions to pilot 32-hour, four-day workweeks at full pay as an "efficiency dividend," and calls for expanded job pathways in human-centered sectors such as child care, health care and community services.

Altman warned that a major AI-enabled cyberattack is "totally possible" within the next year and said AI being used to engineer novel pathogens is "no longer a theoretical thing," identifying cyber and biological threats as the most immediate risks.

The blueprint includes "containment playbooks" for dangerous AI systems that cannot be recalled, auto-triggering safety net expansions tied to displacement metrics and structured mechanisms for public input on AI governance. OpenAI said it would open a Washington workshop in May and fund fellowships and research grants of up to $100,000 to advance the proposals.
