Fortune contrasts his view on hacks and scams with Jensen Huang's zero-tolerance position.

Interview: Sam Altman’s Stance That AI May Bring ‘Some Bad Things Happening’

Fortune reports that Sam Altman has said the world may have to accept "some bad things happening" in exchange for AI's benefits, including major hacks, misuse and scams, and has warned of "a coming tidal wave of cybersecurity problems" from rival open-source models. Nvidia's Jensen Huang rejected that framing in his October 14 interview.

We cite these remarks as characterized by Fortune and have not reviewed the original interview. Altman said in September that no gamble with humanity is acceptable.
