The chief executive of OpenAI, Sam Altman has faced questions on the safety of Artificial Intelligence (AI) from lawmakers in the US Senate.

The company created the app ChatGPT, which can write essays, scripts, poems, and solve computer coding in a human-like way, powered by AI technology.

US politicians are seeking to understand the potential threats the fast-developing technology may pose and whether it should be regulated by the government.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman tells ABC News’ Rebecca Jarvis that AI will reshape society and acknowledges the risks: “I think people should be happy that we are a little bit scared of this.”

"What keeps you up at night around this issue of AI?" Scott Pelley asked Google CEO Sundar Pichai. He opened up about several concerns with this rapidly changing technology.

now as promised let's return to Capitol Hill because over the last hour or so Sam Altman the CEO and co-founder of open AI has been giving evidence before a congressional Committee in Washington open AI is the company of course behind the artificial intelligence tool chat GPT that is the potential to revolutionize how people work shop and interact well he's being questioned by U.

S lawmakers about both the huge benefits the technology could bring also the threats that artificial intelligence could pose for Humanity plus the safeguards that will actually be needed back in March Elon Musk you may remember and other Tech leaders published an open letter calling for the development of AI systems to be paused well as he began giving evidence to this Senate panel that Sam Altman said government intervention was needed to keep the industry safe open AI was founded on the belief that artificial intelligence has the potential to improve nearly every aspect

of Our Lives but also that it creates serious risks we have to work together to manage we're here because people love this technology we think it can be a printing press moment we have to work together to make it so open AI is an unusual company and we set it up that way because AI is an unusual technology we are governed by a non-profit and our activities are driven by our mission and our Charter which commit us to working to ensure that the broad distribution of the benefits of AI and to maximizing the safety of AI systems

we are working to build tools that one day can help us make new discoveries and address some of Humanity's biggest challenges like climate change and curing cancer our current systems aren't yet capable of doing these things but it has been immensely gratifying to watch many people around the world get so much value from what these systems can already do today what has been fascinating listening for the last air or so but after that Sam open went on to explain the worst to potential consequences of AI have a

listen I think jobs and employment and what we're all going to do with our time really matters I agree that when we get to very powerful systems the landscape will change I think I'm just more optimistic that we are incredibly creative and we find new things to do with better tools and that will keep happening um my worst fears are that we cause significant we the field the technology the industry cause significant harm to the world uh I think that could happen in a lot of different ways it's why we

started the company um it's a big part of why I'm here today and why we've been here in the past and we've been able to spend some time with you I think if this technology goes wrong it can go quite wrong and we want to be vocal about that we want to work with the government to prevent that from happening but we we try to be very clear-eyed about what the downside case is and the work that we have to do to mitigate that what a really clear answer there let me take you back live to proceedings
