At Dartmouth, Mira Murati discussed AI technologies such as ChatGPT and DALL-E, as well as safety and ethical considerations as the technology progresses. She also mentioned the AI-driven job loss and how AI will be primarily used as a collaborative tool to help more people become creative.
Scarlett Johansson threatened legal action against OpenAI for creating a ChatGPT voice that sounded similar to hers. She hired legal counsel to draft letters to OpenAI, demanding an explanation for the creation of the voice6. OpenAI paused the use of the voice in question and apologized to Johansson for not communicating better.
Mira Murati, CTO of OpenAI, envisions AI eliminating some creative jobs, particularly those with repetitive or mechanistic aspects. She believes AI will automate certain tasks, freeing up human creators to focus on higher-level creative thinking and choices. Murati suggests that AI could potentially make people more creative by lowering barriers and allowing anyone with an idea to create. However, her comments have sparked controversy among artists and creatives who feel their jobs are at risk.
