Geoffrey Hinton, recognized as the 'godfather of AI,' recently accepted a Nobel Prize for his groundbreaking work on artificial neural networks. In a spirited speech, Hinton commended his former student Ilya Sutskever for his controversial decision to fire OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, a move that sparked significant discussions about AI safety. Although Hinton viewed this as a triumph for AI ethics, the situation quickly evolved, with Altman regaining substantial control at OpenAI and potentially gaining equity. Hinton's remarks underscore the ongoing tensions in the AI landscape.
