Back to OpenAI’s Head of ChatGPT: We’re entering a new era of AI (again) | Tibo Sottiaux, with Tibo Sottiaux.

What Keeps Human Brains Valuable?

Tibo Sottiaux says where human brains stay valuable is a function of how the technology is built. OpenAI designs everything to put humans at the center and to build the tools as extensions of human will and taste, a super empowering thing. As long as that design continues, a person can take whatever they wanted to do and expand creativity and taste until the result feels awesome. In the moment the tool is artistic. There may not be coders anymore, and there are more builders than ever.

Something deeply human remains in the building. Humans want to learn and see what other humans are building. The greater interest is in talking with a person rather than with Dot, and that interest will remain true for a very, very long time.
