This could be the best or worst time ever to start a career.
AI is now your coworker, competitor … and maybe even your replacement.
Leaders have been fumbling for words on what’s next. Today, we offer Game Plan, your playbook to prepare for AI. 🧵

I sat down with @So8res to discuss his new book about the real risks of superhuman AI. To be honest, this conversation was unsettling.
I believe that action and education are the antidote to despair, so join me in reading “If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies” and let me know how you feel about AI.

Please read @hitRECordJoe and my op-ed for @TIME today on the impact of AI and the need for regulation.
Next time legislation like this comes up for a vote, we will fight in greater numbers to make our government work for everyone, not just for big business. Let’s all stay informed, speak out, and demand better from our leaders. Gov @GavinNewsom may have failed us this time, but if we all stand together, we won’t let it happen again.

Some in Silicon Valley dismiss the potential downsides of AI as science fiction.
It’s probably not a coincidence that the loudest of these voices are positioned to make ungodly amounts of money in the AI business.

SB 1047 had the backing of AI safety groups, responsible tech orgs and many unions.
By vetoing it, Newsom sided with Big Tech, billionaire-backed VC firms & the Chamber of Commerce.

AI can and will be used for so much good. But just like we’ve seen with social media, there could also be seriously damaging side effects if governments don’t lay down some rules. I was hoping to see California step up and lead the way with #SB1047. And while I’m disappointed to see the bill vetoed, I’m also truly inspired to have seen so many people stand up and raise their voices in support of it. Next time AI legislation like this is up for a vote, we’ll be back in force to get it over the finish line.

Despite widespread support from AI creators, the public, labor unions, and most Californians, Governor @GavinNewsom decided to veto #SB1047. Like it or not, Newsom’s explanation echoes the influence fossil fuel industries have had over politicians in the past, or the chemical industry’s method of delaying regulation of “forever chemicals” by claiming they were an “economic driver.” This is dangerous thinking and has led to catastrophic outcomes time and again.
This bill was unique in addressing catastrophic risks to all of us from AI models, and it sought to regulate the entire industry.
The need for comprehensive AI regulation remains urgent and unresolved. If Governor Newsom won’t act, others must.

📢@GavinNewsom @CAgovernor, add @CaliforniaLabor to the list of interest groups supporting reasonable rules on AI risk.
They join the public, academics, artists, parents, youth, world leaders, tech leaders/workers & many more.
Who knew not dying would be so popular? #signSB1047

The more I read the words of these #SB1047 opponents, the more I'm convinced they've never read the bill. The only people talking about "science fiction" risks are the lobbyists opposing the bill. #RTFB

The most sweeping AI law in the country should be based on science, not science fiction The author of SB 1047 debated me about bioweapons risk of AI for @CarnegieEndow - without presenting one expert finding to support his fearmongering - and made this crystal clear for me Newsom should veto SB 1047 and develop a bill that actually makes us safer

All these endorsements make me think this might really be coming down to the wire.
