So glad we're all focused on the stuff that matters.
I just signed an executive order permanently declaring Artificial Intelligence “Artificial Intelligence” in California. You’re welcome, America.

Dear @JensenHuang @NVIDIAAI: What about 2031? 😮
NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang says there is a "zero chance" AI will end humanity by 2030. Tristan Harris, co-founder of the Center for Humane Technology, says "the world is not steering away from the cliff in time."

Hmmm.

Imagine if there existed somewhere in the world such an amazing world leader that he could make a global deal for #AISafety. I'll bet if you could make a deal like that...it would be worthy of a #NobelPrize. @realDonaldTrump
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei urged world leaders to work together on AI in an extraordinary appearance before the UN Security Council that focused on growing concerns the technology poses existential risks to humanity bloom.bg/4jkd3vl

It would take a once-in-a-lifetime world leader to be able to make a global deal for #AISafety. I'll bet if you could make a deal like that...it would be worthy of a #NobelPrize. @realDonaldTrump
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman on potential dangers of AI: "First, we could lose control of the future to AI. The risk is that it moves so fast that people can no longer follow what's happening or intervene when needed."

Uh oh. Turns out @billwillswtam @wtam1100 Radio, like me, is a bit of an #AISkeptic. Or is that #SISkeptic, if we adopt new Trump branding for AI? Making a deal with China about #AISafety might be #NobelPrize worthy; an AI rebrand not so much. @realDonaldTrump

Dear Mr. President: Here's what @ChatGPT thinks of your name change for AI. FWIW I don't think changing the name fixes anything - I'd rather see you focus on problems instead of cosmetics, and maybe tackling actual problems could translate into a #NobelPrize for you? chatgpt.com/share/6ab31e15-a… @realDonaldTrump

If someone could find a way to slow down AI globally avoiding mass destruction, would that be worth #NobelPrize? That's the question I ask @billwillswtam @wtam1100 Radio this morning. @claudeai @AnthropicAI @DarioAmodei @OpenAI @ChatGPT @sama @realDonaldTrump

My take this morning with @ThomBrennamanTV @700wlw Radio on the "will AI kill us all" question: 1. Maybe GLOBAL agreement to regulate would be possible if done by great never-before-in-history leader; closing this deal would certainly be worthy of #NobelPrize. 2. Somewhat in jest I also suggest: Perhaps we should aggressively regulate and slow things down here while simultaneusly encouraging China to speed up...let the inevitable desctruction happen there to their systems and their economy while we watch and learn. @claudeai @AnthropicAI @DarioAmodei @OpenAI @ChatGPT @sama @realDonaldTrump

Did another interview about new book "The Everywhere Millionaire," this time with @ThomBrennamanTV @700wlw Radio. So how do you become an #EverywhereMillionaire? Hint: They're everywhere...so go find a few and ask them for advice. Another hint: Joining your local @Rotary might be a good way to meet and get to know a few of your local "Everywhere Millionaires"...and to let them get to know you, too. @omzidar everywheremillionaire.com
