Question one

The increase use of artificial intelligence has resulted to great advancement, however, these

revolutions has been associated with lots of shortcomings. There are high concerns raised

against the use of artificial intelligence (Weitzner, 2023). Ilya Sutskever has worked

diligently to come up with rapid developments in the AI industry. He has been engaged in the

development of the CatGPT which is a great model but anxieties of its safety have rocked the

world. According to Weitzner's (2023), the algorithms did not have inherent morality and it

would not replace the human decency in making key decisions. There is great bias that has

been linked to the algorithms which has also been associated with great criticism of the

outputs of ChatGPT. Sutskever's was candid in highlighting how the development of

artificial intelligence can result to ethical issues, in this regard, it emphasize the need for

human oversight and ethical ground in designing artificial intelligence as well as its

implementation. There is much pressure to implement innovations in the AI sector

(Weitzner's (2022). As a result, this was evident in the internal conflicts at the OpenAI

Company. Sutskever played a critical role in firing and hiring Sam Altman. The growing

pressure on the safety and commercial needs pin point the significant ethical concerns in the

advancement of AI. The actions of Sutskever's can be seen as manifestation of his efforts to

show the real difficulties in balancing the ethical concerns with the needs of business in the

AI industry.

There is need for people to stop tinkering and concentrate on specific goals. As a

result, it is important to adherer to responsible AI development (Davenport & Mittal (2023).

AI development should not be stopped but it the concerned parties should ensure a

responsible and ethical implementation. Davenport & Mittal (2023) argued that there is need

for strategic focus and significant solutions to the safety issues that have been raised by other

people. Furthermore, Sutskever's involvement added some difficult concerns that need
strategic thinking. In this regard, his dual stand point brought in lots of questions on the

potential biased and conflicts of interest (Weitzner, 2023). In this regard, it is important

consider the inherent tensions between the safety, ethics and commercial pressures.

Researchers, policy makers and developers should work together to ensure the importance of

artificial intelligence are not overwhelmed by its demerits.
