Jony Ive, former Apple designer, expresses deep concern over the unintended consequences of smartphone technology during a Stripe interview. He highlights the importance of taking responsibility for negative outcomes associated with innovation. Ive, who co-founded LoveFrom after leaving Apple, is collaborating with OpenAI on a new product, though details remain scarce. He worries about the lack of conversation surrounding social media risks and appreciates the growing discussions about safety in AI. His commitment to addressing these issues informs his current design work, which he looks forward to revealing in the future.
I think even if you're innocent in your intention, I think if you're involved in something that has poor consequences, you need to own it.
You hope that the majority will be pleasant surprises. Certain products that I've been very, very involved with, I think there were some unintended consequences that were far from pleasant.
I think when you're innovating, of course, there will be unintended consequences.
It's very rare for there to be a discussion about AI, and there not to be the appropriate concerns about safety.
