"Altman said he often ponders the question: "What would have to happen for an AI CEO to be able to do a much, much better job of running OpenAI than me?" While there's still work to be done before that day arrives, Altman said he thinks about how the process can be accelerated. He said it's only a matter of single-digit years before AI is capable enough to run a major department within OpenAI."
""I have a farm that I live some of the time and I really love it," he told Axel Springer CEO Mathias Döpfner in an interview in October. Before ChatGPT took off, Altman said he had more time on the farm. He used to "drive tractors and pick stuff," he said. Over the years, he has purchased multimillion-dollar residences in San Francisco and Napa, California, as well as a $43 million estate on the Big Island of Hawaii."
Sam Altman is prepared to be replaced by an AI CEO and considers it shameful if OpenAI is not the first major company led by an AI. He often contemplates what advances would enable an AI CEO to outperform human leadership and explores ways to accelerate that progress. He projects that within a single-digit number of years AI will be capable of running major departments at OpenAI. He already plans a next chapter living partly on his farm, where he previously drove tractors and worked the land. He acknowledges that AI will destroy many jobs short term but expects new kinds of work to emerge long term.
