Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg wrote in a new op-ed published on Tuesday that the rise of artificial intelligence should be used to empower all people rather than being centralized and controlled by a few institutions.
Zuckerberg wrote in The Wall Street Journal that people will be able to use superintelligence beyond human capacities in the next few years to create and discover new things, as well as drive economic growth and create opportunities. He noted that contrasts with some of the rhetoric from AI developers, and argued that diffusing AI access and its power broadly will lead to a better outcome.
"It is surprising that the discourse from many of those who are developing artificial intelligence is so filled with doom. I don't understand why anyone who believes that AI will eliminate most jobs and much of humanity's relevance would rush to build that future," he wrote.
