OpenAI's Sam Altman Says 'We're Making AGI' And It Will Be 'Worth It:' 'Don't Care If We Burn $500M Or $50B'
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has expressed a resolute commitment to the development of artificial general intelligence (AGI), regardless of the financial cost.
OpenAI首席执行官山姆·奥特曼表达了对开发人工通用智能（AGI）的坚定承诺，无论财务成本如何。
What Happened: Altman, in a recent interview with Stanford eCorner, conveyed his unwavering dedication to the AGI project, regardless of the financial implications.
发生了什么：奥特曼在最近接受斯坦福大学eCorner采访时表达了他对AGI项目的坚定不移的奉献精神，无论其财务影响如何。
"Whether we burn $500 million, $5 billion, or $50 billion a year, I don't care."
“无论我们每年消耗5亿美元、50亿美元还是500亿美元，我都不在乎。”
For context, Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:MSFT), OpenAI's single largest investor, has poured $13 billion into the AI startup.
就背景而言，OpenAI的最大单一投资者微软公司（纳斯达克股票代码：MSFT）已向这家人工智能初创公司注资130亿美元。
"I genuinely don't as long as we can stay on a trajectory where eventually we create way more value for society than that and as long as we can figure out a way to pay the bills."
“只要我们能走上最终为社会创造比这更多的价值的轨道，只要我们能想出一种支付账单的方法，我真的不行。”

Altman emphasized that the development of AGI is a costly but worthwhile endeavor. He also mentioned that the subsequent iterations of the GPT model would be significantly more advanced.
奥特曼强调说，开发AGI是一项昂贵但值得的努力。他还提到，GPT模型的后续迭代将更加先进。
Altman acknowledged that the financial requirements for AGI development were unforeseen when OpenAI was founded. However, he stressed that the primary goal was to advance AI research.
奥特曼承认，在OpenAI成立时，AGI开发的财务要求是不可预见的。但是，他强调说，主要目标是推进人工智能研究。
Why It Matters: Altman's unwavering commitment to AGI is evident in his previous actions. In February, he praised his team's talent and dedication after the impressive launch of the video generator Sora AI model.
为何重要：奥特曼对AGI的坚定承诺在他之前的行动中显而易见。2月，在视频生成器Sora AI模型令人印象深刻的推出之后，他赞扬了团队的才华和奉献精神。
He also invited others interested in contributing to the development of AGI. In the same month, Altman was reportedly seeking approval from the Biden administration for his $7 trillion chipmaking dreams, a project that would revolutionize global AI chip production.
他还邀请了其他有兴趣为AGI的发展做出贡献的人。据报道，同月，奥特曼正在寻求拜登政府的批准，以实现其7万亿美元的芯片制造梦想，该项目将彻底改变全球人工智能芯片的生产。
However, in March, xAI founder Elon Musk sued Altman and OpenAI, alleging that they had betrayed the founding principles of the AI startup by refining an AGI to maximize profits for Microsoft.
但是，在三月份，xAi创始人埃隆·马斯克起诉了奥特曼和OpenAI，指控他们通过完善AGI来实现微软利润最大化，从而背叛了这家人工智能初创公司的创始原则。
This development is noteworthy, especially considering the Destiny Tech100 DXYZ fund (NYSE:DXYZ), which focuses on investing in private high-growth tech companies, has fallen by 51.15% in the past month, according to Benzinga Pro.
根据Benzinga Pro的数据，这一进展值得注意，特别是考虑到专注于投资私人高增长科技公司的Destiny Tech100 DXYZ基金（纽约证券交易所代码：DXYZ）在过去一个月中下跌了51.15％。
