“One of the points they make is that you don’t want to unleash a technology like this when it’s very, very powerful because it doesn’t give society time to adapt. I think this is a reasonable point of view. I think there are responsible people out there trying to figure out how to approach this technology, and so are we.”

He also touched on the issue of deepfake:

With the development of artificial intelligence tools, Even voice cloning has come as close as a click. The ease of use of this technology has also changed the content on the internet. For example, videos of Joe Biden, Donald Trump, and Barrack Obama playing Minecraft started to go viral.
