WEBVTT

00:00:08.080 --> 00:00:11.357
Thanks for having me.
>> Great to have you, Sam.

00:00:11.440 --> 00:00:12.717
>> It's interesting because people have

00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:15.277
been talking about the potential

00:00:15.360 --> 00:00:18.557
downsides uh or serious risks of AI for

00:00:18.640 --> 00:00:22.557
some time. And I think a lot of people
have been saying why is this the moment

00:00:22.640 --> 00:00:25.517
where it sort of escaped the bubble and

00:00:25.600 --> 00:00:27.757
is now all of a sudden an international

00:00:27.840 --> 00:00:32.317
topic of such uh intensity and I think a

00:00:32.400 --> 00:00:35.117
few things have happened. One the models

00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:40.397
have gotten so good and people
for a long time looked at the models

00:00:40.480 --> 00:00:43.517
maybe they looked at the rate of progress
but I don't think people really

00:00:43.600 --> 00:00:47.597
felt that the models were going
to come this far this fast.

00:00:47.680 --> 00:00:50.077
We will get it right. By the way, I am

00:00:50.160 --> 00:00:53.117
very confident in our I think the

00:00:53.200 --> 00:00:57.117
biggest thing that has changed is this
thing that our industry has been talking

00:00:57.200 --> 00:01:01.277
about for a while, which is no no this
technology, this approach is going to go

00:01:01.360 --> 00:01:03.837
very far. These models are in some ways

00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:08.717
going to become more capable, smarter
than people. Um that finally happened.

00:01:08.800 --> 00:01:12.397
So I think that was a big change
to why now when people say you know my

00:01:12.480 --> 00:01:16.877
probability of doom is x or y
or whatever it hits in a different way

00:01:16.960 --> 00:01:20.957
technology to do somebody else wants
to build like a hacking bot okay um the

00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:22.077
world can decide what they think about

00:01:22.160 --> 00:01:27.837
that but I think you also see um

00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:30.157
a real fear that some of these companies

00:01:30.240 --> 00:01:32.157
or some companies developing AI could

00:01:32.240 --> 00:01:34.957
get too much power and be able to sort

00:01:35.040 --> 00:01:37.677
of exert undue influence uh on the

00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:39.997
economy push worldview out on people.

00:01:40.080 --> 00:01:43.837
Uh, and I think the world is right to be
afraid of this. So, we have these two

00:01:43.920 --> 00:01:47.997
big challenges. We have the potential of
a loss of control accident or some other

00:01:48.080 --> 00:01:52.237
serious thing that could go wrong.
Um, we have the potential of way too much

00:01:52.320 --> 00:01:54.957
power concentration and people fear that

00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:57.197
those developing AI could exert their

00:01:57.280 --> 00:01:59.677
worldview. Um and there is a sort of

00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:02.557
narrow path we have to navigate

00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:06.157
with pragmatism with

00:02:06.240 --> 00:02:08.717
you know steadiness with the ability for

00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:10.877
the the world to like trust that we will

00:02:10.960 --> 00:02:16.237
make dependable decisions consistent
decisions uh through this and I think

00:02:16.320 --> 00:02:20.157
people are saying well you know this now
seems pretty important like let's let's

00:02:20.240 --> 00:02:23.757
get it right I'm not going
to get the days of the

00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:27.357
week exactly right here but something on
like a Friday or a Saturday these models

00:02:27.440 --> 00:02:30.557
have gotten so good so fast that we need

00:02:30.640 --> 00:02:34.877
to treat the alignment and monitoring
and security with a new level of rigor.

00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:37.517
And we have to be willing to pace our

00:02:37.600 --> 00:02:39.597
development of capabilities such that

00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:44.717
capabilities always such
that alignment, safety and

00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:48.797
monitoring are always ahead
of capabilities and the hugging face

00:02:48.880 --> 00:02:52.157
incident triggered a real reset not just
in our own company but I think the whole

00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:54.877
industry. >> You know we're
in the cyber area today

00:02:54.960 --> 00:02:56.957
but maybe we move into another area. Is

00:02:57.040 --> 00:03:01.997
this a fair way to characterization
or am I or is this unfair to characterize

00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:04.717
it like this? >> What I really
care about is that we have

00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:09.037
got a great culture of accident
reporting and learning. I think if we

00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:12.957
look at what happens with the FAA
and the NTSB and how safe airplanes have

00:03:13.040 --> 00:03:16.157
gotten. Um, as I understand it
from talking to people who have really

00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:19.837
studied, you know, new kinds
of technology on the order of magnitude of

00:03:19.920 --> 00:03:21.677
airplanes, one of the things that has

00:03:21.760 --> 00:03:25.677
gone so well there is is the culture of

00:03:25.760 --> 00:03:28.877
accident reporting. You know, accidents
are going to happen. We're going to

00:03:28.960 --> 00:03:30.877
learn as much as we can and react from

00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:35.117
each one. Um, and if you know there's

00:03:35.200 --> 00:03:38.717
other kinds of technology
where I don't think it's gone,

00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:42.157
I don't think society's had the same
response and I don't think we have

00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:46.637
improved as much to pull this thing
together and present you with the

00:03:46.720 --> 00:03:48.957
information to make a decision or to bl.

00:03:49.040 --> 00:03:52.237
I think this is one of the most profound

00:03:52.320 --> 00:03:57.357
changes to how we use technology that
I've ever seen. I mean, sci-fi movies,

00:03:57.440 --> 00:04:00.637
as you mentioned, have been hinting
at this or playing around with this for a

00:04:00.720 --> 00:04:03.757
long time, but this is one of those
moments where it feels like you're in

00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:08.077
the movie. Like, the sci-fi thing came
true. You're talking to your personal

00:04:08.160 --> 00:04:12.157
super assistant and you are working
10 times faster or better or more

00:04:12.240 --> 00:04:14.397
creatively than you could have before.

00:04:14.480 --> 00:04:17.677
>> Sam, you're invited back
anytime you want to Dream Force.

00:04:17.760 --> 00:04:19.117
>> Hold on. I'm going to hold you back.

00:04:19.200 --> 00:04:22.157
Thank you. >> Show me what
the future was and it's

00:04:22.240 --> 00:04:25.597
been an incredible experience. show it

00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:28.157
to you for the first time. The customer

00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:30.397
at the end of it said for the first

00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:33.597
time, for the first time they saw that

00:04:33.680 --> 00:04:37.757
trop value. Now I want to just tell you

00:04:37.840 --> 00:04:41.437
we are here to do many things with you.

00:04:41.520 --> 00:04:44.477
Now as you know we are here to excite

00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:49.117
you coming to San Francisco and thank
you for coming to this incredible dream

00:04:49.200 --> 00:04:52.317
force. >> We are going
to have an amazing day.

00:04:52.400 --> 00:04:55.357
We're going to have an amazing conference.

00:04:55.440 --> 00:04:57.437
And let me just tell you this, we have

00:04:57.520 --> 00:05:00.477
never been more excited about a Dream

00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:07.480
Force in our history.
This is going to be absolutely incredible.

00:05:07.850 --> 00:05:09.870
[applause]

00:05:11.440 --> 00:05:16.157
And here we have the CEO of Enthropic
right here, Daario. Hello, Dario. How

00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:21.037
are you? >> Hey, >> great to have you.
Fantastic. [applause]

00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:25.517
Great job, Daario. you're doing
an amazing job leading the AI industry,

00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:28.797
guiding it all right from our Slack
headquarters building. We watch you

00:05:28.880 --> 00:05:32.717
every day. Is to say, hey, first of all,
let's look let's look at our own record,

00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:36.157
right? We may not have had this big
high-profile incident, but I'm sure

00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:39.277
we're not perfect. Let's look
at everything and we can always be better.

00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:41.357
Let's make our practices better. Um,

00:05:41.440 --> 00:05:43.757
let's recommmit transparency. Let's

00:05:43.840 --> 00:05:48.477
invest more in safety. Then let's
organize the rest of the industry and

00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:52.077
say, what can we do to set standards
for everyone? what can we do to make

00:05:52.160 --> 00:05:55.517
everyone's standards better?
And then finally, there should be an

00:05:55.600 --> 00:05:59.597
international component to it. And and
that's essentially the the three-step

00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:03.517
plan that I laid out that I laid out
in the essay. The the first of which we

00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:07.757
committed to and the the others of which
we're going to have a dialogue with the

00:06:07.840 --> 00:06:09.757
rest of the industry about. And I think

00:06:09.840 --> 00:06:11.517
I think that's the way to lead the

00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:14.877
industry forward to set an example to

00:06:14.960 --> 00:06:18.797
say that everyone can always be better.

00:06:18.880 --> 00:06:21.357
you know it's it's been the pace of the

00:06:21.440 --> 00:06:24.157
progress not just of the technology but

00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:27.757
of the economic side of it. So we you

00:06:27.840 --> 00:06:32.077
know I formulated the scaling laws along
with some of my co-founders which tell

00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:35.517
you that AI models get smarter and
smarter the more compute you throw into

00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:38.317
them. And so we had a prediction of just

00:06:38.400 --> 00:06:42.637
how capable these models would be. But I
think what we didn't appreciate is that

00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:46.797
it would lead to these companies growing
so fast to all these incredible, you

00:06:46.880 --> 00:06:49.837
know, products that we're working
together on and you've been talking

00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:54.077
about today and and how quickly they
would become central to everything

00:06:54.160 --> 00:06:55.917
that's going on in the world, right?

00:06:56.000 --> 00:07:00.317
>> Say, you know, yes, we're have to keep
our eye on the pace of AI. You know,

00:07:00.400 --> 00:07:03.437
it's been amazing what's happened over
10 years. No one could have written the

00:07:03.520 --> 00:07:05.437
story.

00:07:05.520 --> 00:07:08.397
When I look at the technology versus how

00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:13.277
much it has diffused, even if we freeze
the technology in place, which we're not

00:07:13.360 --> 00:07:16.957
doing, pacing the frontier is not not
doing that at all. The technology will

00:07:17.040 --> 00:07:19.037
keep getting better. But just suppose we

00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:21.517
freezed it in place. Even if that were

00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:24.877
the case, we're making use of maybe only

00:07:24.960 --> 00:07:29.757
five or 10% of what the possible
value of the technology is.

00:07:29.840 --> 00:07:31.117
>> Congratulations. Well done.

00:07:31.200 --> 00:07:33.837
>> We're going to do incredible things
together. You're doing a great job.

00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:36.877
Thanks for everything you're doing for the
whole industry. We're so grateful to you.

00:07:36.960 --> 00:07:39.677
>> Thank you for having me.
>> Really thrilled. Thank you so much.

00:07:39.760 --> 00:07:42.157
>> All right. >> And thank
you for coming to Dreamforce.

00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:44.317
>> Please thank the anthropic team.

00:07:44.400 --> 00:07:46.420
[applause]

00:07:48.080 --> 00:07:54.280
>> Jensen. >> WOOHOO.
[cheering] [applause]

00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:57.517
>> Great to have you, Jensen.
Thank you for being here.

00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:02.157
>> We all have to learn how
to walk and talk at the same time.

00:08:02.240 --> 00:08:05.837
How are you guys doing this >>
on our board who I think was at Nvidia

00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:09.597
for a while as well.
>> That's right. Love David Kirk.

00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:14.397
>> And now give us your vision of the
future. You know, where are we going?

00:08:14.480 --> 00:08:15.997
Because of course you've got these

00:08:16.080 --> 00:08:18.637
critical components. You've got well

00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:21.677
safety is paramount in a lot of ways.

00:08:21.760 --> 00:08:26.397
It's job one. However, safety is an
engineering problem. We're developing

00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:29.437
software after all. We're developing
computing systems after all. It's

00:08:29.520 --> 00:08:33.437
complicated computing system but it's
ultimately a computing system and so so

00:08:33.520 --> 00:08:35.517
the first thing is to make sure that we

00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:39.437
create the test environments for testing

00:08:39.520 --> 00:08:43.437
these complex systems and those test
environments have to be built in a good

00:08:43.520 --> 00:08:46.637
way built in a safe way and then
the second thing is we have to test these

00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:50.317
products if we're if we're not confident

00:08:50.400 --> 00:08:52.477
about the safety of the products like

00:08:52.560 --> 00:08:57.437
all companies like you and I any any
com all the companies here if you build a

00:08:57.520 --> 00:09:01.197
product or a service
and you're confident in its

00:09:01.280 --> 00:09:03.677
functionality, capability, or safety,

00:09:03.760 --> 00:09:05.917
then don't release it. And so, that's a

00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:11.277
very obvious thing to do. You pace
yourself until you are confident you're

00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:14.957
releasing something that the market
would appreciate. The market forces are

00:09:15.040 --> 00:09:16.557
already there. We don't need any new

00:09:16.640 --> 00:09:19.197
laws. We don't need new regulations. Um,

00:09:19.280 --> 00:09:22.237
we just need uh companies to decide that

00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:24.877
when it's, you know, run as fast as they

00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:28.717
can. I think innovation speed and safe

00:09:28.800 --> 00:09:31.677
products are not it's a false choice.

00:09:31.760 --> 00:09:35.517
You could definitely have both at the
same time. So run as fast as you can,

00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:39.757
but if you feel at any given point
in time the company's out of control or or

00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:43.197
the product's not going to be safe, you
know, take a pause and make sure you get

00:09:43.280 --> 00:09:47.437
it righties and transform them.
The technology can partner with them to do

00:09:47.520 --> 00:09:51.197
this in incredible new ways. That is what
I'm really Jensen. We could not be

00:09:51.280 --> 00:09:55.677
more grateful to you for coming to
Dreamforce being >> being a part of this.

00:09:55.760 --> 00:09:57.997
>> Thank you. >> We are so
Please thank Jensen Wall.

00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:01.997
>> Thank you. Thank [cheering] you. Thank
you. Thank you. [applause] Thank you,

00:10:02.080 --> 00:10:05.517
Mark. >> Thank you, Jensen.

00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:09.197
>> Dario and pacing and all the rest of
it, but I think my colleagues will handle

00:10:09.280 --> 00:10:13.677
that one. So since then you've done
a great deal to bang the lid on the coffin

00:10:13.760 --> 00:10:15.437
of um sus the suspocalypse

00:10:15.520 --> 00:10:18.797
>> the ones which are
still in the PC phase

00:10:18.880 --> 00:10:21.197
number one and number two.

00:10:21.280 --> 00:10:22.957
>> Yeah I thought it was super interesting

00:10:23.040 --> 00:10:26.237
obviously we have architected the uh uh

00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:29.677
keynote before this week as you know and

00:10:29.760 --> 00:10:33.037
so we definitely had Daario and Jensen.

00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:35.197
I think that we heard both sides of the

00:10:35.280 --> 00:10:38.557
pendulum. You know, in my view,

00:10:38.640 --> 00:10:40.957
technology is never good or bad. It's

00:10:41.040 --> 00:10:43.197
what you're doing with the technology

00:10:43.280 --> 00:10:45.917
that matters. And I think that that

00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:49.837
remains the key thing. And um you know,

00:10:49.920 --> 00:10:53.677
I think that these companies obviously
have to be responsible for what they're

00:10:53.760 --> 00:10:57.437
building. That is going to be
the the key to it being them being ethical

00:10:57.520 --> 00:10:59.037
companies.

00:10:59.120 --> 00:11:01.837
Committed to that. We've now given more

00:11:01.920 --> 00:11:04.717
than $130 million to this. I know it's

00:11:04.800 --> 00:11:07.597
unusual for a, you know, company to have

00:11:07.680 --> 00:11:12.477
that exposure. I think that, you know,
you're going to find different opinions

00:11:12.560 --> 00:11:17.037
right now. We're in a very fluid moment
in AI. And I think that as we kind of

00:11:17.120 --> 00:11:21.277
start to get our head around what are
the capability of the models, who can do

00:11:21.360 --> 00:11:22.877
what and also obviously there's

00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:25.437
political orientations for everybody's

00:11:25.520 --> 00:11:29.117
where everybody is. So, um I think that

00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:31.597
we already have regulations around the

00:11:31.680 --> 00:11:33.997
models, right? We have laws and I think

00:11:34.080 --> 00:11:37.677
that companies have to be um you know uh

00:11:37.760 --> 00:11:39.677
adherent to those laws and regulations.

00:11:39.760 --> 00:11:41.597
Will those laws and regulations continue

00:11:41.680 --> 00:11:43.597
to adapt and evolve and move forward? Of

00:11:43.680 --> 00:11:46.797
course. So that is I think just at the

00:11:46.880 --> 00:11:49.437
moment we are currently in the industry.

00:11:49.520 --> 00:11:54.157
We're in a highly evolutionary point
and I think that these things will change

00:11:54.240 --> 00:11:58.797
you know as they're needed.
>> It's really up to them. I I think we're

00:11:58.880 --> 00:12:01.517
doing all right with the investment and we
couldn't be more thrilled to have you

00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:03.037
at Dream Force. Thank you everybody.

00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:06.440
Thank [applause] you everybody.
