The pair has played voted bottles of water and answered a range of press questions on a future Compute cluster with Amazon (Amodei says that “parts of this cluster are already used for research”) and the displacement of workers due to AI (“I don’t think you can unload your business strategy on something like that,” said Krieger).
The spokespersons we had said that we were not allowed to ask questions about policies and regulations, but Amodei offered an unwinding overview from his point of view on a controversial provision in the megabill of President Trump which would prohibit AI regulation at the level of the State for 10 years: “If you drive the car, that is one thing to say”.
