In today’s podcast episode, we discuss why some of the biggest names in AI are now calling for a slowdown in development, what we would gain and lose if the pace of AI progress decelerated, and whether these doomsday concerns are about a distant existential risk or consequences that are already showing up in everyday work and life.
