OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is advocating for a new, ambitious agenda for Washington, businesses, and society to prepare for superintelligence.

Sam Altman, the leader of OpenAI, believes that to change the world and build an empire, one needs to start a religion, with a company serving as a vessel.

In May 2015, Sam Altman emailed Elon Musk stating, "I think we need a Manhattan Project for AI."

Sam Altman predicts that more and more jobs, especially those running large organizations, will involve supervising AI, providing oversight, and deciding how to trust outputs.

Sam Altman believes that intelligence will become a utility, similar to electricity or water, with a personal super assistant running in the cloud.

Sam Altman believes nationalizing OpenAI would likely not be successful in the current way the world works.
