In this podcast, Daniel describes how he sold Satalia to WPP and why has been a successful acquisition, why machine consciousness will be a fundamental question over the coming years, why we may only be 10-20 years away from a superintelligence, and why a superintelligence could be the biggest existential threat to humans if we don’t focus on safety.
