LONDON — Sam Altman, the president of Silicon Valley startup incubator Y Combinator, said in an on-stage interview on Monday that he sees the future of the human race as a "merge" with machines, not a conflict with them.
Altman, who spoke at the event hosted by Mosaic Ventures in East London, said that "if you have the AIs (artificial intelligence) and the humans and they're both trying to enslave the other, and they both want the same thing ... that's a recipe for conflict every time."
