Brief news summary

Jacopo Pantaleoni, former computer scientist at Nvidia, has become an outspoken critic of artificial intelligence (AI) technology and Nvidia's role in its development. He is concerned about the concentration of power among a few AI companies, the displacement of jobs, and the cognitive weakening caused by computing technology. Pantaleoni's work in rendering technologies contributed to the success of companies like Nvidia and their applications in machine learning and AI. He left Nvidia because he believed it was impossible to change the outcomes of these companies from the inside and believes that regulation is necessary. Pantaleoni is now advising government regulators and advocating for a more positive impact of technology on society, such as in medicine or calmer technology that promotes social interaction and problem-solving. He also warns that AI technology can amplify the negative effects of social media, such as maximizing attention and blurring the distinction between fact and fiction.

Jacopo Pantaleoni, a computer scientist known for his work in developing graphics systems for films such as Avatar and The Matrix, has become a vocal critic of AI technology and its potential for concentration of power. He is concerned about the influence and information held by a few AI companies and the displacement of jobs. Pantaleoni left Nvidia, a leading technology company, due to his concerns and has since written a book and advised government regulators on regulating the technology.

He believes the most pressing issue is the concentration of power, rather than the apocalyptic scenarios often discussed. Pantaleoni emphasizes the need for regulation to address these concerns.
