Millennial boss of OpenAI challenger says AGI predictions driven by 'very religious' ideals
==========

Arthur Mensch, CEO of Mistral AI, a French challenger to OpenAI, believes that the predictions of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) outsmarting humans are driven by a 'very religious' fascination. He disagrees with the idea of AGI becoming a reality and sees it as an attempt to create a god-like entity. Mensch also calls for a light touch to regulations in Europe and believes that AI will fundamentally change how workers do their jobs, creating an urgency for retraining. Mistral AI has raised $113 million in funding and aims to be a European champion in the AI space.
