On May 7, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman posted a chart on social media showing the ratio of US debt to gross domestic product (GDP). He believes this is a very scary trend, and there is no plan to solve this problem yet, and not many people even admit that a plan is needed. He predicts that as the rest of the world seeks alternatives to the dollar and interest rates remain at non-zero levels, this problem will become more serious and evolve into a long-brewing crisis.
Sam Altman believes that significant economic growth driven by technology is the only viable way to solve this problem, and he can't think of any other reasonable way to solve it.
