In this premiere episode of MD MEETS, Axel Springer CEO Mathias Döpfner sits down with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman for an unfiltered conversation about the promises and perils of artificial intelligence. From the risks of AI-driven warfare, to the threat posed by “bad actors” to freedom and democracy, to the role of journalism in an AI-powered world - and even the age-old question of whether humans should live forever - no topic is off limits.

Altman reflects on freedom, democracy, superintelligence, and his personal dream of becoming a farmer once AI takes over his job. A rare and candid look at one of the most influential voices shaping our future.
