[Lori Siegel]

I'm Lori Siegel and this is Mostly Human, a tech podcast through a human lens. This week, an interview with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.

[Sam Altman]

I think society is gonna decide that creators of AI products bear a tremendous amount of responsibility to the products we put out in the world.

[Lori Siegel]

An in depth conversation with the man who's shaping our future.

[Sam Altman]

My highest order bit is to not destroy the world with AI.

[Lori Siegel]

Listen to Mostly Human on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to your favor.

[Bobby]

Come on, it's time for the good news.

[Amy]

Tell me something good. That's pretty easy. Today's my birthday. Amy sent over a great dinner last night, which we talked about. Caitlyn's mom is here until the weekend, which has been so helpful. Just the rhythm is starting to come together, which is good. Like, I, I yesterday I really felt that I took a nap yesterday. I never, I shouldn't say never. I rarely take naps, and I especially haven't taken one since the baby has been born because I try to give my wife any sort of relief and mostly because she'll go, I don't need the relief. Like, I'm good, but like, her back kills her from holding the baby all the time and from feeding every her back. And I'm like, I'm not giving it to you because you feel like you need a detachment from the baby physically. Your body's killing you right now from all the work that you're doing. So she got a roller, and last night I took the baby for like two hours, I think, and she was like, rolling her back and hanging out with her mom. So that was good. It's also good again that she trusts me because that time gets up and up and up or she'll just leave me with the baby. I think I've earned that. So mine is just a general, and I know it's gonna take a step back eventually. Like things in this very small season, we got the rhythm down. It feels good. She feels good. Her recovery is in a great place. It's just everything's good. So. Really has nothing to do with my birthday. Except we had a great dinner last night because Amy sent over a dinner. What a good idea. How'd you know to do that?

[Morgan]

I just thought I was trying to think of something.

[Amy]

Is that a gift thing?

[Morgan]

I don't know. I have not ever done that before. But you're not the easiest person to shop for.

[Lunchbox]

It's a good way to put it, per se.

[Amy]

But what's great is it wasn't something that I would have thought of. I get it. I got money. No doubt it's hard to buy something for somebody that has money. But that was something that meant a lot because it wasn't about the money. It was about you thinking, oh, whoa. Like, that was just preparation and time.

[Morgan]

I feel like it was a few weeks ago or something. You mentioned the memory of when my mom made your chicken fried steak.

[Unknown Female Guest]

And then.

[Morgan]

I'm not saying that this is it, but, you know, I sit at my kitchen table and then a cardinal came.

[Amy]

Your mom. The cardinal told you?

[Unknown Female Guest]

No way.

[Morgan]

I'm not saying it.

[Lunchbox]

So it's from Amy's mom.

[Morgan]

Yeah. That's why I really do think that, like. Cause I was really racking my brain, like, what to do a couple weeks ago. And then that's the same chef that we used for your baby shower. And what's really cool is they. They. They're a company that gathers different chefs around town from awesome restaurants. So I was like, wow. Well, no doubt it will be good. And my mom's no longer with us. She knew how to make good chicken fried steak. I don't. So I felt like if I tried to attempt it. Oh, first, this is the. This is how it happened. I started looking at Gold Belly because you're obsessed with it. And I saw that Reba's restaurant in Oklahoma, you can order chicken fried steak from Gold Bellies.

[Amy]

Wow.

[Morgan]

So I thought, I'm going to order Gold Bellies and have it delivered to his house. Only problem is I start reading about it. It's not dairy free ingredients.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

And I was like, well, great. I'm going to ship that to his house and he's going to get sick. So that's when I ordered. That's when I ordered the Lacto Joy. The Lacto Joy was for the Reba's chicken fried steak. And then I thought, well, this could just be dangerous and I don't want him to feel sick. So then I reached out to the chef people and I was like, is a Dairy free chicken fried steak, Southern comfort meal that's kind of will still make him feel good the next day possible. And they were. Yes. And that's the. And then I was like, well, this will be perfect because that's how it went. It went. Judy's not here to do it, so Gold belly maybe could do it. Gold belly can't do it. Dairy free. That's how it happened.

[Amy]

It was awesome. Yeah.

[Morgan]

So shout out Judy.

[Amy]

And we had dinner for everybody because we're always like, Kaitlyn's mother in law's in town and they're from a small town in Oklahoma and so they're not big sushi eaters. They love the southern and so everything's perfect there. So yeah, it was great. Got good night's sleep last night. All good. Okay, that's my. Tell me something good, Amy.

[Morgan]

So I know mine has been about kids stuff a lot, but last night my son had a new PR for his mile at track.

[Amy]

I saw your Instagram.

[Morgan]

And his latest PR was 5 minutes and 12 seconds, like a month ago. It was before we left for the cruise. He was like, I want to break five. And I, we've been working on trying to get him there and what he needs each lap to be to get there. And last night I'm, I'm doing the timer and I set my timer to where each time he crosses the lap, I hit the lap speed.

[Amy]

Do you communicate to him as he's running?

[Morgan]

I'm yelling, got it. And it's annoying, but I don't even know if he can hear me. But I feel like people around me, they're like, what's wrong? What's her problem? But I so each lap. I didn't know you could do that. But my ex husband, his dad, he, he taught me, you go lap and then it'll tell you. Oh, that lap was a minute and 12 seconds. And so I knew his first lap out of the gate was faster than any other first lap. And that's what. Not my ex husband, which he coaches him too, but my ex boyfriend ran track and he was like friggin tic

[Amy]

tac toe with all the exes here.

[Lunchbox]

God dang.

[Morgan]

But that's something he's been. Yeah, that's something. He just saw him Saturday at the cancer 5k that we went to to honor his deceased wife and he was telling him how each, each lap needs to be and it was crazy. He implemented it. And I even text my ex boyfriend last night, the, the, the times and he was like, okay, so now this Is proof it's all mental for him. Like, it's so in his head, he wasn't thinking he can do it, and now he knows he can do it. So now that he hit 5 flat. So last night was 5 flat, and his goal is to break 5, so hopefully next time he can get to 4. 59.

[Amy]

That's wild. If he can break 5, it's wild what he does already as a runner. That's crazy. Yeah, that's cool. I saw it on your story.

[Morgan]

So that I was. And another one of my other adoptive moms, that's a great friend of mine, she was there because her son goes to another school, and she was next to me. We were both yelling. And then when he crossed that and he got first place, which he hasn't ever gotten first place before.

[Amy]

Really?

[Morgan]

Yeah. And so we were freaking out. Like, we were on the bleachers jumping up and down again. I mean, I'm sure those of you with kids that are great at sports, you're probably used to it. I get. I'm telling y', all, this is my first time. Like, and not even me, like, but

[Amy]

it's you, it's your kids.

[Morgan]

I know, but I was an athlete. And, like, my parents didn't get to experience. Like, I wasn't ever the kid that was breaking records. Like, my friend Claire was like, oh, yeah, you got a new pr. She's like, look at you knowing the track language. Pr. And I was like, yeah. She goes, oh, yeah, but you ran. And I was like, but I never pr.

[Unknown Male Guest]

Well, you did pr. You just don't know what it was.

[Morgan]

Exactly. Exactly.

[Amy]

I hope that our baby gets Caitlin's athletic genes. Oh, I hope.

[Morgan]

I mean, y' all are both athletic, though.

[Amy]

It's different.

[Morgan]

I know she's pretty skilled.

[Amy]

It's different. I am medium athletic, above average preparation and cerebral. And I was able to be a pretty good athlete in high school. Only pretty good. But because I played smart, it wasn't because I was, like, a good athlete. She, her whole family, like, her brother's six, seven, played college basketball. They're just an athletic family. I just pray, dear Lord, I don't ask for much. Then Caitlyn's like, maybe our daughter won't want to play sports.

[Morgan]

Well, but here's the thing. Caitlin's also a good dancer.

[Amy]

She's athletic.

[Morgan]

I mean, I get the dancing. I don't know if people consider that a sport, but I feel like, yeah, whatever your kid does, they're going to be. She was gonna be.

[Podcast Announcer]

They.

[Morgan]

I Still don't even call it a shoe.

[Amy]

No, I know it's. People will say that. Why do you say they about your baby? I say because we trained ourselves for five months on the air to never say she the only one who broke. That was Eddie the first day we talked about it.

[Lunchbox]

That's not true.

[Morgan]

Excuse me, I thought you've already verified.

[Lunchbox]

I hate when you talk about that.

[Amy]

Okay, that was a bad day. Thank you, Eddie, tell me something good.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, so mine's like a little thing, but it's a big deal because like this morning when I was driving into work, my playlist was on like it was jam after jam. And you remember that song by Sean Mullins, it was called Lullaby. Oh yeah, Rockaby Everything.

[Amy]

Dude, that came on, it may be called Lullaby, but he goes Rockaby.

[Lunchbox]

And I hadn't heard it. I didn't even know it was on my list of songs. But it popped up and it just like. And then Willie Nelson came on after that. Wonderwall, Space Hog. Like it was just on today. And I felt like, I don't know. It's not always like that. So I said, you know what? This is going to be my. Tell me something good because this made me feel good to start my day like this.

[Amy]

I was play listing last night because I was listening to chill 90s alt rock with the baby. And so I had a good night to a playlist. Good, because she gets enough 90s country, because Caitlin will play that and enough baby songs. She doesn't get enough 90s alt. And so I was looking at it now because I just did a generic like, make a list. Let's see. Don't Look Back in Anger, Oasis.

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Amy]

Better Man, Pearl Jam. Okay, Everybody Hurts, R.E.M. bittersweet Symphony, the Verve, Walk on the Ocean, Toad the Wet Sprocket, Nothing Man. Pearl Jam. Blessed Union of Souls. I believe Matchbox 20 is on too. That's awesome. Maybe it's just like the earth's giving us good playlists. Maybe they figured it out like we need it.

[Lori Siegel]

I'm Lori Siegel, and on Mostly Human, I go beyond the headlines with the people building our future. This week, an interview with one of the most influential figures in Silicon Valley, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.

[Sam Altman]

I think society is going to decide that creators of AI products bear a tremendous amount of responsibility to products we put out in the world.

[Lori Siegel]

From power to parenthood.

[Sam Altman]

Kids, teenagers, I think they will need a lot of guardrails around AI. This is such a powerful and such

[Lori Siegel]

a new thing, from addiction to acceleration.

[Sam Altman]

The world we live in is a competitive world. And I don't think that's going to stop even if you did a lot of redistribution. You know, we have a deep desire to excel and be competitive and gain status and be useful to others. And it's a multiplayer game.

[Lori Siegel]

What does the man who has extraordinary influence over our lives have to say about the weight of that responsibility? Find out on Mostly Human.

[Sam Altman]

My highest order bit is to not destroy the world with AI.

[Lori Siegel]

Listen to Mostly Human on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to your favorite shows.

[Amy]

Morgan or Lunchbox. Morgan, are you ready? Every day I just go to you and you weren't. I'm gonna come to you. Just be ready almost every day.

[Unknown Female Guest]

Yeah, I just keep my mic off cause I type a lot.

[Amy]

Okay, Lunchbox, you go first.

[Unknown Male Guest]

Yeah. Last night I got to take a trip back to childhood because we used to have These cups, these plastic cups, they were like. Looked like little mugs that we would drink out of. And my parents, I guess, found the exact same ones online and ordered them for my kids. So a package came to the house, and my kids opened them up, and they're like, oh, it's just a cup. But to me, it was like, oh, my gosh. It's my childhood. Those are the exact kind of cups we would drink from. So it's pretty cool that my parents were able to find them, send them to my kids. My kids don't care, but for me, it was pretty cool.

[Amy]

Do you guys ever buy your kids stuff and they're more focused on, like, the box or the packaging?

[Unknown Male Guest]

All the time.

[Lunchbox]

And the price, the little babies? Yeah, they do.

[Unknown Male Guest]

All the time.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Like, like, well, when my kids were young, we would buy them all these toys, and then they'll play with the toilet paper roll. I'm like, okay, well, I guess.

[Amy]

What is your advice then? For me?

[Lunchbox]

Don't buy a lot of toys. Cause they really don't play. And then you'll buy a bunch, but there's one that they stick to. And then everything else is just kind of just sits there.

[Amy]

It's just for you, because you got to give them a gift, even though they don't use a gift.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, it's just a waste of money.

[Amy]

Morgan, what do you have?

[Unknown Female Guest]

Well, I'm really excited because obviously paradise is over now, but I had two other shows that are back with new seasons, and I'm so stoked.

[Amy]

What's back?

[Unknown Female Guest]

Daredevil is back on Disney.

[Amy]

Is it? Have you watched an episode?

[Unknown Female Guest]

Yes.

[Amy]

Is it gritty?

[Unknown Female Guest]

It's about the same as the first season.

[Amy]

Yeah, Mike and I were talking about that. We were hoping. And the Punisher is coming back too, right? Yeah, it's like a special.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Amy]

We're hoping that the Disney keeps it as gritty as it was on Netflix.

[Unknown Female Guest]

Yeah, I mean, the first episode was still as intense as the first season, so I think so. And then For All Mankind on Apple

[Amy]

tv, I never got into that. Now. I watched it a long time ago. It's Space. Space Race, right?

[Unknown Female Guest]

Yeah. It's like, basically the Russians beat us instead is kind of the plot that it takes.

[Lunchbox]

I like that.

[Amy]

Well, then you'd hate man in High Castle.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, that's where the Nazis win, because

[Amy]

the Nazis in Japan won.

[Lunchbox]

That's crazy.

[Amy]

Did I. Did I miss. What was it called?

[Unknown Female Guest]

Space for All Mankind?

[Amy]

Did I just not watch it good enough? Like, do you really like it?

[Unknown Female Guest]

I really? Like, I don't know that I like these latest seasons as much as I really liked 1 and 2, but I also really enjoy space stuff.

[Amy]

I think I watched the entire first season of that show and never got back into it. You know what show I wish they would do again is the serial killer show, Mindhunter. They stopped that because Covid shut down production and they had to cancel the show. That was a good show. That was crazy.

[Unknown Female Guest]

I heard that the guy. One of the guy, the actors from paradise was also in that, but I never put two and two together. The guy who plays Gary, the postman in Paradise.

[Amy]

Oh, let's see. Jonathan. Oh, yeah, Cameron Britton. He does. He plays the killer. He plays Ed. Ed, the serial killer. Ed Kemper.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Unknown Female Guest]

Huh.

[Amy]

Oh, wow.

[Unknown Female Guest]

I, like, stumbled upon his Instagram, and he was like, you guys hated me before. And they were talking about Mindhunter, and I was, like, looking at his page and I was like, mindhunter? Who was he? And then, sure enough, he was a serial killer.

[Amy]

Did you watch Mindhunter?

[Morgan]

Yes, I did. And I always think about those shows and wonder, hopefully it doesn't give anybody any ideas.

[Amy]

I think if you're gonna kill, you're gonna kill. I don't think. I don't think you're sitting on the edge and you flip on Netflix and you're like, huh, that's a sign I should go murder.

[Morgan]

That's what I think about when I'm watching. Well, any of these shows not snapped? Because that's like, you snap. Like, something just happens. There's no premeditation, really. But, man, I do worry about all these other things we have out there, these documentaries. And I've thought that too. Crazy stories, even, like, husbands plotting to, like, kill their wives or vice versa. And then it's like someone's mar. Unhappily. And they're like, okay, this is what I'm gonna do.

[Lunchbox]

You know how people, like when they feel like they're not alone in something? They're like, ah, it's kind of okay, you know? And I feel like if a killer is listening to these true crime things, they're like, wow, someone else thought that too. That's kind of cool.

[Amy]

Well, what I would say is this is just a repeat on when video games came out and parents were like, oh, it's making people murder because kids are playing video games. Or there's murdering in video games. They're murdering people.

[Morgan]

Oh, I'm not one of those people.

[Amy]

But no, I'm just saying it's basically the same thing.

[Morgan]

Oh, it is.

[Amy]

Okay. I would. Yeah. It's media affecting you to do something that you normally wouldn't do.

[Lunchbox]

Man.

[Amy]

Unless you're just in a really bad place. It's not going to do that. We consume all this stuff. Did you ever want to kill anybody or eat anybody?

[Lunchbox]

No, no, no. But if you're kind of close to that, like maybe that could.

[Amy]

I don't think there's been proof that that's happened on a large scale. They still with music before video games.

[Lunchbox]

That's true.

[Amy]

Marilyn Manson, he made people kill because songs were bad.

[Lunchbox]

Metallica, the West, Memphis 3.

[Amy]

My point is this has been something happening through generations. You're not crazy for feeling this way because every generation of adult has felt this way. But I do think it's a repeat of what generations before us have been dealing with.

[Lunchbox]

And we're there now.

[Amy]

We're there now. Yeah, we're there now. You know, we're watching a little bit. And I didn't spend a lot of time actually consuming it because it doesn't interest me. But Katelyn and her mom were into it. There's a new Chip and Joanna show maybe on Hulu where they're building like a castle or lake house or something. It is a castle, but it's in Texas.

[Morgan]

They're building it or renovating it.

[Amy]

That part I didn't catch. But it's pretty interesting for a minute. I also have a friend who I didn't know. This was in Chip's wedding. And Chip was in his wedding. I'm not gonna tell you who. Yeah, it's called Fixer Upper. The castle is an eight episode. I guess that's not new. Yeah, Fixer Upper, maybe they just put it on a new platform. But they renovate the historic 100 year old Cottonland Castle in Waco, Texas. But we watched some of that yesterday and I don't have Magnolia Network as a standalone. I would think that's on Hulu or something, but they weren't into it. That castle looked pretty cool.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, sometimes those shows are really good like they always have on. Like it's on Hulu. What do you call that? Home, Home and Garden or whatever. Is it hgtv?

[Morgan]

Hgtv?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, they have that on at the gym sometimes when I'm on the elliptical. Like I didn't know that. One of the New Kids on the Block guys, he did that.

[Amy]

Here's the show.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Amy]

Let me see. Which one? Joey?

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Amy]

Okay, Jonathan.

[Lunchbox]

Yes, Jonathan. Yes, Jonathan.

[Amy]

I believe Jonathan Knight, you're right.

[Lunchbox]

That's him.

[Amy]

Jonathan Knight's love story. Farmhouse fixer.

[Lunchbox]

I didn't know that he was up there. Like, they're renovating something and I'm like, gosh, that guy looks really familiar.

[Amy]

Rocked up. I don't know. He does have a show. Yeah. Him and his brother were both in New Kids.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Jonathan and Joey Jordan. Ah, dang.

[Lunchbox]

So close.

[Morgan]

Then.

[Lunchbox]

Was there a Joey?

[Amy]

Joe? Joey. Joey was the youngest. Please don't go, girl. Yeah. New Kids on the Block members and brothers Jonathan and Jordan Knight are starring in season six of HGTV's Rock the Block.

[Lunchbox]

There we go.

[Amy]

I saw that. Jesse and Eric Decker's show is coming back. Unless. Unless it was an April Fool's. It could have been an April Fool's.

[Morgan]

What's the concept?

[Unknown Male Guest]

What was their show?

[Amy]

Their show? They had one for three seasons. It was called, like, Game Time or something. Oh, game on. It definitely could have been April Fools. So let's see here. If so this was the only time I was got because I believed nothing else. And now I'm thinking to myself, I got got Eric and Jesse game on season four. Why would they post that on April Fool's, though?

[Lunchbox]

Morgan, is that the graphic?

[Unknown Female Guest]

If it was real, it's the graphic.

[Amy]

It says Disney plus and Hulu Premiere 6, 12, 26. We see if that's real.

[Lunchbox]

Does that be a good.

[Amy]

Should I text Eric and be like, dude, was that a joke?

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Amy]

I bet Morgan could figure it out.

[Unknown Female Guest]

I. I think it was a joke.

[Amy]

Okay. That's the only one I got got by.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, it's pretty good.

[Amy]

Kentucky football tried to put out a thing. We're going blue with the field. And I was like, that's not true.

[Lunchbox]

There's no way that's not true.

[Amy]

Boise State was like, we're gonna sue you. They were being funny. Did you get got yesterday at all?

[Morgan]

No. Stevenson just said he forgot his running spikes and we're driving. And he was like, nah, April Fools. Because I don't know. Did I tell y' all how last week he did forget them and that was the whole thing?

[Amy]

Yeah, he had to give him a lecture.

[Morgan]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it was kind of cute that he circled back to that.

[Amy]

Based on social media activity from April 1, 2026, regarding season four of Eric and Jesse's Game on is an April Fool's Day joke. Okay. That's the one that got me. I had one I was going to do, but then I thought better of it. I was gonna say, Eddie and I sold our Raging idiots catalog for $100 million.

[Lunchbox]

No one would believe that. We're all celebrating. We're in Vegas. All right. That is.

[Amy]

Tell me something good.

[Bobby]

That was. Tell me something good. It's time for the good news with Bobby.

[Amy]

She's a seventh grader. Her name's Aisha. She created a six step plan to help combat cyberbullying. You doing that at all? Cyberbullying?

[Morgan]

No kids, thank goodness.

[Amy]

Been pretty good with that, you guys.

[Lunchbox]

No. No one's on Seismic.

[Amy]

Is it even real?

[Lunchbox]

I mean, no one's on online.

[Amy]

Your kids are lying to you.

[Morgan]

That's some good old fashioned, like, in person stuff, but yeah.

[Amy]

Well, it is very widespread, and she wanted to step in, so she created a system called Bright, which encourages potential victims to block, report bullies, ignore harmful messages and get help from trusted adults, use hotlines, and take breaks from technology.

[Morgan]

Bright.

[Amy]

All that's B, R, I, G, H,

[Lunchbox]

T. Oh, that's cool.

[Amy]

So she developed this plan, and now, like, she won a civics B with it, and she's, like, speaking at these places. Dang.

[Morgan]

I want to see if I can remember the analogy right.

[Amy]

It's not an analogy.

[Morgan]

I mean the acronym.

[Amy]

Yeah, go ahead. I don't mean to be a hater there, but I just don't want to hear it on social media. I get bullied on social media. I get cyberbullied. Yeah, when I say something wrong, I get cyberbullied.

[Morgan]

Well, I meant acronym, obviously. Boundaries.

[Amy]

Block and report is B. You know, for one.

[Morgan]

Report.

[Amy]

Hold on. Yeah. Block and report is B, R. Yeah.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Amy]

I.

[Morgan]

Okay. I. I don't know.

[Amy]

You're all for two. Ignore harmful messages.

[Morgan]

Ignore harmful messages. G. Get help.

[Amy]

Get help from trusted adults. It's G. H, but G, H. Now, hold on. I think GH is get. No, no. What's H? H? This is hotlines.

[Lori Siegel]

Oh, hotline.

[Podcast Announcer]

Okay.

[Morgan]

And then T is take breaks.

[Amy]

Yeah, good. We got there. Yeah, eventually. Good job. There's a seventh grader doing that. That's from the Today show with that story. That's what it's all about.

[Bobby]

That was. Tell me something good. It's time for the good news with Amy.

[Amy]

Tell me something good.

[Morgan]

Shout out to Jaheem Warner, who's only 17 years old, and notice, like, all these bystanders staring at this white truck slowly rolling down the road. And they're all like, what do we do? Well, he jumps into action, grabs a pole, breaks a window, gets into the car. Because the driver is unresponsive, he's able to get the car into park and then assist the driver. And he stayed with the woman, reassuring her until emergency responders arrived at the scene.

[Amy]

Dang. A lot of things happen wonderfully there. Just awareness. Just awareness is awesome. I don't think I have it.

[Morgan]

He was just walking home from a

[Amy]

baseball game and just seeing it and then doing something and yeah, that is a great story. That is what it's all about.

[Bobby]

That was. Tell me something good.
