OpenAI Execs Mass Quit as Company Removes Control From Non-Profit Board and Hands It to Sam Altman

like the taste of their feet.

I mean wikipedia managed to do it. It just requires honest people to retain control long enough. I think it was allowed to happen in wikipedia's case because the wealthiest/greediest people hadn't caught on to the potential yet.

There's probably an alternate timeline where wikipedia is a social network with paid verification by corporate interests who write articles about their own companies and state-funded accounts spreading conspiracy theories.

There are infinite timelines, so, it has to exist some(wehere/when/[insert w word for additional dimension]).

AI models can outmatch most oncologists and radiologists in recognition of early tumor stages in MRI and CT scans.
Further developing this strength could lead to earlier diagnosis with less-invasive methods saving not only countless live and prolonging the remaining quality life time for the individual but also save a shit ton of money.

That's an excellent point! Why oh why would a tech bro start a non-profit? Its always been PR.

That is a good point, but I think I'd like to make the distinction of saying LLM's or "generic model" is a garbage concept, which require power & water rivaling a small country to produce incorrect results.

Neural networks in general that can (cheaply) learn on their own for a specific task could be huge! But there's no big money in that, since its not a consolidated general purpose product tech bros can flog to average consumers.

With Puff Daddy? Tech bros do the coolest stuff.

A stopped clock is still correct twice a day.

Guess I'm out of the loop. Who's Elmo?

Can't do crimes if you're rich. It's in the Constitution

Money doesn't have any advantages in other countries? When did that happen?

Well maybe not on paper but they did leverage it a lot when questioned

It's the famous "As long as your not Google, Amazon or Apple" licence.

That's because Facebook is selling your data and access to advertise to you. The better AI gets across the board, the more money they make. AI isn't the product, you are.

OpenAI makes money off selling AI to others. AI is the product, not you.

The fact facebook release more code, in this instance, isn't a good thing. It's a reminder how fucked we all are because they make so much off our personal data they can afford to give away literally BILLIONS of dollars in IP.

Please take no offense in this, I will probably not use your name suggestions, SatansMaggotyCumFart

I mean killer robots from the future could solve many problems. I can elaborate, but you're going to have to think 4th dimensionally.

oh no i hate that place. i'm scared

Things easily could be better for the vast majority of us in the present day, but let's not forget how shit we were in the past as well.

I also love making sweeping generalizations about a stranger's knowledge on this forum. The smaller the data sample the better!

There is no AI. It’s all shitty LLM’s. But keep sucking that techbro cheesy balls. They will never invite you to the table.

He is happy to be scapegoat as long as exit with a ton of money.

That was a worthwhile watch, thank you for making my life better.

I await the coming AI apocalypse with hope that I am not awake, aware, or sensate when they do whatever it is they'll do to use or get rid of me.

Greed is the fundamental flaw that makes humanity awful.

Why would they own equity in a non-profit?

Nothing got stolen...this lie gets old.

Literally anything that requires knowing facts to inform writing. This is something LLMs are incapable of doing right now.

Just look up how many R's are in strawberry and see how chat gpt gets it wrong.

May I ask what kind of tasks...

No, you may not.

do it genius

Did the AI suggest you do that? Better ask it!

Please do. Stream it too so we all can enjoy.

That's not the incentive you think it is.

Make sure you go deep. Need to get the whole thing to real show you're serious.

Get to it then. 🤷‍♂️

I always steered clear of OpenAI when I found out how weird and culty the company beliefs were. Looked like bad news.

Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.

TSMC’s leadership dismissed Altman as a “podcasting bro” and scoffed at his proposed $7 trillion plan to build 36 new chip manufacturing plants and AI data centers.

This is how we get Terminators in this timeline?!

It literally promises to generate content, but I think the implied promise is that it will replace parts of your workforce wholesale, with no drop in quality.

It's that last bit that's going to be where the drama happens

They want AGI, which would match or exceed human intelligence. Current methods seem to be hitting a wall. It takes exponentially more inputs and more power to see the same level of improvement seen in past years. They've already eaten all the content they can, and they're starting to talk about using entire nuclear reactors just to power it all. Even the more modest promises, like pictures of people with the correct number of fingers, seem out of reach.

Investors are starting to notice that these promises aren't going to happen. Nvidia's stock price is probably going to be the bellwether.

Accuracy, consistency, explainability.

It delivers on what it promises to do for many people who use LLMs. They can be used for coding assistance, Setting up automated customer support, tutoring, processing documents, structuring lots of complex information, a good generally accurate knowledge on many topics, acting as an editor for your writings, lots more too.

Its a rapidly advancing pioneer technology like computers were in the 90s so every 6 months to a year is a new breakthrough in over all intelligence or a new ability. Now the new llm models can process images or audio as well as text.

The problem for openAI is they have serious competitors who will absolutely show up to eat their lunch if they sink as a company. Facebook/Meta with their llama models, Mistral AI with all their models, Alibaba with Qwen. Some other good smaller competiiton too like the openhermes team. All of these big tech companies have open sourced some models so you can tinker and finetune them at home while openai remains closed sourced which is ironic for the company name.. Most of these ai companies offer their cloud access to models at very competitive pricing especially mistral.

The people who say AI is a trendy useless fad don't know what they are talking about or are upset at AI. I am a part of the local llm community and have been playing around with open models for months pushing my computers hardware to its limits. Its very cool seeing just how smart they really are, what a computer that simulates human thought processes and knows a little bit of everything can actually do to help me in daily life.

Terrence Tao superstar genius mathematician describes the newest high end model from openAI as improving from a "incompentent graduate" to a "mediocre graduate" which essentially means AI are now generally smarter than the average person in many regards.

This month several comptetor llm models released which while being much smaller in size compared to openai o-1 somehow beat or equaled that big openai model in many benchmarks.

Neural networks are here and they are only going to get better. Were in for a wild ride.

Serious question though, has any other company matched their 4o model yet? Maybe Claude?

When he's done he'll be known as skynet

Alt Right AI

But their operation cost is 5 billions per year, they plan to raise 6.5 billions from microsoft, apple and nvidia this year and they have not raised it yet. If their model fail next year and sales not happen will shareholders of big 3 pay 6.5 billions in 2026. There were couple companies that raised such amount of money at start like for example Docker Inc. Where is Docker now in enterprise ? They needed to change licensing model to even survive and their operation cost is just storage of docker containers. I doubt openai will survive this decade. Sam Altman is just preparing for Microsoft takeover before the ship is sunk.

Cos he want to control it
