This was so predictable. It seems they only care about profits now, and also positioning themselves to be a monopoly, so they really haven’t been compatible with the non-profit model for a while. Especially since they just raised more than $6 billion.

It’s truly amazing to me that a “non-profit” that has disingenuously represented itself from day one, and is based almost entirely on the theft of intellectual property that would get normal individuals prosecuted out the ass, can continue to rake in absurd amounts of cash. I really dislike this company.

The use of "Open" in their name might be against consumer laws in Europe.

Absolutely nobody saw that coming...

Next you're going to tell me they were never open source (they were never open source).

Capitalism is already a superintelligence, and its goals are misaligned with those of humanity.

Sam Altman is and always has been yet another tech bro.

Fuck these cunts.

God I hope open source models eat their lunch.

Just guillotine the rich already

Shocking. Absolutely shocking, I say. It's almost like we've seen this exact pattern a hundred times before.

ClosedAI

I'm shocked, I tell you.

How can it be a thing to just make a non profit organization into a for profit organization?

I thought non profits have benefits when it comes to taxation and regulations.
Why can it be allowed that the new for profit organization can just reap the rewards from those benefits that it used to grow into what it is now?

That seems to me like it should be plainly illegal.

PSA: There is a super easy to use app called "GPT4ALL" which lets literally any idiot run an open source LLM on their local machine. (As long as you don't go fucking crazy and try to run a huuuuge model, that is)

Smaller models run at pretty good speeds on my RX 5700 XT. Yes, you heard that right, you can use Vulkan to run them on an AMD GPU

Well yeah. They're selling snake oil, and they better get as much money as they can now. That cash is going to dry up in a couple of years, and then where will they be. They'll have to do real work again.

I was looking for a job in the San Fran area by keyword for a product I am a near expert on. I happened to find a listing for a position that I was qualified for at OpenAI. The post was truly creepy and had a weird fascist smear all over it where they were writing in all caps, multiple times that there would be no work from home or even hybrid work. It was unnecessary and very strange. I ran away and never looked back. Nothing of this surprises me.

Member when the daily show (or was it Last Week Tonight) would show clips of Jared Kushner and have Gilbert Gottfried voice him?

That’s what needs to happen for this bro.

(RIP Gilbert)

AI is going to save the world, but we need to maximize profit for our shareholders to do it!
