tldr: Sama stepped down, Chief technology officer Mira Murati appointed interim CEO to lead OpenAI
What do we make of it?
Maybe they will be a bit more reasonable with their content filtering, some the shit you see now is ridiculous.
The competition for running locally is catching up to gpt. I’m happy to pay for everything but openai is so restricted these days, you’re better off with running something locally.
He is the one who pushed for the crippling censoring “alignment”
not even an hour , and mira’s wiki page is already updated. this is wild
I think this is overall negative, i get the sense that there is a glass ceiling…
Sounds like he LIED to the board and the kicked him off. What did he lie about? Did they crack AGI, or is the board upset that Altman appears to be pro-regulation?
Sounds like he LIED to the board and the kicked him off.
That’s my take, too.
It seems he told them things that sounded really good, but weren’t actually true.
A bit like LLM inference, that.
My guess is some kind of exploit, feature or flaw that he knew about with potential PR impacts, that he didn’t tell them. Something akin to knowing Bing would go Sydney.
Probably not a good sign. Investors probably want someone who is more conventional and mainstream, to drive more profit.
They going to make it open again? They forgot their mission.,
They will open the capped profit.
We’ll see about this.
No the opposite, only Ilya Sutskever is left from the founders on the board since Greg Brockman quit too. It will be more closed up and profit oriented to keep AI “safe”.
Did the AI coordinate his sacking?
Looks like a more pro-government guy is taking the seat. More restrictions, more surveillance, censorship, more misuse of personal data, manipulation and propaganda. Hopefully alternatives to gpt 4 will see the light of day soon
good news, if openai really opens up
What gives you that expression, looks like completely the opposite. Now only Ilya left on the board, Greg Brockman quit too. It looks more and more like a normal corporate board.
Probably the opposite will happen.
The founder is thrown out of the company when new investors gain control. That’s life.
This will be about AI safety.
The irony now is that Grok will have the latest info on this as people are tweeting about it
Look at the board members. It’s Open Philanthropy/Effective Altruism coup to prevent AI progress, not these mundane concerns like accounting.
RIP OpenAI.
