Commissar SFLUFAN Posted November 19, 2023 Author Share Posted November 19, 2023 Quote A source close to Sam Altman said the board had agreed in principle to resign and allow Altman and Brockman to return, thus avoiding a 5pm Saturday deadline by OpenAI staff who were set to resign, per the Verge 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinIon Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Well, when I was guessing what a sufficient reason to fire Altman was, I was thinking this board was acting rationally. It’s increasingly looking like they’re just clowns who are about to be tossed themselves. I think the more exciting possibility is that basically everyone at Open AI resigns to join Altman’s new company, Open AI continues on in some form, probably dominated by the non-profit research side, and Altman’s new company spins up a new LLM.

unogueen Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Good thing that management is being exposaed for being little more than surveillance and data entry. Too bad it's going to be replaced with something that does all that better without the concept of meals or rest. Time to enjoy even more micromanagement from something that cannot ever not see you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CitizenVectron Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Sam Altman’s Ousting and Possible Return to OpenAI: What We Know APPLE.NEWS OpenAI stunned employees, investors and much of Silicon Valley on Friday by ousting Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman, who more than any other figure had emerged as the face of artificial... Summary from era user: Quote Altman clashed with the board on safety, speed of development, and the commercialization of the company Altman was raising money behind the boards back, but in the companies name from Middle Eastern Sovereign Wealth and Soft Bank Altman wanted funds to spin off a new company with focus on AI hardware and AI chips These new investors and company did not share OpenAI's governance model Definitely makes Altman look bad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legend Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 I’m torn because I think there needs to be more responsible development and deployment of AI tech, but the “safety” people at open AI work on “problems” that are based on self-serving delusions of a malicious genie being let out of its box.

OpenAI is essentially a research organization that specializes in artificial intelligence. An imperfect analogy would be that it's similar to Mozilla (the organization behind the Firefox browser). It's the organization that's responsible for the development for products such as DALL-E and GPT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point in time, I don't see how anybody other than another big player can get hold of enough training data to model their AIs.
