Altman is doing what he knows how to do: network with people to grab as much cash as possible. Not sure if people expected him to be any different given that is basically his history.

OpenAI has a lot of momentum so things like this will not seem to matter a lot but it's likely at some point we'll look back a this week and say this is where it started to go wrong.

Ouch. The end of that tweet must sting

Can you explain what this alludes to? Him lobbying for AI regulation that incidentally positions his company as the de facto standard?
Havoc
He’s seen as trying to pull up the ladder behind him & trying to use regulation as a moat while claiming it’s to manage risk for humanity

pretty sure this is satire and that's not an actual Ex-OpenAI employee. Which can still be fun/poignant and all, but not to get confused.

It certainly is a clever employment of language as bait.

Everyone talks about weights, weights this, weights that. But what are they checking the weight of?

Just because it's satire doesn't mean it's not 100% correct.

Well, to qualify as satire, it actually must mean exactly that, but you might still resonate with it.

Seriously, who really cares? It's starting to seem more like a plotline from a high school drama than a mature approach to handling communication issues..

When did he even start working at OpenAI? I subscribed to him when he was doing the GTA-AI stuff and thought he was interesting for releasing NNfS, but I never noticed that he had begun working at OpenAI.

No I don't but I'm sure you'll make sure everybody knows. Talk about narcissism.

Ok, I resign too. I'm not an OpenAI employee but I always follow the trends.
