OpenAI should have never been open, named "OpenAI", or advertised itself as being open. At the time of OpenAI's inception, much of the AI risk community deemed it as harmful, although that wasn't spoken out a lot, because it is a delicate affair to criticize misguided effort on AI safety when the status quo was almost no effort being spent on AI safety at all. It is a minor consolation that OpenAI turned out to be less open than initially advertised.

- AlexandrB 6y agoSo "open, like a gate" not "open, like a public resource".
- non-entity 6y agoSomewhat random but this debate about the "Open" in OpenAI's name reminds me of OpenVMS which is not open source, but supports "open systems" like POSIX.
