The cynicism on this thread is startlingly bad.
OpenAI is one of the top 5 AI research groups in the world. Getting early access to their systems is an amazing opportunity.
Of course they should fund AI startups: $100M isn't much for Microsoft and others to put up as an investment in a Sam Altman-led fund, and innovation is what happens elsewhere.
- mellosouls 5y agoThis is a great company, doing great things but the cynicism towards "Open" AI is of their own making; the original vision that many here supported seemingly left by the wayside as soon as the money started rolling in. There would be less "cynicism" if they had either stuck to the original open plan (or communicated the lack of openness intended better from the get-go); or at the very least were honest about their seeming U Turn and changed the name to reflect the new position - maybe branching the actual open stuff off into a separate and clearly demarcated organisation.
