> This sounds like a good idea when it's done with reasonable things - you wouldn't want your AI to be racist would you? - but giving the people who run the servers for ChatGPT the ability to inject their own morals and political beliefs is a very real concern for people.
Here's how you solve it: demand open source models, or at least, open source access to network weights (I think it's kind of hard to open the training itself since it requires so much compute). Demand OpenAI to actually be open.
When Stable Diffusion was opened, the first thing people did was removing the morality systems to prevent NSFW - either interrupts like this, or even retrained the network to better generate human anatomy (which has advantages that goes beyond NSFW images). There is no effective control that Stability AI can impose on this technology now.
As long as OpenAI products are closed behind a SaSS, ChatGPT and other models will be controlled by them.

Demand OpenAI to actually be open. You can demand whatever you'd like, but if no mechanism for human coordination exists that can try to fulfill the aggregate desires of the population (assuming you could get consensus on your excellent idea), you might as well just skip the middle part and wish for Utopia right from the get go. The forms of governance that exist on this planet (most of which we designed decades/centuries ago) are simply not up to the task. It is physically possible to design superior methodologies (the laws of physics do not prevent it), but it seems that it is not metaphysically possible (human minds will not allow it to happen).
