It is a for profit company in everything but name. That's my main complain.
It has Musk, Thiel and Livingston amongst its initial investors, all known as the greatest philantropists of our time. /s
I don't understand why they put this thin veneer on top of what they are doing. Maybe Thiel was burnt with the bad press surrounding Palantir and this is preventive damage control.
- awestroke 4y agoIt's literally a nonprofit
- eternalban 4y agoThat means absolutely nothing to billionaire control freaks. If OpenAI's products become the next Googlie thing (and here I was worried about Cloudflare <smack head>) then these are the future influencers. This is society mainlined on TikTok levels of manipulation. Surely you have adapted to ChatGPT's requirements for interacting, have you not? There is a name for this: social engineering.
- int_19h 4y agoThe "chat" part of ChatGPT is the least of long-term concerns. This whole AI stuff is going to be the capital (as in means of production) that's going to take increasingly big role in the future in general, to the point where it may dominate everything else in terms of sheer value. And here we are, concentrating it from the get-go in megacorps that already dominate the market.

- ivalm 4y agoIt is not literally a non-profit. As far as legally recognized organizations it is a limited partnership with a now minority ownership held by a non-profit.
