Either the board is now lying to the employees, or the board monumentally fucked up with their communication publicly (vaguely indicating some serious wrongdoing in their statement yesterday). Either way, the board look like morons. Concerning they're now in charge of some pretty powerful and important tech.
- solarkraft 3y agoI agree that this looks ... weird and uncool. But on a cursory look it seems to me like the boards' intentions are the right ones, while Sam seemed intent on making the most money possible with no regard for any of the Org's founding principles. It's why the "Open" in the name had become a joke. I had no hope that OpenAI would ever deliver on its original mission, because when has a commercial takeover ever been reversed? This may or may not kill OpenAI's lead, but maybe at least it will bring back openness ...
- laurels-marts 3y agoand what will you do with all that openness? i personally hoped that openai would continue to innovate and ship at insane speeds, continue to cut costs so i can continue to use their apis. providing the best ai for the lowest possible price is how they would have made me and the rest of the world better and more prosperous. now we'll have to wait and see what they actually deliver.
- rbancroft 3y agoI'm not a lawyer but their original announcement seemed very close to libel and I would think Sam has some legal options should he choose to pursue them.
- fudged71 3y agoI think the fact that their largest partner and shareholder, Microsoft, wasn’t made aware of this earlier, or even given the chance of having this news drop after trading hours, shows the incompetence.
