This may be the end of OpenAI. OpenAI’s big advantage over Google was in production using and making the research available commercially to the public. I think Sam Altman was a big part of that push for commercialization. Now there is a good chance that the “true believers” in AGI have taken over who will want to focus on just trying to achieve that. There is a good chance that true AGI is decades or more away (if ever). Without a product to push, this pure research organization will produce a lot of really cool papers(maybe) but not much else. As the talent see that there are better economic prospects elsewhere, they will leave.
