- dalbasal 3y agoIs the alternative theory that the ownership, control and leadership of OpenAI is immaterial?
- meitham 3y agoOpenAI success is unfortunately largely based on the one ruthless decision to ignore ethics and train the model on the work of millions of artists and authors. I don’t know if Sam himself was behind this decision. I doubt Aaron Schwartz would have done the same.
- dalbasal 3y agoOk... So the alternative to great man theory, in this case, is terrible man theory... I'm not following. If focusing on control over openai, is great man theory... What's the contrary notion?
