There's literally no chance of OpenAI being anywhere close to AGI, and they know it. There's literally no chance of doomsday scenarios, and they know it. Howe

There's literally no chance of OpenAI being anywhere close to AGI, and they know it.
There's literally no chance of doomsday scenarios, and they know it.
However, they do know that AI/ML is used in many applications where mistakes are costly, they don't know how to properly deal with it and don't care as long as they can get people to use it. So they are paying little more than lip service to safety because they know no one will be able to verify their claims.
- ben_w 2y agoWhat you're saying is what Yann LeCun says (and therefore presumably what he thinks), and appears to be what Facebook is doing by publishing their models (just like they appear to have paid little more than lip service to content moderation leading to them being named by the UN as having played a "determining role" in the Myanmar genocide). I know people at OpenAI, who have said "we should join the 'Pause AI' protest [outside our office]", so I have reason to think OpenAI is 100% sincere. They may also be wrong, I hope they are, but definitely 100% sincere.
- troupo 2y agoOh, some people at OpenAI may be 100% sincere. The org and leadership are anything but. After all, they need to make money somehow.
