The board should have been transparent about the dishonesty, especially around financial stakes, and I suspect the OpenAI employees and MSFT would have reacted differently.
- stale2002 2y agoThe dishonesty regarding the ChatGPT release sounds like the best decision that Sam or anyone could have made in the history of the company. The ChatGPT release is what made the AI movement go mainstream. It is why OpenAI is worth ~80 billion dollars. By Gods am I glad that the board wasn't able to stop ChatGPT from being released.
- mr_toad 2y ago> It is why OpenAI is worth ~80 billion dollars. Worth to who?
- tibbar 2y agoWell, that was the valuation of their last fund raising round, which included a tender offer to employees. So it was worth that much to investors and to its current employees.
- stale2002 2y agoWorth is determined in the same way that it is for every single other thing in the world. It is "worth" what someone else is willing to pay for it.
- joquarky 2y agoI thought it wasn't "released" initially in a manner that was meant to be a product. I seem to recall that the release in late November 2022 was only intended to be a way for volunteers on the Internet to experiment with it and provide feedback.
