Will this ever die? It feels like every time a post is made about OpenAI that someone loves to mention it.

- codetrotter 2y agoWas throwaway314159 already taken, or was the misspelling accidental?
- throwaway314155 2y agoIt was taken. I decremented by 1 until it wasn't taken.
- codetrotter 2y agoI guess we will eventually arrive at pi being exactly equal to 3 after all, then!
- aleph_minus_one 2y agoWhy not 2.99999999998? ;-)
- batch12 2y agoNo, it will probably never die. It is reinforced by the dissonance between their name and early philosophy and their current actions.
- Asraelite 2y agoIt should though, it's a stupid way to phrase the argument. OpenAI pivoted from non-profit to for-profit and it's fine to criticize them for that, if that's the argument you're making. But focusing on their name specifically doesn't make sense. I mean, what do you expect, that they rebrand to something else and lose a ton of brand recognition in the process? You can't possibly expect a company do that when they have no incentive to.
- batch12 2y agoYou also can't expect people to disregard the history of the company and the meaning of words because it has decided to change its direction. It seems to me that they made the choice to not rebrand and accept the fallout because it's less damaging to them than the loss of brand recognition. Why do you feel the need to defend them?
- int_19h 2y agoIt will die when it stops being such blatant, in-your-face trolling by SamA.
- chipsrafferty 2y agoIt's worth mentioning during every conversation about this company
