Take all of the data, take all of the credit, take all of the money, and none of the blame. That would be a better mission statement for OpenAI at this point.

- bigblind 7mo agoI think you've just summed up late stage capitalism.
- giwook 7mo agoWhat a time to be alive.
- Lendal 7mo agoPeople on both sides seem to give capitalism a lot of credit for human traits that existed long before capitalism.
- sigbottle 7mo agoWell the point of capitalism (going back to Adam Smith) is that the invisible hand converts locally selfish behavior to globally good outcomes. The argument is whether or not that emerges. So if your implication was that human trait was selfishness, yes, that is quite the point of capitalism.

- hootz 7mo agoWhat a classic!
- naasking 7mo agoIf an OpenAI model helped someone create a cancer cure, they wouldn't see a dime from that beneficial act. So why should they be liable if someone does something harmful with the model?
- nomadygnt 7mo agoIf an OpenAI model helped someone create a cancer cure I guarantee that they would try to profit as much as possible from that fact. They have even talked in the past about having partial ownership over discoveries made with AI be part of the license. They would be all over that.
- naasking 7mo agoI'm sure if they could, they would, sure, as would any business. That's where competition enters the equation. They can't do it because their competitors would undercut them by requiring no such conditions.

- e_i_pi_2 7mo agoThis is what I'd expect from companies - I don't see why Facebook would get money because they helped people connect to each other who ended up developing a cancer cure, but they definitely should be held accountable for enabling a genocide. You're allowed to operate a business until you cause harm to society, then we can shut it down. I think the big thing you would need is to see the internal emails - if there was ever a case where someone raised a concern about this possibility and it wasn't taken seriously, then they should be liable. If they just never thought about it then it could be negligence but I think if I was on a jury I'd find that more reasonable than knowing it could be a problem and deciding you aren't responsible
- naasking 7mo ago> I don't see why Facebook would get money because they helped people connect to each other who ended up developing a cancer cure, but they definitely should be held accountable for enabling a genocide. Why? What does it even mean to "enable a genocide"? Just saying something isn't an argument. > if there was ever a case where someone raised a concern about this possibility and it wasn't taken seriously, then they should be liable. Again, why? How is this any different than electricity as a tool, which has both beneficial and harmful uses? AI is knowledge as a utility, that's the position here.
- yoyohello13 7mo agoThat’s just the slogan of the US.
