If his entire personal diary got exposed and that's the worst that's in it, good for him.

If his entire personal diary got exposed and that's the worst that's in it, good for him.
- Kinrany 5mo agoHow did the diary end up in the court files in the first place?

- arvid-lind 5mo agothere's even an episode of The Office where this happens. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3GbCByGltU&t=214s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3GbCByGltU&t=214s

- layer8 5mo agoOpenAI themselves submitted the diary as evidence back in October.
- Kinrany 5mo agoSo surely they volunteered it?
- applfanboysbgon 5mo agoI'm curious what you're writing in your diary that's worse than blatantly admitting to fraud of this scale. He publicly misled people about OpenAI's "mission" as a nonprofit, while seeking to enrich himself to the tune of $1 billion(!!!) dollars. Also, his entire diary was not in fact made public. The attorneys only quoted the parts that were relevant to the case, which pertained to OpenAI's transition from non-profit.
- siva7 5mo agoHow about wiping out an entire civilization? Not even necessary to hide this thought in your diary if you have enough power. I've seen today - in fact any day of this year - much worse things than his diary thoughts.
- applfanboysbgon 5mo agoWell, gee. When you put it like that, Hitler existed, so really we can't fault anybody for anything short of orchestrating the genocide of 12 million people.

- avazhi 5mo agoYeah bro, the US pulling foreign aid is directly causative of somebody starving to death. lol

- _zoltan_ 5mo agoWorse? There is nothing wrong with wanting 1B. Anybody who said they wouldn't want it is lying.
- exfalso 5mo agoNonsense. What the hell would you do with 1B? Give it to charities maybe. Maybe set up an investment where dividends are paid to charity. Running out of ideas
- fragmede 5mo agoYou've run out of ideas already? Try harder! What charities? Why? How much, to which ones? How involved with those charities are you going to be? What dent in history are you going to make with that billion? With or without your name attached.

- gizajob 5mo agoDidn’t even buy a Yacht or a Warhol yet.
- Angostura 5mo agoPerhaps the commenter would just like to lead a contented life without having to bother with all of that
- codechicago277 5mo agoCompletely missing the other costs associated with any of these things. If money was enough to “feed the hungry” Musk or Gates would have already done it. The real problem is systemic injustice, like governments stealing foreign aid that’s meant to go to the poor. Money can’t always solve these. Time is more valuable than money and unless you have tons of time and space that simulator is just an expensive paperweight.

- tcp_handshaker 5mo agoWhat about stealing 12 million books of copyrighted human culture, at massive scale, and then enclosing the value created inside proprietary, investor-backed systems? Something wrong with that? What happens if you go tomorrow, downtown San Francisco, and leave a bookstore with one book without paying?

- temp8830 5mo agoEven though the founders of OpenAI are not exactly someone you'd root for, comparisons to theft are silly. By that token it would be illegal to go into a library, read a book, and actually remember what was in it. Except in this case the reader is a robot. LLMs are such a fundamentally different thing that existing laws don't really make sense. Wait! Put the pitchfork down! I know, I know, stealing is stealing, and OpenAI founders are slimy. But what about derivative works? Why is a human making a hip-hop track allowed to sample, and a robot is not? Again, LLMs are such a fundamentally different thing that existing laws don't really make sense. It's actually surprising in retrospect that nobody did this sooner. Even back in the 80s books about computers would gush about how a computer has enough memory to store an entire library's worth of books. It's just that someone finally figured out how to put an index on it. Where I agree: given that this is basically the sum of all humanity's knowledge, the company should have been a non-profit. It was a non-profit. And then greed won.
