I think Sam Altman has played a clever business move here, they can use this excuse immediately after the Hugging Face leaks and it's not going to be dismissed willy-nilly. Whereas long term they probably wanted to end their partnership with Cursor anyway. I bet Dario will be happy about this too, but maybe the compute deal prevents him from doing similar anytime soon.
Very interesting times we live in...
- semiquaver 1mo agoIs it really an excuse? As the release points out, musk admitted under oath to distilling OpenAI’s models to produce xai models on an ongoing basis. Whatever you think about goose for the gander wrt IP theft, I wouldn’t voluntarily do business with a competitor who was actively and brazenly flouting my terms, would you?
- userbinator 1mo agoIt's amusingly ironic to talk about "IP theft" in the context of AI models.
- semiquaver 1mo agoShorthand. I agree it’s hypocritical and theft isn’t the right word, but we make do with the words we have.
- aeternum 1mo agoOpenAI's models are distilled from your HN posts
- semiquaver 1mo agoQuite sure I covered that aspect, thanks.
