No. We should credit that work is being done that otherwise may not be. I'm not defending OpenAI. I'm defending AI in general, something both OpenAI and Buckmaster (and his co-author) used.
- vips7L 1mo agoYou literally said they _stole_ the work. Why should we give credit to that?
- JumpCrisscross 1mo ago> You literally said they _stole_ the work No, I did not. If someone says either X or Y happened, they didn't say X happened. My exact statement: "Either by OpenAI on its own, OpenAI stealing another's work and finishing it or a researcher using AI to iterate more rapidly than a human alone could" [1]. (Either X, Y [a and b] or Z. An Oxford comma could have helped.) [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49671523 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49671523
