The nuclear arms race lead to the cold war, not a "good outcome" IMO. It wasn't until nations started imposing those regulations that we got to the point we're at today with nuclear weapons.

No, it's just counter to the idea that it was "employee power" that brought sam back. It was capital and the pursuit of more of it. It always is.

My guess is(like the 4chan post said) it would be a board vote.

by Xelynega 3y ago
Could it be possible that the board was just naive and believed that they would be able to control a capped-profit arm, but the inevitable mechanisms of capital eventually took over once they let them in?

There's no law that saves your stock options from your lack of understandings of non profits. If you thought stock options tied to a non profit were going to always increase, I have a bridge to sell you.

The only evidence I have is that the board members that were removed had less business connections than the ones that replaced them. The point of the board is to ensure the charter is being followed, when the biggest concern is "is our

> Experts/lawyers who have a material stake in getting this right have signed off on it. How does that work when we're talking about non-profit motives? The lawyers are paid by the companies benefitting from these conflicts, so

OpenAI is a non profit and the board members are not allowed to own shares in the for profit. That means the remaining conflicts are when the board has to make a decisions between growing the profit or furthering the mission statement. I wo

Whats the point of Microsoft appointing a board member if not to sway decision in ways that benefit them?

by Xelynega 3y ago
Because that would be a conflict of interest between the for-profit OpenAI corporation and Adam. How does that conflict impact his ability to make decisions on behalf of the non-profit corporation? Basically what about his ownership of poe

Do people really not understand how non-profit boards work? The employees don't have a right to sue any of the board members over loss of profit, since the board is not concerned with profit. Adam would have a conflict of interest if h

So they're mad that they decided to work for a company that was ultimately controlled by a non-profit that wasn't aligned with their interests? Not to "victim blame", but they could have googled what a "non-profit&q

Who's paying those programmers to solve those problems you've identified the market doesn't care about? It sounds like that would require an economic shift more than "just add chatgpt"

I chatgpt translated this: "Our business model can't afford to pay enough translators so we have been replacing them with chatGPT, and enough of our users haven't complained that we consider it a success"

If thousands of people have done it before you than why isn't it abstracted to the point that it's just as easy to tell an LLM to do it as it is to do it yourself?
257.
by Xelynega 3y ago
I think LLMs are the wrong solution for this problem. Why make something that produces low level code based off of existing low level code instead of building up meaningful abstractions to make development easier and ensure that low level c

I could be wrong, but iirc the HDMI they use and full size HDMI are pin compatible. It's likely they just chose the smaller connector so they can break both out and have a smaller board footprint(as opposed to having a larger board or

There's just something about the "techiness" of cryptocurrencies that makes people think current financial laws don't apply to them.

I think you have this a bit backwards. To my knowledge the FSF doesn't consider firmware blobs with no way to flash "part of certification" because it would be inoractical to do so. By definition "software you can't
