China is the boogeyman. Any reason to believe NSA/FBI or UK/India or anyone who will follow the limits. If singularity is end of world, anyone at 99.999% singularity will rule the world, so it is naive that academic or political e

Does the article has anything to say apart from clickbait? From article, Google is working on a 3nm chip with TSMC, so it is surely not abandoned. Current chip sometimes run hot, that's bad but not an existential crisis. Not all AI thi

OpenAI the charity would have survived only as an ego project for Elon doing something fun with minor impact. Only the current setup is feasible if they want to get the kind of investment required. This can work if the board is pragmatic an

Apple will not be value for money for desktops, especially if you need large RAM, disk. Top of the line Max won't beat mid range 40xx. For laptop though build quality, battery life screen etc. matter. I was looking for a personal deskt

I read the comments, most of them are superficial as if someone with no inside knowledge will post. His understanding of humans is also weak. Book deals and speeches as a motivator is hilarious.

Considering CEO2 rebelled next day and CEO3 allegedly said he'll quit unless board comes out with truth, doesn't provide much confidence in their adulthood.

That is the idea, keep GoT behind the scene. Don't dump it on the street. When you have a new king, make sure he isn't usurped next day and population is revolting outside the gates of Red Keep.

Worldcoin has no conflict of interest with OpenAI. Unless he gave tech for free causing great loss to the OpenAI it is simply finding an early beta customer. Also, to fire over something so trivial would be equally if not more stupid. It is

If you know the company will implode and you'll be CEO of a shell, it is better to get board to reverse the course. It isn't like she was part of decision making process

Shows how out of out of touch board was. Hiring an external CEO as interim. In 30 days OpenAI will bleed heavily and they'll have a shell of a potential centicorn.

Sure, they can but that would be against all the safe alignment values they are pushing. They'll lose billions in current and potential investment and will spend the life in lawsuits. Also, govt may not like giving away cutting age tec

Share Market values growth. Board won't like if MS is rerated as utility. MS is behaving as if AI will be as big as the Internet and wants to capture the biggest slice in it. Hence betting the company and will respond appropriately.

MS is betting the company on AI. It is everywhere across the org. They won't play with kiddie glove. You want to see ruthless businessmen in action sure pick up the fight. They'll be happy to lose 10 billion plus some more if it m

Not just Sam and Greg. From all rumors, they'll get a cream of researchers from OpenAI, plus access to most of already developed tech. Not sure about training data etc. that they may have to recreate. And from my understanding, in LLM

Sam had no stake in OpenAI. So, any potential deca billion value is hypothetical. He would have to do a U-turn and fight with the board to get his cut. Now he'll get his cut from MS. This AI division will have some further restructurin
