    Somebody should slap some kind of lock on that dudes cockholster. Sick of reading his name. Never interested in hearing his opinion on anything again for as long as I live.

      Right now it’s an instance of broken clock being right. OPENAi is a nonprofit. Its proceeds should go into further research and the models should be open sourced - like they used to be! Instead they want to milk it as much as possible quickly.

    Grifters trying to stymie competing grifts is the ideal use of our throughly corrupt court system. Just the perfect venue for that. It’s like an inception of lies and money.

    So is sounds like effectively his donation was supposed to force them to stay open and develop tech on the cheap that he could then take to use in his commercial systems.

      Yeah it is kind of dumb that you can turn from being non-profit to for-profit if it turns out you’ve struck gold. Cheapens the value of non-profits everywhere if they can turn that around whenever they feel like it.

        they didnt strike gold, they are trying to inflict their value crash on the public market. effects will be far reaching, including but not limited to people’s retirement plans.
