I spent half a year digging into @OpenAI, the SF-based AI research lab, originally founded by @elonmusk. I started with a few simple questions: Who are they? What are their goals? How do they work? After nearly three dozen interviews, I found so much more. https://t.co/wheK6r3r8j

The messy, secretive reality behind OpenAI’s bid to save the world

The AI moonshot was founded in the spirit of transparency. This is the inside story of how competitive pressure eroded that idealism.

The implicit OpenAI message heard over the years: "Think of how transformative and dangerous AGI may be. Terrifying. Trust us. Whether it's black-boxing technology, legal risk, policy initiatives, investor risk, ... - trust us with everything. We're good. No questions, sorry."

Most interesting bit of the OpenAI announcement: "we intend to license some of our pre-AGI technologies, with Microsoft becoming our preferred partner." Commercializing sub-human AI was previously described as an option “If the timeline is longer” https://www.wired.com/story/compete-google-openai-seeks-investorsand-profits/ …

@Smerity Unfortunately, I must agree that these are reasonable concerns

@SpeakerPelosi Hey Nancy, I wanted to tell you a story about what @realDonaldTrump did to me at @McLeanHospital. I would like to blow my whistle. Neurocapitalism is the new survallience capitalism with NO laws or legislation. #ArtificialIntelligence @HouseDemocrats @Oprah

Must feel odd to see your science favoured at the expense of others. The AI and quantum information research communities have been asking for more federal funding. Trump says he'll give it to them—but everything else is being slashed. https://t.co/WuRUpaBZHD

I literally have been held hostage in AI for the last 16 months because of @realDonaldTrump - there is NO legislation for it and I literally have been isolated and abused with it daily with no one to understand me or turn to for help. I need a way out of this.

@TeslaGong @_KarenHao @OpenAI I have no control & only very limited insight into OpenAI. Confidence in Dario for safety is not high.

@_KarenHao @OpenAI @elonmusk Excellent article. I'm unsettled by their comments on ethics towards the end. Figure out AGI first, and then "understand the ramifications" afterwards?? https://t.co/GsB4rhVo1d
