    How does this differ from e.g. online banking? Does every user manually check encryption algorithms and keys?

    Don't know why this is downvoted. It is possible (and probably desirable) to build applications where only certain data is stored on chain.

    It is at least partially automated. The issue was closed by a bot which requires a star to re-open.

    But you would say you used "social engineering" to manipulate an organization: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_engineering_(security)

    Alignment refers to the process of aligning AI with human values. I don't see why a superhuman AI would require different prompting than is in use today.

    I'm much more interested in lower parameter models that are optimized to punch above their weight. There is already interesting work done in this space with Mistral and Phi. I see …

    Equating Ilya to the average B.S. in Computer Science is like equating Sam to a used car salesman. Neither are true and both were instrumental in the success of OpenAI.

    If it was a simple disagreement in direction then (1) the transition wouldn't be so abrupt and (2) they wouldn't publicly call him a liar.

    Your comment makes it seem like a bad thing. Waymo has the right approach: only applying their technology where they are confident it will not cause issues.
