What is this thing of people not using their shift key anymore? Sam Altman does the same. I don’t trust these people. ;)

#94Oh man. https://twitter.com/apples_jimmy/status/1725615804631392637?... Really wonder what this is all about. Edit: My bad for not expanding. Noone knows the identity of this "Jimmy Apples" but this is the latest in a series of correct leaks he's made for Open AI for months now. Suffice to say he's in the know somehow.
Lolwut? Who is Jimmy Apples?
Don’t you know?
Random twitter guy has thoughts on $Current_Event and a witty quip about the “vibes”. It’s crucial we post this without context to the discussion

...that's a random post, Jimmy's not some OpenAI insider lmao. Hope he sees this
Pretty sure he works at OpenAI. Beyond that, hard to say how important he is.

But those are people who have some skin in the game right? And shareholders can change the board structure right?
I was at amzn when jeff formed the first board. No skin in the game, and no shareholders with any votes. I gather this is pretty typical.
But Jeff was the shareholder and those were his nominees right? Not to mention he was mostly able to pick the board as needed. In for profit corporation there is a clear ultimate ownership in shareholders. No such thing here.

#97Yeah, this is not a good sign for OpenAI. Or at least not for those who appreciate what OpenAI was working to become.
I guess we'll see much faster enshittification now?

> Is there some weird chic thing where you intentionally don’t use capital letters? What is up with that ridiculous behaviour? I was wondering the same thing. Always, on purpose, avoiding starting sentences with capital letters. Both this guy and Sam Altman. What ... why ... ?
I've seen this from a couple of VP/SVP level execs at companies I've worked. My pet theory is it's some kind of weird "My time is too important to even use the shift key" signal. They probably add up the cumulative amount of time they would spend using the shift key and multiply by their compensation and realize they could buy another car if they just optimized that useless key out of their lives.
at this point, it's work to keep autocorrect from fixing this.

#99Greg is the one who announced GPT-4. Sam enabled Greg and vice-versa. The next AI winter may have just begun...

Because two executives were ousted from a company? That's dramatic.
Re: Greg Brockman quits OpenAI
#100His last sentence is the main hint. Disagreement over dangers of AGI discoveries and how to handle I’d guess.
Given the way the board announcement ended on the commitment to the original charter of AI for everyone and the way this mention of safety is being thrown in, I suspect it may have been strong disagreements over continuing to be closed with research in the name of safety or open with the research community in the sake of advancement for all.
GPT4 has been closed for a long long time, nothing technical was ever released. The board can't suddenly one day wake up from a long sleep and decide that things have to become open right this minute.
