Is Sam a liar? Why? Is the board corrupted? By whom?
Will they all be hired by Microsoft?
Will Facebook make everything fade into nothingness by publishing something bigger than ChatGPT4?
Golden times to be a journalist.
The fact that these people aren't currently willing to "rewind the clock" about a week shows the dangers of human ego. Nothing permanent has been done that can't be undone fairly simply, if all parties agree to undo it. What we're watching now is the effect of ego momentum on decision making. Try it. It's not a crazy idea. Put everything back the way it was a week ago and then agree to move forward. It will be like h…

Really? Why is that? Because of disputes which has been there since humans first uttered a sound?

This is why I detest YC (despite taking part in salicious gossip on here due to my social media addiction). A couple YC friends of mine have been very explicit about how they detest the conspiratorial YC hivemind.

Does this whole thing remind anyone else of the tech community’s version of celebrity gossip?
It's an interesting saga though and as a payer of ChatGPT+ I feel staked in it.
Given the general lack of useful communication, it would be funny if Sam Altman returns to OpenAI at the same time all the employees are quitting. ;)

Her accusations against him are for acts that supposedly happened when she was to young have formed long term memory of them. She also thinks he is hacking her WiFi and somehow shadow banning her on multiple social media sites he has no control over. It screams of paranoid delusions.
Since when can 4-year-olds not form memories? This is neither congruent with medical literature nor experience.
If anything has become clear after all this is that humanity is not ready for being the guardian of superintelligence. These are supposed to be the top masterminds behind one of the most influential technologies of our lifetime, and perhaps history, and yet they're all behaving like petty children, with egos and personal interests pulling in all directions, and everyone doing their best to secure their piece of the p…
