Ilya signed it??? He's on the board... This whole thing is such an implosion of ambition.
he even posted a apology: https://x.com/ilyasut/status/1726590052392956028?s=20 what the actual fuck =O
Well, great to see that the potentially dangerous future of AGI is in good hands.
I'm cancelling my Netflix subscription, I don't need it.
This is some Succession-level shenanigans going on here.
Jesse Eisenberg to play Altman this time around?
And now we see who has the real power here. Let this be a lesson to both private and non-profit companies. Boards, investors, executives... the structure of your entity doesn't matter if you wake any of the dragons: 1. Employees 2. Customers 3. Government
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Ilya is much less active on Twitter than the others. The rumors that blamed him emerged and spread like wildfire and he did nothing to stop it because he probably only checks Twitter once a week.
One would think that he would be on Twitter this week.
At this point, I think it’s absolutely clear no one has any idea what happened. Every speculation, no matter how sophisticated, has been wrong. It’s time to take a breath, step back, and wait until someone from OpenAI says something substantial.
Absolutely agreed This is the point where I've realized I just have to wait until history is written, rather than trying to follow this in real time. The situation is too convoluted, and too many people are playing the media to try to advance their version of the narrative. When there is enough distance from the situation for a proper historical retrospective to be written, I look forward to getting a better view of…
Studying revolutions is revealing - they are rarely the invevitable product of historical forces, executed to the plans of strategic minded players... instead they are often accidental and inexplicable. Those credited as their masterminds were trying to stop them. Rather than inevitible, there was often progress in the opposite direction making people feel the liklihood was decreasing. The confusing paradoxical mess of great events doesn't make for a good story to tell others though.
If they join Sam Altman and Greg Brockman at Microsoft they will not need to start from scratch because Microsoft has full rights [1] to ChatGPT IP. They can just fork ChatGPT. Also keep in mind that Microsoft hasn't actually given OpenAI $13 Billion because much of that is in the form of Azure credits. So this could end up being the cheapest acquisition for Microsoft: They get a $90 Billion company for peanuts. [1]…
Why does Microsoft have full rights to ChatGPT IP? Where did you get that from? Source?
Likewise, these workers that threatened to quit OpenAI out of loyalty to Altman now need to follow thru sooner rather than later, so their actions are clearly viewed in the context of Altman’s firing.
In the mean time, how can the public resume work on API integrations without knowing when the MS versions will come online or if they will be binary interoperable with the OpenAPI servers that could seemingly go down at any moment?
