If that is the case, why hasn't Google caught up yet?

my guess is that a significantly underrated reason is that Google holds itself to stricter data compliance standards than OAI

That is openly laughable. Incognito mode claims, just one of a long list of examples of this politicized monopoly engaging in criminal behavior.

Personally I don’t trust much of anything sam says, so I’d take any framing with a large grain of salt

> a large grain of salt You mean a lump of salt? I've always wondered what the right word is to describe this amount of salt /!jk

I've been offered a "lump" of sugar before, and it was not a single sugar crystal. When I hear "large grain of salt" I imagine something like this https://crystalverse.com/sodium-chloride-crystals/, quite different than a lump.

He used “easily one of the greatest minds of our generation” for two different people in the same message. 100% ai generated

AI or GPT usually doesn't repeat like that. Although it usually is easy to tell if something is GPT.

They probably avoid making it look like their writing is written with chatgpt.

Depends on how tight his non-compete is.

I think those are illegal now. They have been in California for a long time. https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/news/press-releases/2024/04/...

Could still cover him, no idea though.

Via the FTC link:

"Existing noncompetes for senior executives - who represent less than 0.75% of workers - can remain in force under the FTC’s final rule, but employers are banned from entering into or attempting to enforce any new noncompetes, even if they involve senior executives. Employers will be required to provide notice to workers other than senior executives who are bound by an existing noncompete that they will not be enforcing any noncompetes against them."

Mira Murati also "missed the king" and just delivered the keynote

[flagged]

I’ve heard this sentiment from others but don’t know much about it. Can you say more? Is it because of her background (product management)? If she doesn’t have any skills why do you think Sam Altman keeps her around - if she a Sam supporter?

More like they iced him for the last 6 months to ensure he wasn’t taking their lead to a competitor. He probably hasn’t touched anything in that time.

Sitting on the roof?

remember that from the Silicon Valley (HBO) episode. :)
