Now OpenAI has responded to Elon Musk’s lawsuit with an email dump containing a bunch of weird nerd startup funding drama: https://openai.com/blog/openai-elon-musk
Choice quote from OpenAI:
As we get closer to building AI, it will make sense to start being less open. The Open in openAI means that everyone should benefit from the fruits of AI after its built, but it’s totally OK to not share the science (even though sharing everything is definitely the right strategy in the short and possibly medium term for recruitment purposes).
OpenAI have learned how to redact text properly now though, a pity really.
it’s very funny that OpenAI’s being so public with this, cause there’s a bunch of embarrassing shit in there:
Ow boy.
I did laugh when I read somewhere else that Musk wanted to make openAI a part of tesla because google, the guy is just a weird megalomaniac. Just as when he was about to be taken over by apple but wanted the job of apple CEO. Reminds me of cartoon villain stuff where the villain dismisses the ideas of the underlings and then ‘comes up’ with them himself.
This makes me feel justified in sneering. Jesus christ the horror. The horror.
I wonder if they’re counting on nobody in the mainstream press paying attention or even understanding how that stuff is embarrassing and just going for the zinger.
