I really don't understand how this is possible when Microsoft has invested billions into OpenAI
All it takes is a couple of dudes to buy a couple of yachts, private planes maybe another home or two. And poof. Its gone.
Burning through billions of investors money isnt the same as being profitable. The Silicon Valley gravy train is over, and investors are actually demanding to start seeing returns on their investments.
It isn't. The article is obviously wrong.
And you are the only voice of reason in this thread.
"Make up shit that makes OpenAI look bad" is like tech article gold right now. The amount of times i am seeing "look what ChatGPT said!!!" As if prompter intention is completely irrelevant to model output.
Objectivity doesn't exist anymore. It's just really popular to talk shit about ai right now.
Like when Altman effectively said "we should only regulate models as big or bigger than ours, we should not regulate small independent or open source models and businesses" to Congress, which was followed by endless articles saying "Sam Altman wants to regulate open source and stamp out smaller competition!"
I have no love for how unopen they've become, but at least align criticisms with reality please.
