Sam Altman is back as OpenAI CEO with a new board. And of course the new board was hand picked to no longer restrict Altman so he can run OpenAI as a business as he sees fit (until he jumps to one of his own things he's been preparing for months now).The interesting aspect of this: The new board no longer has any women, the only woman on the old board was replaced by Larry Summers who's known to think that women just have less "intrinsic aptitude" for "science and engineering". So Yeah. Says a lot about what OpenAI considers important.

@tante Wenn ChatGPT ein Mensch wäre, würde ChatGPT in vorauseilendem Gehorsam männlichere Antworten geben. Glücklicherweise ist ChatGPT ein LLM und hat keine Vorurteile und keinen Bias.

@tante 99% sure the whole point of all that was to basically convert it into a standard company with too much money with a ruler CEO who can go nuts turning it into a profit model for himself. There isn't a lot of detail, but it sounds like the old board actually fired him for good reasons then was basically railroaded into taking him back at all costs by outside forces.

@tante Holy f*ck.I expected that the money would carry the day, and I sort of expected a coup would result from this because disaster capitalism, but this is even worse than I expected overall.

@tante Are you surprised? The #genderBias of #OpenAi training #LLM is well known: https://www.mdpi.com/2076-0760/12/8/435 or this pdf: https://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/2305/2305.10510.pdf or here: https://www.aisnakeoil.com/p/quantifying-chatgpts-gender-bias

re LB: wait, what? the entire board was dismissed and replaced with Summers toadies, to reinstate as CEO someone who literally two days ago was accepting a job with a competitor... and that is somehow perfectly legal?America, your corporate governance laws don't look well; maybe you should call them an ambulance

@tanteI would assume that along with the lack of women, there is a lack of people of color. We know LLMs have a tendency to be sexist and racist. Fucking disgusting.

@tante I don't care about this scam in general. After all, such corpo scams are plenty.What I still find how media falls for this so frequently.OpenAI and Microsoft AI play thing will be memory of the past in one year. Everyone knows it, but it gives this pocket to unload MS shares to unsuspecting pension fonds and etc.

@tante it's called bias. 🤔 Bad training data leads to "learning" wrong things.It's simply random FakeNews and AI is perfect in generating Bullshit.On the other hand it's really good news.So evolution of AI's recursion will lead to it's extinction. 🤷

@tante It is pretty unsettling to think AI development and all the good it could indeed produce is in the hands of a bunch of moody, juvenile, cultish techno utopian libertarian bros that post emojis on X to communicate, chant "feel the AGI", believe they are creating "God" and naively think that if they actually achieve it, such an entity would serve their commercial interests. 😬

@tante And then there's the uncomfortable fact that this is all hype, not going to result in AGI, and there is no more free capital coming from the fed, so it's all just a bunch of people fighting over the right be friends with a guy whose own sister is telling everyone very clearly who he is.Capitalists have evolved based on an endless supply of raw dough, and what comes next is going to be like Atlas Attempts To Shrug But Falls Through The Looking Glass instead.

@tante The board smells of balls, that's true. And then, regardless of its gender handicap, I think this board change is actually far worse than you describe. Summers is not just any idiot, he's one particular kind of male individual, one I wouldn't trust for anything that has the social impact of anything more complex than running a hotdog cart, let alone an advanced computing company.https://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Larry_SummersLeft: A real TIME magazine cover. Right: A more honest version of the same.
