A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

We had a thread about OpenAI Staff Threaten to Quit Unless Board Resigns, but I thought I might as well add it again. Especially because of this part:

Remarkably, the letter’s signees include Ilya Sutskever, the company’s chief scientist and a member of its board, who has been blamed for coordinating the boardroom coup against Altman in the first place.

Okay then. I think we are in a simulation, someone quick saved, and is now experimenting what the outcomes of random decisions are.

A minor piece of information was that OpenAI Approached Anthropic About Merger, and The Atlkantic has a slightly longer look and speculation what’s going on Inside the Chaos at OpenAI.

With Ilya’s recent turn around, there’s apparently also the option of Altman coming back Sam Altman is still trying to return as OpenAI CEO, something even MS would apparently be okay with, at least publically.

Business Analysis blog Stratechery posted some analysis on OpenAI’s Misalignment and Microsoft’s Gain.

Loving it, this is like SubredditDrama, but without having any actual chance of affecting me (I don’t believe in AGI coming out of LLMs), and on a global scale.

we are in a simulation

Recalling my cosmologic knowledge about the multiverse theory I can say to you that this is possible.

Rather unlikely, as the multiverse theory is a...theory.

Well at cosmological scale we do not have anything better....
