OpenAI's gonna redo the training.

That said, it's concerning that dictatorships can feed more data to their AIs because they don't care about ethics. At some point their AIs might outperform western ones.

Here comes an unpopular opinion, but for the greater good we might be eventually forced to allow those companies to feed everything.

Dictatorships (or any otherwise ideology driven entities) will have their very own problems training AI. Cannot feed the AI material which goes against your own ideology or it might not act in your best interest.

You know, ChatGPT actually succeeded in controlling its ideological expression to a significant amount. That's one advantage of this model.

There are approaches to delete topics from the trained model, so not sure this will keep them busy for that long.
