Depends if they’re more researchers or a business imo. Scientists generally speaking are very cautious about making shit claims bc if they get called out that’s their career really.

It's literally a marketing blog posted by OpenAI on their site, not a study in a journal.

OpenAI hasn't been focused on the science since the Microsoft investment. A science focused company doesn't release a technical report that doesn't contain any of the specs of the model they're reporting on.

Few decades ago probably, nowadays "scientists" make a lot of bs claims to get published. I was in the room when a "scientist" publishing several nature per year asked to her student to write a paper for a research without any result in a way that it looked like it had something important for a relatively good IF publication.

That day I decided I was done with academia. I had seen enough.
