OpenAI's new safety team... Is only focused on keeping endless growth safe.

They always find pictures where he just.looks.like a criminal and it's amazing every time.

Wait, Alty's back?

I'm just curious, how did you miss that? 😅 It was the biggest story in tech like 6 months ago

I knew they kicked him and something about Microsoft, but I lost track there ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

^Edit: typo^

It was like the next morning they had hired him back and started pretending it never happened. I think MS threatened to shut them down and take what they’d paid for.

After the employees sent around a letter talking about their market position as what was, in theory, a nonprofit, and Lemmy licked that bullshit up with a fervor.
