Given the rumors he was fired based on undisclosed usage of some foreign data scraping company's data, it ain't looking good.

Now that there's big money involved, screw ethics. We don't care how the training data was acquired.

    I dont care about ethics here, if the money would be excluded as well.

    IF they would live up to their goals they settled for its fine.

    But its similar to google, back in the days, with "dont be evil".

    I've tried to find it but I can't seem to find it. There's been a thread on Lemmy somewhere about it that linked to a thread on Blind where someone claiming to be working at OpenAI having heard that from the board.

    But, it's ultimately just rumors, we don't know for sure. But it was at least pretty plausible and what I would expect the board of a very successful AI company to fire the CEO for, since the company is obviously doing really well right now.
