Fuck Meta. Fuck OpenAI.
And, I'd like to add, fuck Musk.
Fuck Musk, from Chanel
Isn’t it enough that we have Fight Fight Fight?!?
But maybe they can fuck each other a bit?
"Let them ~~fight~~ fuck"
Love it when I can upvote an entire comment chain.
Probably the only time this year I'll agree with Zuckerborg.
He’s sucking upto Musk lol
OpenAI was a nonprofit?!?
It's a bit more complicated than that.
I think there's a for-profit part of the business and a non-profit part.
The non-profit part used to own the for profit with a majority stake afaik
let them fight
Why doesn't Meta want Open AI to be a for-profit company?
And are there any examples of a company that started as a non-profit becoming for-profit?
for profit would imply they can grow even faster due to having funds to expand its service. You would be against it if you plan on having your own competing AI service(which meta clearly does)
Meta has also released many top tier model to the open source community. To say "meta only oppose openai cuz they wanna create a service of their own" is quite frankely uninformed.
Meta is the reason so many researchers are able to work and make AI accessible to the everyday people. Without llama models, so much of research would not have been possible cuz openai never release their stuff under the guise of "safety".
Openai wants to monopolize and charge us whatever they want. And this going for-profit was part of their plan from the beginning. If only meta had not released their top tier models for absolutely free, openai would have had complete monopoly.
Also saying for profit structure would allow them to have more fund is like saying having a gun will allow a robber to have more funds.
The funds will come from consumers, for profit would mean they will have an easier time ripping off the people without too much scrutiny
none of this doesn't refute anything ive said. the whole point to prevent open ai from getting profit is to prevent it from getting big to the point that the rest are worthless. anyone who has a foot in AI would not want open ai to go for profit, as that on its own is a limiter to how fast it can grow. Strictly speaking, any non-profit organization has a significantly harder time to expand than ones that are for profit.
Why do you compare OpenAI to a thief?
I'm asking out of curiosity
where does the ai training material come from?
the internet
yes, but did openai ask permission to use it? who owns it?
This is short term view. In the longterm being for profit is a major detriment
It seems like besides Linux itself, most successful open source projects go for profit. When users don't like the changes, they fork and keep going.
Like MySQL going for profit with a sell out to Oracle and MariaDB becoming the most popular fork of MySQL.
Not true, many big open source projects stay open.
A good example… PyTorch. Which Meta funds.
They're all racing to build super intelligent AI. The first one to get there could essentially become God. So zelon and mark are desperately trying to buy time.
oh yeah, the "free" market
