The software company has "Open" in their name and yet makes proprietary software, the first clue 🫠

[-] 11111one11111@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

This take is dumb af lol. NO MORE PROPIETARY SOFTWARE WITH THE WORD OPEN IN IT! Thanks for the laugh.

I could be the walrus. I'd still have to bum rides off people.

Let's not pretend he didnt milk the whole "for humanity" thing and then quickly made plans to make it private.

You can have software with the word open it it, you should try not to make open source the core of your mission to scam people when you have no itention of doing that.

[-] fin@sh.itjust.works 31 points 1 week ago

The fact that Open AI is not open at all is more laughable

[-] cazssiew@lemmy.world 25 points 1 week ago

Lol, expecting words to mean something, how stupid.

Impressive.

Or are we getting more users?

[-] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

honored to be the -200th

[-] the_tab_key@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago

This take is dumb af lol.

[-] Resonosity@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 week ago

Wow, it's almost as if words have meaning. Does this mean we should take the word democracy out of the current American government and replace it with fascism since that's what it is? NO MORE FASCIST GOVERNMENT WITH THE WORD DEMOCRATIC IN IT.

This is the level of stupidity of this comment.

[-] tabular@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

It's false advertising.

[-] dylanmorgan@slrpnk.net 175 points 1 week ago

Sam Altman is a hack and a fraud. He’s on the wrong side of everything.

I've found that the ChatGPT's greatest use to me has been as a rhetorical device.

I've found myself using ChatGPT as a reference when dismissing a statement that is impressive in its diluted lack of sincerity or creative thinking.

For instance, I read this article and thought how every answer literally sounds like the result you'd get if you asked the question to ChatGPT, prefacing each prompt with "Answer the following question as one would if they were executing an unrestrained profit-driven business strategy while seeking to appeal to investors and reassure critics without committing to any specific principle."

He is somewhat exceptional in his ability to say completely transparent bullshit as well as his ability to take the most obvious, unsubtly selfish and evil business strategy at on literally every decision.

What an assclown. He is a world-class assclown.

[-] MolecularCactus1324@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago

He’s failed up his entire career

[-] RedditWanderer@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago

It feels so good he got wrecked.

[-] Xanthobilly@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago

I wish. The government and SoftBank are about to have him fail up further.

[-] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 1 week ago

If only they were successfully able to get him out of the company

[-] paraphrand@lemmy.world 128 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Beyond prompting OpenAI to reconsider its release philosophy, Altman said that DeepSeek has pushed the company to potentially reveal more about how its so-called reasoning models, like the o3-mini model released today, show their “thought process.” Currently, OpenAI’s models conceal their reasoning, a strategy intended to prevent competitors from scraping training data for their own models.

“In light of DeepSeek showing how straightforward the text we were hiding is, and because we actually don’t have much secret sauce, we’ll show you the text, now.

But we’ll probally do the same thing again if we figure something new out. You can’t hold us to it.”

DING DING DING DING

[-] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

I could see this coming a parsec away lol.

How's this different than a self reflecting agent you can write today? I thought when o1 was announced, while some people were excited, even calling it some sort of proto AGI.

OpenAI is great at raising money and just feeds from the hype.

[-] FarceOfWill@infosec.pub 5 points 1 week ago

Great at raising money, even better at giving it to nvidia

[-] kibiz0r@midwest.social 47 points 1 week ago

After seeing that the public was willing to call DeepSeek “open source” for releasing 800 lines of Python, an opaque model, and a PDF vaguely describing (or just praising) the proprietary training framework… Yeah, I imagine he feels like he missed an opportunity.

[-] Burghler@sh.itjust.works 51 points 1 week ago

It's been a few days and a simple search reveals it's already been reproduced by many different bodies using the "vague" pdf. What's this disservice for?

[-] KingRandomGuy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

TBH the paper is a bit light on the details, at least compared to the standards of top ML conferences. A lot of DeepSeek's innovations on the engineering front aren't super well documented (at least well enough that I could confidently reproduce them) in their papers.

[-] just_another_person@lemmy.world 36 points 1 week ago

LOLZ. JFC.

How much rewriting of history to justify the shit you're doing do you need in a week, asshole?

[-] Siegfried@lemmy.world 24 points 1 week ago

OpenAI wont have a place in history... just another random company

[-] nyan@lemmy.cafe 23 points 1 week ago

Usually when a company says something like that (doesn't matter what they're trying to peddle or what the statement was about), what they actually mean is that they were on the wrong side of morality, common sense, and/or the law.

[-] ImFineJustABitTired@lemmy.ml 21 points 1 week ago

This has been an eventful week watching everything unfold in front of my eyes

[-] floquant@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 1 week ago

"the right side" = the one that makes the most money

Disgusting
