The fact that Silicon Valley interests effortlessly shrugged off the non-profit board's attempt to hit the kill switch last year, and now are preparing to take the company commercial despite the deliberate design otherwise, becomes much more interesting when you consider the theory that corporations are a form of artificial superintelligence.
If the AI idealists can't stand up to basic forces of capitalism, how do they expect to control an actually dangerous AGI?
You give them far too much credit to assume this specific company will ever achieve anything even close to AGI.
We don't know what they aren't showing us. GPT was only one strand of research
If they had something better, don't you think they'd be putting it out front and center? This is akin to all those conspiracy theorists claiming they have proof to back their claims but they just can't show it to you right now but it's definitely coming at some indeterminate time in the future.
