Frankly, OpenAI seems to be losing its luster, and fast.

Plugins were a failure. GPTs are a little better, but I still don't see the product market fit. GPT-4 is still king, but not by that much any more. It's not even clear that they're doing great research, because they don't publish.

GPT-5 has to be incredibly good at this point, and I'm not sure that it will be.

I know things keep moving faster and faster, especially in this space, but GPT-4 is less than a year old. Claiming they are losing their luster, because they aren’t shaking the earth with new models every quarter, seems a little ridiculous.

As the popularity has exploded, and ethical questions have become increasingly relevant, it is probably worth taking some time to nail certain aspects down before releasing everything to the public for the sake of being first.

It sure is, but the theme in the sub-thread was about if OAI in particular can afford to do that (i.e. wait) while there are literally dozens of other companies and open-source projects showing they can solve a lot of the tasks GPT-4 does, for free, so that the OAI value proposition seems weaker and weaker by the month.

Add to that a company environment that seems to be built on money-crazed stock option piling engineers and a CEO that seems to have gotten power-crazed.. I mean they grew far too fast I guess..
