This is incredibly unfair to the OpenAI board. The original founders of OpenAI founded the company precisely because they wanted AI to be OPEN FOR EVERYONE. It's Altman and Microsoft who want to control it, in order to maximize the profits for their shareholders.

This is a very naive take.

Who sat before Congress and told them they needed to control AI other people developed (regulatory capture)? It wasn't the OpenAI board, was it?

Altman is one of the original founders of OpenAI, and was probably the single most influential person in its formation.

Brockman was hiring the first key employees, and Musk provided the majority of funding. Of the principal founders, there are at least 4 heavier figures than Altman.

I think we agree, as my comments were mostly in reference to Altman's (and other's) regulatory (capture) world tours, though I see how they could be misinterpreted.

I strongly disagree with that. If that was their motivation, then why is it not open-sourced? Why is it hardcoded with prudish limitations? That is the direct opposite of open and free (as in freedom) to me.
