Incredibly stupid

The wink wink at creating an AI girlfriend is so bizarre

I guess we know who their target user base is

Worse than that, good luck positioning yourself as a paragon of "AI safety" when you can't even handle basic human business relationships honestly.

Seriously. This is utterly baffling to me.

OpenAI is trying to demonstrate how it's so trustworthy, and is always talking about how important it is to be trustworthy when it comes to something as important and potentially dangerous as AI.

And then they do something like this...??

I literally don't understand how they could be this dumb. Do they not have a lawyer? Or do they not tell their corporate counsel what they're up to? Or just ignore the counsel when they do?

>>crazyg+v4
Also retired the entire safety team in the same weak too, lol.

>>tallda+71
Absolutely. Good for Scarlett, and my gosh Sam and that org need to learn a few lessons. What were they thinking?? So gross.

>>steveB+(OP)
tell me. who target user base is?

>>option+N9
Lonely losers who think computers are magic.

>>steveB+R4
I wonder howe much their anti disparagement clauses are about covering up how this went down internally?

>>imperi+s7
Will be funny if Sam was the bad guy all along

>>crazyg+v4
Especially considering that the advantage gained by having an AI sound like this one individual is absolutely minimal. It's not as though any significant portion of a target market is going to throw a tantrum, saying "No, no, I refuse to accept this simulated companionship unless it sounds exactly like the voice in that one particular movie several years ago." Baffling that the company didn't recognise the risk here and retire that voice as soon as they were turned down the first time.

>>steveB+Gb
Uh, we all should know exactly who and what Sam Altman is by now.

He’s absolutely been the bad guy all along.

I can't believe this demo hasn't been deleted yet:

Giggly, flirty AI voice demos were already weird, but now it's even creepier knowing the backstory of how they try to get their voices.

This demo and the one I linked just seem so open about the AI GF use case its bizarre.

If you actually wanted a voice assistant AI, having a giggly, chatty computer acting like it has a huge crush on you is not remotely useful in day to day real world use. Unless that's exactly what you want.
