> Once AGI is declared by OpenAI, that declaration will now be verified by an independent expert panel.

So OpenAI will declare AGI as soon as ChatGPT is a better AI lawyer than any Microsoft could hire.

Why do none of OpenAI announcements have an author attributed to them? Are people that ashamed of working there, they don't even want to attach their name to the work? I guess I would be, too.

because they're corporate PR statements drafted by a team, and corporate press releases don't normally have an author byline

Eh, not really. There’s usually a “voice” behind it.

In general I feel like OAI is clown town to work at these days, so they probably don’t want anyone except leadership to take the heat for ~anything

In short: Microsoft changed our business so that we can be for-profit, and asserted its rights over IP so that the whole OpenAI rebellion thing that happened earlier can't happen again.

So they specifically did compromise the public mission of generating ai for the common good and now common good is defined as “$100b in profits” what a sham and scam “open”AI company

> Microsoft can now independently pursue AGI alone or in partnership with third parties.

The question is does this reflect an increase or decrease in confidence at OpenAI wrt them achieving AGI?

What happens if someone else achieves AGI first? The way they wrote it, seems like they are damn sure they are the ones who will achieve AGI. A bit too egoistic...?

Kind of interesting given they're essentially building their own foundation models vis-à-vis microsoft.ai. Run by a Google Deepmind founder.

> Microsoft’s IP rights now exclude OpenAI’s consumer hardware.

While not unexpected, this is exciting and intriguing.

And of course, looking forward to Microsoft's Zune AI.
