Three years after ChatGPT made OpenAI the leader in artificial intelligence and a household name, rivals have closed the gap and some investors are wondering if the sensation has the wherewithal to stay dominant. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/12/16/tech/open-ai-future/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #tech #openai #microsoft #google #samaltman #chatgpt #ai #computers #tech #chipmakers

📰 It's ironic when somebody starts selling the solution to a problem they were a major part of creating:

in a world roiled by AI-generated digital fakery, it hopes to create digital “proof of human” tools that can help separate the humans from the bots."¹

A quite reasonable policy that concretely means "don't use #LLM".

My only objection is to this sentence:

Since AI tools cannot take responsibility

Sure, it would be dumb to attribute responsibility to a software.

BUT it's totally reasonable to held accountable for its output those who run it and sell its output as a service.

Whatever #OpenAI's websites display to users, it is Open AI's choice to display it, so it's their own responsibility, be it output of a LLM or #SamAltman own writing.

We can and should held these companies legally accountable. Talking of #AI (obviouslack of) responsibility is misleading and only serves the interests of these companies.

So a better wording would heve been

Since AI companies pretend to be above the Law and don't want to be held accountable for anything...

"We’re in uncharted territory. Nobody knows if this scales to AGI or hits a wall at GPT-5.”

#SamAltman, CEO of #OpenAI, 2025

https://substack.com/inbox/post/179453867

Oh no we know. It's neither. It hit the wall with ChatGPT3 and has been spinning its wheels ever since.

You've got to grudgingly admire the cojones on this grifter though, still trying to sell his house of cards as a luxury home even as it starts to collapse before our eyes.

Altmans Reaktion auf OpenAIs Milliardenverlust: "Es reicht"

Er kenne genug Menschen, die an Anteilen von OpenAI interessiert seien – kontert Sam Altman auf die Frage nach herben Verlusten.

Le propos de Sadin est assez brouillon, notamment sur le #technofascisme, mais il pointe du doigt l'énorme faille des raisonnements politiques et médiatiques sur les #IA et le #numérique en général, à savoir l'admiration béate vis-à-vis d'hommes d'affaires certes très habiles, mais dont la réflexion philosophique et politique ne dépasse pas la surface d'une calculette. Je ne sais pas si je vais lire son livre, par contre, parce qu'il ne vole pas très haut non plus.

Contrairement à ce que semble penser #Sadin, le #fascisme n'a pas disparu en 1945. Il a continué de prospérer grâce aux multiples alliances entre #autoritarisme et#capitalisme. Et le #totalitarisme reste un horizon vers lequel penche une partie importante du monde industriel, notamment du sein de la #SiliconValley. Les #ElonMusk, #JeffBezos, #SamAltman, #KurtisYarvin, ne sont pas des figures marginales. Parler de #technofascisme en référence à leur idéologie est totalement justifié.
