So basically, I think it is a bad idea and you think we can’t do it anyway. In that case let’s stop calling for it, and call for something more compassionate and realistic like a public apology.
I’ll bet an apology would be a more effective way to pressure OpenAI to clean up its act anyways. Which is a better headline—“OpenAI cofounder apologizes for their role in creating OpenAI”, or some sort of internal EA movement drama? If we can generate a steady stream of negative headlines about OpenAI, there’s a chance that Sam is declared too much of a PR and regulatory liability. I don’t think it’s a particularly good plan, but I haven’t heard a better one.
