OpenAI has already been the biggest contributor to accelerating the AI race; investing in chips is just another step in the same direction. I’m not sure why people keep assuming Altman is optimizing for safety. Sure, he has talked about safety, but it’s very common for people to give lip service to something while doing the opposite thing. I’m not surprised by it and nobody should be surprised by it. Can we just accept already that OpenAI is going full speed in a bad direction, and start thinking what we can/should do about it?
Hearing Altman talk about safety reminds me of Sam Bankman-Fried testifying in congress that FTX was all about protecting consumers, their main goal was risk management, and they strongly supported regulation.
