They fired the ceo and everyone went with him to microsoft. Microsoft's in control of all the compute resources to be delivered to openai, has access to all their tech and got the means to divert compute resources to this new "openai2.0" team that is now under full control of microsoft

Microsoft no longer needs the current "openai", it's gotta be 1 of the most stupid shit the board could've done

If this was a play by MS, I'm impressed. Reddit thinks tech bro Altman is some kind of hero and forgot all of his sketchy past projects and unfounded scifi hype. Its mind boggling. I think neither Altman nor the EA weirdos on the board have gotten enough scrutiny in the media, and certainly not on reddit.

By EA, are you talking about the video game company?
