Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Relevant info is in the first paragraph. Probably more info in the linked article by the group that actually got the leaked docs.

According to leaked documents obtained by The Information, the two companies [Microsoft and OpenAI] came to agree in 2023 that AGI will be achieved once OpenAI has developed an AI system that can generate at least $100 billion in profits.

AGI will be achieved once OpenAI has developed an AI system that can generate at least $100 billion in profits

I mean, at least it's not some stupid vaguery that armchair dullards will argue in circles forever about word meanings and minor technicalities that have nothing to do with AI and everything to do with their own malformed views of reality and humans behavior.

[Elon Musk] has also complained in court that OpenAI pays exorbitant salaries in a way that is intended to thwart rivals and therefore anti-competitive.

Yeah, what's with this new fangled idea of retaining employees with enviable conditions? Very bad for the economy.

obligatory /s I guess but I mean come on

Damn. I thought I was cynical, but nowhere near as cynical as OpenAI is, apparently.

Wait, does "generate profit" include selling products that don't actually exist yet? Like, has the "AI" generated profit if Sam Altman's unrealistic promises pull in more investments, even if none of the promises are ever delivered?

Is this the leaked script for Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money?
