I think its mostly popcorn at this point. The general opinion as I've noticed is that OpenAI is severely failing at living up to what it promised. Nobody particularly gives a shit about the board or Altman except some folks that seem fixated about the honestly unhinged postings of his sister.

Any links to the sister's posts?

Someone will come along with them and call me names for dismissing them, but I don't really want to get into it.

[–] Railcar8095@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

That's fair. I'll search a bit. Thanks!

I didn’t even know anything was going on with his sister, either. The plot thickens.

She's accused him of sexual assault. Several years ago apparently. He has generally ignored it or said she's off her meds.

Really? Why do people think that? All this news made me try it out yesterday and it completely blew my mind.

It's degraded from what it was, and even that model had reached a ceiling as to what it could do.
