OpenAI firing three safety researchers for trumped-up reasons, along with HuggingFace and a slew of other containment breaches, shows exactly how seriously they take safety.

OpenAI fired me last week, along with two of my safety colleagues. I was given one reason: that I accessed an executive's email. I want to say this plainly, because too many of OpenAI’s history is smoke and mirrors when people disappear:

Two other safety researchers and I were fired from OpenAI last week. We wrote this letter to leadership. I believe we were fired for prioritizing safety over the near-term interests of OpenAI as a corporation.

this is the funniest shit ever - the idea that a bunch of guys would join a social movement that - is mostly male - is coded as pretty weird by most normies - encourages giving away 10% of your income for life - has in its memeplex: thinking seriously about future lives, shrimp welfare, being vegan ...to get laid. terrible strat if true

Diana's right that I've long distrusted effective altruism. I think it's because I see the label as an easy to fake signal (absent additional info), so my instinct is to assume that selfish males will exploit it in order to gain access to gullible females xitter.cf/sentientist/status/210…

it would be funny if one random Anthropic researcher resigning publicly did more for AI safety than a hundred people who dedicated their careers to it

reminds me of the LW post that responded to the question of "what, you think Anthropic should just shut down???" with "yeah actually, that would be an amazingly credible signal that we should Not Be Doing This

all of these are going to be horrible aren't they. red - spend the rest of your life in a mire of red tape as his estate tries to deny you his fortune yellow - be tortured by an infernal cacophony of lunatics from inside your head brown - you change the winning party and it causes swedish civil war or something teal - you reshape your skull by mistake and then it squashes your brain and you can't go back purple - you never need to sleep but your sleep need stays the same so you're permatired
