I have been making the moral warning, over and over, again and again. Is Any Decision-Maker Listening?
From Kevin Roose, reporting from San Francisco, June 4, 2024, in “OpenAI Insiders Warn of a ‘Reckless’ Race for Dominance,” The Washington Post.
The members [nine current and former OpenAI employees] say OpenAI, which started as a nonprofit research lab and burst into public view with the 2022 release of ChatGPT, is putting a priority on profits and growth as it tries to build artificial general intelligence, or A.G.I., the industry term for a computer program capable of doing anything a human can.
They also claim that OpenAI has used hardball tactics to prevent workers from voicing their concerns about the technology, including restrictive nondisparagement agreements that departing employees were asked to sign.

The group published an open letter on Tuesday calling for leading A.I. companies, including OpenAI, to establish greater transparency and more protections for whistle-blowers.
