  Greg Brockman just confirmed what I speculated in December 2023! Sam Altman was not fully candid in his testimony to the US Senate.

  Greg Brockman is one of the hardest working people I've ever met. I'm a night owl and would see his Slack status stay green well into the night. The single biggest tell for someone being completely ignorant of the AI scene is to not know what kind of engineering GOAT Greg is.

  @techreview In October 2015, when Greg Brockman was soliciting donations to found OpenAI as a nonprofit, he sent an email to Marissa Mayer, who was the CEO of Yahoo at the time, asking for a donation. He told her that he himself was donating $100,000 to OpenAI, and made the same …

  Wow. Greg Brockman had a 10M side deal with Altman even in the early nonprofit days, which not disclosed to Elon or (I believe) in nonprofit filings to the company.

  Musk's lawyer is calmly eviscerating OpenAI's President Greg Brockman, largely using Brockman's own diaries and emails. For the first time I think Elon has a real chance of winning.

  takeaway from Greg Brockman testimony at Elon vs. OpenAI trial today is that no grown man should have a diary

  Greg Brockman and Sam Altman stole a charity.

  Americans: Investors suck. They don't do work and just extract gains. Also Americans: You mean he paid for that equity in blood, sweat, and tears instead of dollars? That sounds totally unfair.

  In Court today, Greg Brockman admitted on the stand that despite investing ZERO into OpenAI his stake is worth nearly $30 BILLION. Imagine if the President of St. Jude's was suddenly worth $30 billion.

  The case against OpenAI is getting markedly stronger now that Musk is off the stand.  Why?  Musk's lawyer is interrogating OpenAI founder Greg Brockman, making clear that OpenAI sold its mission as a nonprofit for public benefit, and not just to Elon but to many big figures in Si…

  Stuart Russell, a computer scientist at UC Berkeley, takes the stand to testify, direct-examine by Elon Musk's lawyer Steven Molo. He says that the current AI race has a “winner take all” dynamic, in which “whichever company develops AGI first (AI that matches or exceeds human

  Musk cares soooooo much about “humanity” or AI THAT he was willing to settle and forget about “humanity” well being 🤪 [image]

• @gerritd Gerrit De Vynck on x

  Musk hired the longtime AI safety researcher and futurist Stuart Russell as an expert witness for the lawsuit against Altman and OpenAI. Russell says his rate is $5,000 an hour and that he spent more than 40 hours preparing for the case. That's $200,000

  Elon: Let's settle. Greg: Nope. Elon: Ok, let's talk about your diaries, then.

• @zeffmax Max Zeff on x

  The judge in this case denied submitting this text as evidence to the jury. She says the plaintiffs should have submitted it during Elon's testimony, where he could have responded. The public has seen it already tho, so, mission accomplished for OAI on the comms battle.

• @jimstewartson @jimstewartson on x

  This threat about “the most hated men in America” is not about the trial; it's about Musk's ability to abuse this website to pay mouthpieces to shill for him. It's about Katie Miller being his public defense attorney, etc. Musk's whole game is psychological influence operations.

  Brockman is pretty animated and addressing the jury in a more personable way. regaling folks with old stories of working on self driving cars he also did a funny elon impression (but not a cutting one, to be clear)
