    In a letter sent to Bonta's office this week, Meta says that OpenAI “should not be allowed to flout the law by taking and reappropriating assets it built as a charity and using them for potentially enormous private gains.”  —  www.theverge.com/2024/12/13/ 2...

    Meta has sent a letter to the California AG urging him to block OpenAI's converstion to a for-profit. Put another way, Zuck is siding with Musk against Altman. Another great scoop from the @wsj AI team. https://www.wsj.com/... [image]

    OpenAI's non-non-non-profit structure is weird to be clear but funny to see meta ask the AG for help first google goes to the FTC to complain about msft, now meta complaining about OAI everyone fighting tooth and nail for an edge

    A little over a year ago, two of the biggest names in AI, Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, were challenging each other to fight. Now they are teaming up in a bigger fight in the AI Wars. Both are Team Open Source AI.

    OpenAI: Welcome to 12 days of Shipmas!  Check out this new tool called “a project” and use our video generator to animate a cat with six legs!  —  Also OpenAI: We have the emails openai.com/index/elon-m...

    if you want an actual belly laugh (might need it today) this line from Musk's email did it for me  —  “Frankly, what surprises me is that the AI community is taking this long to figure out concepts.  It doesn't sound super hard” [embedded post]

    I mean, in the new administration, he still might get the chance [embedded post]

    it's interesting how mr “free speech and free market” *immediately* petulantly resorts to lawfare and re-writing history once he doesn't get his way lmao @elonmusk fell off, ratio, etc.
  • @garymarcus Gary Marcus on x
    OpenAI just disclosed that they felt that a “for-profit was the next step” at least since 2017, but continued to publicly present itself until this years as a nonprofit committed to humanity. [image]

    Shipmas came early!
  • @kelseytuoc Kelsey Piper on x
    I'm watching the OpenAI for-profit conversions closely and I'm not at all persuaded that they're going to arrive at a fair price for buying out the nonprofit (a true fair price would be really really high!), but it really does look like Elon's complaints are bad faith.

    my latest: OpenAI is hitting back at Elon Musk's latest allegations by releasing a slew of old internal messages, saying the billionaire backed the AI startup becoming a for-profit before calling that shift “illegal”. https://www.bloomberg.com/... via @technology

    today's 12-days of OpenAI is a burn on Elon?
  • @jacquesthibs Jacques on x
    True! Yet, as far as I can tell, he still deserves compensation. More importantly, the non-profit deserves tens of billions in compensation for IP if OpenAI decides to go full for-profit.
