| He is a hypocrite for all we care. You work there for a while when your stock is getting vested and suddenly you have this feeling? Like the dude hired a PR firm as well. While the safety and alignment is a real problem, I don’t get this guy or the Anthropic dude. First world problems. |

| Here's a little cheat sheet for discrediting anyone who warns about AI: * If they worked at an AI firm, say "they're a hypocrite" * If they didn't work at an AI firm, say "they have no idea what they're talking about" |

Recall that when Daniel Kokotajlo resigned, he believed he was giving up his equity under the terms of the agreement he had signed. That’s what it was worth to him to avoid signing a non-disparagement agreement. Does that count for anything? | | |

| ▲ | taurath an hour ago | parent | prev [-] | | Maybe more an indication of the amount of trust openAI and AI researchers generally have (not) earned. When one (through a hired PR agency and Time magazine article) parrots the position pushed by Sam who has been so untrustworthy the board tried to remove him, it’s worth not taking things at face value and applying a critical lens. |

| Hey now, he probably donated a good chunk to charity (donor advised fund where he retains complete control, after a 60% tax deduction) |
