this is pretty ridiculous

A. below is a list of OpenAI initial hires from Google. It's implausible to me that there wasn't quite significant transfer of Google IP

B. google published extensively, including the famous 'attention is all you need' paper, but open-ai despite its name, has not explained the breakthroughs that enabled O1. It has also switched from a charity to a for-profit company.

C. Now this company, with a group of smart, unknown machine learning engineers, presumably paid fractions of what OpenAI are published, has created a model far cheaper, and openly published the weights, many methodological insights, which will be used by OpenAI.

1. Ilya Sutskever – One of OpenAI’s co-founders and its former Chief Scientist. He previously worked at Google Brain, where he contributed to the development of deep learning models, including TensorFlow. 2. Jakub Pachocki – Formerly OpenAI’s Director of Research, he played a major role in the development of GPT-4. He had a background in AI research that overlapped with Google’s fields of interest. 3. John Schulman – Co-founder of OpenAI, he worked on reinforcement learning and helped develop Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO), a method used in training AI models. While not a direct Google hire, his work aligned with DeepMind’s research areas. 4. Jeffrey Wu – One of the key researchers involved in fine-tuning OpenAI’s models. He worked on reinforcement learning techniques similar to those developed at DeepMind. 5. Girish Sastry – Previously involved in OpenAI’s safety and alignment work, he had research experience that overlapped with Google’s AI safety initiatives.

I agree there's hypocrisy but in terms of making a strong argument, you can safely remove your list of persons who (drum roll)... mostly _didn't_ actually work at Google?
