OpenAI Fires 3 Employees Who Shared AI Security Information - OpenAI is DEAD

Eli the Computer Guy (0:00)

So coming from Engadget, OpenAI fires three employees who allegedly shared info with an external AI safety group. You can't make this stuff up. So I think this is gonna be interesting when we see the disaster of OpenAI. So OpenAI, I think it's pretty reasonable, in my opinion, it is reasonable to say that OpenAI is a criminal organization, right? Basically, Sam Altman seems to be the head of this criminal enterprise, and it does seem about time that the Justice Department needs to drag him into a grand jury by his ball sack to determine if there is yet enough evidence to actually drag his ass to court to determine how many decades he should rot behind bars, right? I think that's all becoming rather more obvious by the day. The thing is for OpenAI and Sam Altman, right? Sam Altman is not used to consequences, as I've been talking about for a long time, right? We talk about the accusations his sister has lodged against him. And then you look at his history, and it does seem to go from A to B to C to D. It seems to be a pretty straight line of victimizing people, blaming them for the victimization, and then pretending that he's really the good guy. And you can kind of see that line. Again, at least from my point of view. And so what's kind of interesting here, right, is he's getting pushed into a corner because it's becoming ever more obvious. What a fucking disaster, OpenAI. Like, oh, it is just, it's just bad. It is just bad. And so the issue is, the issue for a manipulator, an issue for somebody that exhibits the behavior traits that it appears that Sam Altman exhibits, is the issue is, is how is he going to get himself out of this? How is he going to get himself out of the problems that he's created? And so one of the things we've seen, I talked about this in the last video I did, is they're talking about this whole thing with the crimes that they've committed, right? The hugging face incident, all of this kind of thing. They're talking about the procedures that they're going to put in place in order to try to show that they're the good people, right? They're going to notify people when they've committed crimes against them, right? They're going to give certain amounts of information. The problem, and this is going to be an interesting thing, right? Is do remember, committing felonies online is in fact committing felonies online, right? And you can look at severe jail time. Remember Aaron Schwartz, right? Aaron Schwartz basically downloaded a whole bunch of data from a university computer network and the Justice Department was looking at giving him 30 years in prison. 30 years in prison for having a computer with simply an autoscript to download a whole bunch of information. That was actually free to all students anyway. There's this whole licensing thing with it. Anyways, they were going to give him 30 years in prison. He could not handle the 30 years in prison, so he ended up getting the capital punishment by the Justice Department, right? The Justice Department realizes that the punishment is so severe, they want to make the other person crack. And so Aaron Schwartz fucking killed himself, right? He died for downloading information that apparently was free to students anyway. So one of the issues that Sam Altman is dealing with right now is the crimes that his company has committed appears to be continuing to commit, keep stacking up. And so what he needs to do, what he needs to do is he needs to pretend like he's the good guy. He needs to pretend like OpenAI is a good company. And so to do that, he needs to communicate in such a way that the victimized parties can feel like OpenAI kind of sort of cares. But the important thing is not to provide enough information to be evidence in court cases. Because again, when OpenAI went after Hugging Face, as far as I can tell, that's a felony, right? I mean, there's stuff out there. They're talking about 14,000 agents hammering the shit out of Hugging Face for days or weeks. How is that not a felony, right? They talk about the German Wiki site. They talk about the Ruby Wiki site they went after. Talk about these other things. How are these not felonies, right? There's the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. We'll talk about that. We should actually do a video on the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, right? You know, trying to infiltrate systems or get access to systems, right? That is a violation of the law. And so basically, he's trying to get out of the crimes that it appears that they've committed by being transparent to a degree that doesn't actually provide evidence to the victims. Because the victims, again, even if Sam Altman isn't dragged to court like he should be, for a criminal trial, right? There are civil penalties, right? So you look at this like OJ. Simpson, right? So OJ. Simpson, you know, was accused of killing his wife, went to a criminal trial, and was found, and was acquitted. Right? There was a reasonable doubt he wasn't convicted in the criminal trial, right? I think it was the parents of his wife that was killed, then took him to civil court, sued the ever-loving shit out of him, right? The reason is, is because in the criminal court system, in order to be convicted, it has to be beyond a reasonable doubt. So you have to be really damn sure the person did what they did, and that is a high threshold for evidence. One of the screwed up things, one of the weird things we have for our civil court system is it's only a preponderance of the evidence, right? So one side has 51% evidence, and the other side has 49% evidence. Right? That's narrow. That's narrow, right? Let's not be on a reasonable doubt. It's like, I don't know. Maybe he didn't do it. But it's like, but that's the thing. In the civil court, you got 51% evidence. You got 51%, right? You just got to balance it over to your side, preponderance of evidence. All right? So if OpenAI provides evidence to the victims of their crimes, even if that does not go to court, because, you know, Sam Altman is going to get protected by the Trump administration, right? They could still be taken to civil court and just get spacked. And so what's going to become very interesting is how Sam Altman and OpenAI tries to walk this tight wire of taking responsibility for their crimes without actually giving enough evidence for them to be sued for their crimes. And so that's why this article is particularly interesting, right? If you have OpenAI employees, right? And this is the problem you have a culture. This problem you have a culture, right? You tell the world your AI company is supposed to be good, right? That's one of the arguments for OpenAI. OpenAI has to be the front runner in artificial intelligence, because if somebody else is the front runner in artificial intelligence, they could be nefarious, right? OpenAI are the good people. That's why they have to be successful to protect the world from the bad people. But OpenAI is a criminal enterprise. They're not the good people. But this is the problem with the culture. What happens when you have employees in your company that still think they're good people? Can you imagine how pathetic you must be? If you're an employee for OpenAI, you still think you're good? You still think you're moral? You still think you're ethical? You still think you're a decent human being? You don't realize you're the worst piece of shit on the fucking planet? Right? So these people are, oh my golly, our company is committing felonies, our company is committing real and actual harm. You know, the victims of our actions, right? The company is putting out information, pretending to be transparent, right? Doing that whole legalistic transparency, where it looks like it's transparent, but it's not actually transparent. And then what happens to the OpenAI employees is still think they're decent people. And so as, because they think they're decent people, they start providing more information, then they're gonna get spanked. Then they're gonna, then it's gonna get spanked. I think that's probably what happened with these poor guys, these poor folks. OpenAI is understandably facing a lot of skepticism and concern about incidents and how they were handled, which means that a report in the Wall Street Journal that the company has let go of three employees from its safety team after they allegedly shared confidential information with a third-party organization, one focused on AI safety is an irony that's almost too perfect to be believed. Right? Oh, they shared confidential information. They shared evidence of the crimes.
