    Sam Altman is the face of OpenAI. He is responsible for misrepresenting the product he sells. If you’re going to sling blame around, then you had better observe the words of Sam Altman.

    The thing that I think will be most impactful on that five to ten year timeframe is AI will actually discover new science.

    This sick man is taken seriously in mainstream media and politics, and it’s no exaggeration to say he has blood on his hands.

      That’s obviously bullshit but he’s not telling users they can develop time travel or something. That’s the distinction I would draw. He’s selling investment. That’s not where the end users that are misusing ChatGPT are at.

        It’s the job of the company and especially the face and CEO of the company to sell the product. Compared to Sam Altman’s promises, the use in this post is practically modest.

        If you think this isn’t the case, maybe you can point to some ChatGPT marketing that would make it clear what correct, and especially incorrect usage would look like?

          They don’t. They say we made this thing, see what you can do with it. They also put disclaimers on ChatGPT to say not to rely on it to be correct.

          One can infer from that, that any use for which you are relying on accuracy is incorrect use. Which is why it’s critical to have any output filtered through a domain-capable human.

            They don’t.

            This is what the face of OpenAI explicitly says their product is for. Do you have anything more concrete? Or am I just to buy into this infinite good faith and assume that anything dumb Trump Sammy says is just hyperbole?
