(The OpenAI-Microsoft relationship seems like a big deal. Why haven’t I heard more about this?)
It is a big deal, but it’s been widely reported on and discussed here for years, and particularly within the last year, given that Microsoft keeps releasing AI products based on OpenAI tech. Not sure why you haven’t heard about it.
No, I’ve seen the existing discussion, but I’m suggesting that Microsoft’s safety practices are as important as OpenAI’s, which is inconsistent with the general discourse.
… but I’m suggesting that Microsoft’s safety practices are as important as OpenAI’s...
Who has claimed, or even implied, otherwise?
EDIT: I’m assuming at least one alternative viewpoint was encountered previously, so it doesn’t seem like a big ask to spend 20 seconds to write down when that occurred for the benefit of the passing reader.
Perhaps I misread the implication and Zach has literally never encountered a different viewpoint on this.
I don’t have anything specific to point to; in my experience, AI safety folks pay lots more attention to OpenAI than Microsoft (because OpenAI is much better at making powerful models).
