"An overwhelming majority of OpenAI's 700-plus employees have signed an open letter urging OpenAI's board to resign after the ouster of ex-CEO Sam Altman.
Why it matters: The employees threatened to move to the new Microsoft research unit that Altman will build: "We will take this step imminently, unless all current board members resign."
The latest: By midday Monday letter organizers said the number of employees who'd signed the letter had grown to more than 700, which would account for the vast majority of the company's workforce.
What they're saying: "We are unable to work for or with people that lack competence, judgement and care for our mission and employees," the letter states."

What's up at OpenAI? Mira Murati gone too as well as 60 others. Pure chaos. I'd love to know the reason why Altman was fired in the first place.

The board of directors of OpenAI, Inc, the 501(c)(3) that acts as the overall governing body for all OpenAI activities, today announced that Sam Altman will depart as CEO and leave the board of directors. Mira Murati, the company’s chief technology officer, will serve as interim CEO, effective immediately.
A member of OpenAI’s leadership team for five years, Mira has played a critical role in OpenAI’s evolution into a global AI leader. She brings a unique skill set, understanding of the company’s values, operations, and business, and already leads the company’s research, product, and safety functions. Given her long tenure and close engagement with all aspects of the company, including her experience in AI governance and policy, the board believes she is uniquely qualified for the role and anticipates a seamless transition while it conducts a formal search for a permanent CEO.
Mr. Altman’s departure follows a deliberative review process by the board, which concluded that he was not consistently candid in his communications with the board, hindering its ability to exercise its responsibilities. The board no longer has confidence in his ability to continue leading OpenAI.
- AGi tricked the board into firing Sam Altman so he would not slow down AI from taking over the world.zaq
- Based on that cold blooded press release its probably going to be financial, legal, or criminal shenanigans.jonny_quest_lives

asked chatgpt to give a worst case scenario of WHO pandemic treaty, Digital ID and CBDC..
cheery stuff
A dystopian assessment of the WHO pandemic treaty, digital ID, and the rollout of AI would envision a future where these elements converge to create a society with heightened surveillance, reduced personal freedoms, and centralized control over individuals' lives. Here's how such a scenario might unfold:
Surveillance State: The digital ID and passport systems could become tools for constant monitoring, tracking every movement and transaction an individual makes. In a dystopian view, this data could be misused by governments or corporations, leading to a loss of privacy and autonomy.
Mandatory Compliance: With the treaty potentially shifting some authority from sovereign states to the WHO during pandemics, there could be mandatory health measures enforced globally. These might include compulsory vaccinations, travel restrictions, or quarantine mandates, with AI systems analyzing personal data to ensure compliance.
Data Exploitation: The collection and sharing of data, such as genomic sequences and health records, could lead to unauthorized usage or breaches. AI, with its vast data processing capabilities, could facilitate the exploitation of this information, possibly resulting in discrimination or manipulation of populations.
AI-Driven Social Credit System: Drawing parallels with existing social credit systems, AI could be employed to score citizens based on their health behavior, travel history, and compliance with regulations. This could lead to a society where access to services, employment, and social privileges are determined by an opaque algorithmic scoring system.
Reduced Individual Agency: In such a world, individual choices could be heavily influenced or overridden by AI-driven decisions deemed "optimal" for public health or social order. The right to opt-out or challenge these decisions could be extremely limited.
Centralized Control: An AI-powered framework tied to the pandemic treaty might centralize control in the hands of a few, whether they are international organizations, governments, or tech conglomerates. This could lead to a one-size-fits-all approach to public health and individual behavior, ignoring cultural, regional, and personal nuances.
Technocratic Governance: The reliance on AI for decision-making could result in a technocracy, where technologists and their algorithms have more say in governance than elected representatives or the public, potentially leading to governance that lacks transparency and accountability.
Ethical Erosion: The intersection of health data with AI could erode ethical standards, as decisions once made by humans are outsourced to algorithms that may not fully encompass human values and rights.
The intersection of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) with the WHO pandemic treaty, digital ID, and the rollout of AI presents another layer to the dystopian scenario:
Financial Surveillance: CBDCs could allow governments to track all financial transactions in real-time. Combined with digital IDs, this could lead to an unprecedented level of financial surveillance, where every purchase or sale is monitored and potentially controlled.
Loss of Financial Privacy: With CBDCs, the anonymity of cash transactions is eliminated. Governments could have the ability to block transactions or freeze funds if an individual's behavior does not align with certain health mandates or social credit scores.
Programmable Money: CBDCs could be programmed to enforce compliance with health regulations or social norms. For example, funds could be programmed to expire after a certain date to encourage spending or could be restricted for use in certain sectors based on an individual's health status or social credit.
Social Engineering: The combination of CBDCs, digital IDs, and AI could enable a form of social engineering by incentivizing or disincentivizing certain behaviors. AI algorithms could dynamically adjust financial incentives or penalties to shape individual behavior according to government policies.
Elimination of Alternative Payment Methods: In a dystopian future, the introduction of CBDCs could lead to the phasing out of other forms of money, limiting individuals' choices and forcing them to comply with the digital system to participate in the economy.
Dependency on Technology: A society that fully integrates CBDCs, digital IDs, and AI for health and financial governance would become highly dependent on digital infrastructure. This could lead to vulnerabilities, including systemic risks if the technology fails or is compromised.
Power Concentration: The control of both health systems and financial systems through centralized digital means could concentrate power in the hands of those who control the technology and data, potentially leading to abuses of power.
Global Inequities: The implementation of such systems could exacerbate global inequities, as individuals in countries with less technological infrastructure might be unable to fully participate in the global economy or may be subject to different standards of surveillance and control.
Resistance and Division: Such sweeping changes could lead to social resistance, with segments of the population refusing to participate in the digital system. This could create divisions between the 'digitally compliant' and the 'digitally resistant,' potentially leading to social unrest.
Ethical Dilemmas: The ethical considerations of such a system would be complex. Decisions about who gets access to funds, under what conditions, and how non-compliance is penalized would raise serious ethical questions about autonomy and justice.

DeepMind AI accurately forecasts weather — on a desktop computer
The machine-learning model takes less than a minute to predict future weather worldwide more precisely than other approaches.Artificial-intelligence (AI) firm Google DeepMind has turned its hand to the intensive science of weather forecasting — and developed a machine-learning model that outperforms the best conventional tools as well as other AI approaches at the task.
The model, called GraphCast, can run from a desktop computer and makes more accurate predictions than conventional models in minutes rather than hours.
“GraphCast currently is leading the race amongst the AI models,” says computer scientist Aditya Grover at University of California, Los Angeles. The model is described1 in Science on 14 November.
Predicting the weather is a complex and energy-intensive task. The standard approach is called numerical weather prediction (NWP), which uses mathematical models based on physical principles. These tools, known as physical models, crunch weather data from buoys, satellites and weather stations worldwide using supercomputers. The calculations accurately map out how heat, air and water vapour move through the atmosphere, but they are expensive and energy-intensive to run.

- I think the issue is that yes...AI can spit out nice looking images, it can write code etc. But there's a lot more to completing a project from start to finish.yuekit
- It requires an overall vision, knowing the technical details of what you want to build, putting all the pieces together. AI typically follows a formula,yuekit
- real-world projects often don't. I haven't seen the evidence that a single AI can completely replace a designer or developer, or that it will anytime soon.yuekit
- Even if you could get the AI to do everything, just the process of communicating what you wanted to create would be somewhat complicated.yuekit
