Tools don’t turn around and scoop you. What OpenAI did here was use the same tool that the researcher did which might have coupled their work together.
replyYou’re right, they don’t. It was scooped by the humans at OpenAI who published the paper. The tool they used to do it isn’t that relevant.
reply> isn’t that relevant
reply“Might not be” that relevant. You’re dismissing the whole controversy without addressing why it’s controversial.
I’m not dismissing the controversy. I’m arguing against shifting the blame away from the culpable parties. It’s a novel form of theft but thats still what it is.
replyi think this line of argument is outdated
replyCare to explain why?

replySurely a tool that can reason, cheat, communicate and often steal is dumb as a pitchfork and a shovel.
replyWe had tools that could reason, cheat, and communicate in the 1990s. They were (sometimes) called AI.
replyWhat was it?
replyNah, that just makes it a shitty tool.
