No nothing to do with that. Read up on the report by The Information about how much OpenAI spent in the first half-year vs. how much they collected in revenues, maybe that will clear things up ?
This kind of comment isn’t helpful. Of course, people around here also want AI to succeed for various reasons. Everyone has an agenda. Judge based on the merit of the argument.
The issue is that motivated arguments aren’t honest. It becomes like arguing about politics or religion.
If it turns out that OpenAI becomes wildly profitable, they’ll just shift to some other argument about the environment or the specialness of human thought or whatever.
But they aren’t profitable, and there’s no clear path for them to become profitable. The people you’re railing against aren’t exactly wrong to be skeptical.
