The "OpenAI Files" sound really bad, until you look into them. Most of these are total nonsense, and I wanted to break down why...

This is like watching an investment banker do a code review.

I live in a moderately sized desert town with limited water. OpenAI adjacent contractors are now building a giant data center here, water rates have risen 20%. This is so fucked.

What the... His water point about environmental impact is just wild. Does he really believe that water rains back to the same place where it is evaporated? At the same rate it was evaporated? Does wind exist? Not to mention all the other issues from groundwater up... Pretty classic "common sense" take.

OpenAI promised to build safe, transparent AGI for the world. What they're actually building looks more like a closed, centralized system focused on profit with very little public accountability.

Vagueness is the problem with every legislation that tries to address problems that don't exist yet. The EU is just trying its best to make sure AI is regulated, and they want to do that proactively. The only way to make sure that you capture all the problems/risks that AI could have is make it vague. This makes it hard for companies to know if they are at risk of being suede, but it's a political choice to make. If you wait until the problems have happed then the damage is already done. I side with the EU on this, it's better to have legislation that can prevent it than none at all.

Know your planning an "anthropic wierd vibes vid". I think its worth covering the relationship between the Amoedis and Sam more; its definitely shaped Anthropic today. Also the 80,000 hours people, the host that made that list, that's part of the EA movement, so the "earn to give" stuff (SBF) and some AI Doomerism (Toner and Anthropic to some degree)
