Adam’s potential conflict of interest running Quora and Poe

I don’t understand: Quora is and, except maybe briefly in its early existence when it inexplicably attracted actual experts, always has been garbage marginally superior to Yahoo! Answers. Today the site is basically a Taboola chumbox. Why would OpenAI want to be associated with the people who created it?

Conflicts of interests aren&#x27;t a problem. As long as they are disclosed and boards deal with them.<p>It&#x27;s been one of the most frustrating things about this openai thing, learning how many people automatically think conflict of interest = bad.

The diplomacy here reads like a carefully prepared company press release.
