Tim Brooks, Creator of Sora Leaves OpenAI for DeepMind

“Creator” is used loosely in such cases. For models of this scale it’s not uncommon to have a dozen people working on just core model design, with a lot more working on data, optimization, evaluation, tuning, alignment etc. Going to Google with Sundar at the helm is inadvisable.

at this rate,i think meta,google and anthropic will matter more in the AI/LLMs race than openAI in few years to come.

I have come to the conclusion that the only thing that really matters at this point in AI is funding right now.<p>Here&#x27;s why. The models are all sort of variations on the transformer architecture. But what sets models apart is $$$ worth of hardware to train the bigger model, and $$$ to obtain better training data.<p>So I don&#x27;t think it will hurt OpenAI as much as we think. The software is the easy part at this point I think.

OpenAI is definitely planning to IPO within the next 12-18 months after it restructures into a for profit.

So is there any actual innovating technical talent left at OpenAI? Or is it now all just money people and &quot;line goes up&quot; AI self promoting grifters?

I really wonder what sama did internally for this to happen. Must be that founder mode energy that pg keeps talking about.

I am starting to think the only one stay at OpenAI in the end is Sam Altman at this rate.
