    OpenAI Part2: Ilya Dreams of AGI

    OpenAI employees were motivated by the dream of building an artificial general intelligence, which could think and solve problems like a human mind.

Meanwhile, a power struggle between Sam Altman and Elon Musk led to Musk’s departure from the company. In this episode, reporter Ellen Huet takes a look at OpenAI’s early days and the company’s shift away from its promises to be open-source and nonprofit.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Foundering: The OpenAI Story (Trailer)

    The biggest story in tech is artificial intelligence, and the biggest story in AI is OpenAI. The company’s rapid progress and blazingly popular consumer products like ChatGPT have pushed tech giants to dump billions of dollars into an AI arms race. OpenAI’s CEO, Sam Altman, has been dogged by persistent allegations of being manipulative, deceitful, and power hungry – even to the point of being fired by his own board. This season of Foundering takes listeners straight to the heart of the AI explosion: feuds, betrayals, billionaires, and the extinction of humanity…. maybe?  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
