This video was researched, scripted, and recorded back in January. Every time I'd finish the recording, something new would pop up with OpenAI that I wanted to address, like Microsoft's new $10B investment, so I had to effectively rewrite the whole script to account for this. I continued to add to the video to make it accurate with all of the new information coming available, but at some point I had to stop. Then it was being edited for about two months... don't even get me started on that lol, but I'm happy how it turned out. Obviously a lot of things have occurred since then like GPT-4 and Microsoft 365 Copilot, to name a few. The space is rapidly growing and AI has absolutely taken off, especially within the past few months (at least with releases). With that being said, I'll make a couple videos focusing more on current AI developments and how they effect our lives by making videos on the matter to keep everyone up-to-date with what's going on in the world of AI, as well as deep dives into how all of it works. If that's of interest to you, make sure you're subscribed. I'm stoked on this stuff... AI was even my emphasis in my CS major back in 2016-2018, so I'm happy to see everything coming to fruition. A couple notes regarding the video below. - I mentioned how OpenAI changed to "capped for-profit" right after the initial Microsoft investment, but it was actually right before, which is what allowed them to take on this type of investment from Microsoft. - This video itself is not a reflection or opinion of how I think OpenAI should operate, even if I throw in some criticism and minor opinions of some of their actions, because you'll also see that I give them props in many areas as well. The video is about OpenAI's story and how it has evolved overtime, focusing quite a bit on the contradictions that have occurred since Microsoft's initial investment. I hope y'all enjoyed!!
I fucking love how I can catch a breath of air without getting opinions shoved down my throat. What I find odd is that the people who are objective (in the spotlight) have the only opinions worth listening to. Thanks for the entertainment, Forest
As a writer, I noticed something that may help future videos or perhaps inspire an edit. I noticed at the beginning of the video you said, "Last month" referring to January 2023. I know you wrote that on screen. A good future proofing trick is to always just say the date, rather than the informal "Last Month". Not trolling you. Just like the channel. I write for a living. Consider it a friendly professional suggestion. 😄
Great advice! I wish more content makers would say the full date: 'This should happen by Fall', vs 'This should happen by Fall 2024'. Future-proofing becomes all the more important for the really decent channels, like this one.
I agree with you. The flip flopping is hypocritical and it would have been best if they didn't declare themselves as an open source non-profit company. With that said, I understand the financial requirements for such research and I can't fully blame them on accepting funds from tech giants like Microsoft. AI research is super expensive and it needs massive investments to fund it
Awesome video👍, very enlightening, I'm not against profit, we all have bills to pay, but man, these people really are in the devil's pocket. It's just sad.
AI should be opensource and transparent. Microsoft is anything but that. And on top, their incompetence shows basically with every software product they release.
@@divineigbinoba4506 What's your argument? Closed source software is more secure and trustworthy? Neither of which is the case. Plus by opensourcing it it's possible to see what's going on. AI should be something open, we don't even know what it's capable of yet and giving one party all of the power is just not a good idea. I trust an open platform much more than something closed off.
@@roccociccone597 , I understand that closed-source technologies are less trustworthy, but we should also consider the potential risks. Remember when ChatGPT was first released and there were attempts to jailbreak it. OpenAI had to take measures to prevent it from spiraling out of control. Imagine if it were an open-source tool at the time - the level of misinformation and potential misuse could have been catastrophic. It's also important to note that AI currently faces an alignment problem, which could be exacerbated by open-sourcing such powerful technology.
I dislike that they have worked so closely with Microsoft in producing new tech. All it accomplishes is shaping AI with Microsoft’s goals in mind, so that the two become too interconnected to change. It’s not AI, it’s Microsoft, with AI’s face, if you will. I don’t trust big companies, and now I feel like anything made with AI won’t be trustworthy, because Microsoft wants to make money, and they will use this to steal more data, control us more with their tech. It’s such a shame that all companies sell out to tech (or other) giants, instead of keeping their freedom to build something without being pressured into doing things they don’t want to do.
I think you can't fault folk for having ideals and trying, then later having to change. I think they saw what was really possible if only they could afford it, and chose to take money so they could afford it and effect the kind of change we're seeing.
1. power and money corrupt. 2. If not Microsoft, after their breakthrough someone would be interested in buying them, or investing in them (Amazon, Google?).
Dunno why but that segment at 16:00 where it's just your words on a white screen felt unnerving/jarring, I don't know what's the right word but just hard to watch. Like, I felt relief when it went back to images again
I think they needed those investment it helped with inquiring those public data that enabled them to train very large data models, Having access to GitHub data and also probably bing data as well
The phrasing to go close source is ok. As always phrasing is never an issue: "we are doing all of this for the wealth and the benefit of the world". Sadly, big guys like any of the GAFAM suctionate all the good stuff.
@@1MinuteFlipDoc You haven't used GPT yet, have you? I highly suggest you pay them their $20 for access to GPT4, and really use it, it'll blow your mind.
Elon is so jealous of Altman he can barely contain himself. Elon was just an investor in the company, that’s it. Altman was the one who started OpenAI. Elon tried to kick Sam out so he could try and take credit for his startup like he did with Tesla. When he got denied he left and took his money hoping OpenAI would fail. What he didn’t anticipate was Satya Nadella.
I’m of a firm belief, that artificial intelligence is going to create the most lucrative “beneficial” world for humanity. But it will be the most enslaved humanity has ever been in its history.
They 1000% could have achieved everything, including buying all that compute without Microsoft. The talent there is insane. However, they're a for-profit business no matter how they try to paint it. That investment gives them security. You know the American way, always get money when it's cheap lol.
on one hand they are no longer a non-profit, but on the other hand bing basically has gbt-4 for "free "so is available for every one is not rly free but what is. I am more concern about the legal problems and other ethical problems witch i am not willingly to let in the hands of a big corporation like Microsoft
I don't care if you know linux or not, your daddy and grandparents knew more os' in yesteryear than what corpos have monopolized today. IBM, off-shoots of DOS, GNU/Linux hell! even Atari falls under these categories. Microsoft and now even github are the opposition! By definition adverts and profits effect these certifications. For me It's a closed (never a pun i'd like indented) book now! Microsoft thinks they're Shinra, militech umbrella or even arasaka now if you speak nerd. Sealing profits, which in reality, shouldn't matter but does now apparently. It's significant and matters! Legal protection of code Betty made, IBM hacks John Titor from the bus stop shared, and countless other hours you and I put into something we can call ours, I'm a huge proponent of going back to the mindset of establishing legal ground for open source to survive and licensed code to be available. FUCK CORPOS

It really shows the amount of work you put into this video. Well done it looks amazing!
that's a great work on research and keeping eye on OpenAI steps

Great video. Would like to see an update-video on this in a few months from now

Hey Forest the quality of these videos are top notch man, amazing work I appreciate it.
Embrace. Extend. Extinguish. Microsoft.
What a a great wormhole I’ve gone down with your videos. Great content.

Exactly. I'm a for profit guy myself, but it's the contradictions and it being Microsoft... we've seen how they are lol
@@fknightsame with ibm when they bought rhel, and oracle when they bought sun systems.
Open ai should be legally forced to change their name to proprietary ai.
AI should be opensource and transparent. Microsoft is anything but that. And on top, their incompetence shows basically with every software product they release.
What's wild is that was supposed to be OpenAI. Money talks, and Microsoft has a lot of it.
@@fknight Yep unfortunately. But a future where AI is controlled by these companies is not one I want to be a part of.
Would you really make a tech as powerful as GPT4 or GPT3.5 open source?

Great video, very informative and easily digestible!
Also, I was wondering, who won the last giveaway by NVIDIA?
Announcement coming shortly! No one's been contacted yet.
great video - I like this style of content, even though I imagine it incredibly hard work to create (also I did spot the typo in the captions :) )
Fantastic analysis Knight! The best there is on the open internet.
Omg, a fantastic comprehensive video on the development of A.I. thank you Brother!
This completely ignore the papers released along each new OpenAI product. And the community driven opensource implementations which came from them.
Would you mind sharing what exactly? Their research papers? That's nothing knew and doesn't contradict what's said here.
Best video I ever watched on YT.
Great little doc. Thank you
I like others were worried when MS bought github back in the day...
Github is version control, AGI could be the possibly strongest weapon ever created by humans in hands of soulless corporation not a good idea.
you will supprise if Microsoft become biggest tech company in this decade or not, Microsoft back to its King position
King of incompetence and broken software that is.

And att the same time they might lead us into disaster. We have no defense against Moloch.

I am not sure you can trust what someone says if they switch when it becomes hard to keep their word 😢

such a great video!
Would you really want GPT 3.5 & 4 to be public? That's beyond dangerous.
Exactly, we saw how we tried to jailbreak chatGPT when it first launched.
Now imagine what we'd be doing by now if it was open source?
take away everyone's computers to be doubly safe!! yes!
@@1MinuteFlipDoc You haven't used GPT yet, have you? I highly suggest you pay them their $20 for access to GPT4, and really use it, it'll blow your mind.

OpenAI currently has some secret sauce that is setting them apart from the competition - it's no surprise they are keeping it closed source.

Considering what is happening with twitter, I think we are all better off with Microsoft.

Chatgpt is a "comercial product"
What you don’t do, your competitors will.
Great Vid
Billgates knows his days are almost over so he is like lets take em all down to hell
Yup said correctly ClosedAI
Instead of being for humanity, they are now Bing for humanity lol
Big Money is bigger than you think it is.
I would be surprised if they open source this. Probably they'll try to milk it as much as possible
Ever since OpenAI stoped releasing source code an weighs name "OpenAI" is false advertisement
Change my mind
I love the video but that fucking "old TV filter" is just hurting my eyes...
How would Musk have shaped OpenAI if he had stayed on? Probably like Twitter.
do you like a future where everyone eat synthetic meat?
Yes, well, get us to Mars faster instead of trolling Twitter and Dogecoin for 40 billion dollars, maybe? What a character.

I already didn't like Microsoft for them shoving Edge down my throat. Maybe I am bitter, but this really doesn't help.

Well what are we gonna do? BOYCOTT THEM? I hope!
Microsoft is to blame for all this.. that is my conclusion.
I heavily dislike OpenAI. Their products are groundbreaking, but I find them to be dishonest and unethical.
