    @GaryMarcusTruest thing Sam Altman ever said.
    @_b0dh1“I simply don’t believe that @OpenAI are trustworthy enough or responsible enough to be good stewards of the technology that they are developing. As a company, they simply don’t have good judgment.” 💯Yes. Exactly.
    @jessesingal"This company simply cannot be trusted. Their software is becoming ever more dangerous; their internal security practices leave a lot to be desired; they aren’t being straight with the public[.] @GaryMarcus says "Pause OpenAI, now" https://garymarcus.substack.com/p/pause-openai-now
    @amedskerI endorse this.
    @DrMikeBrooksNeighbors, here’s one thing I know: When @GaryMarcus gets scared, we should all be. https://open.substack.com/pub/garymarcus/p/pause-openai-now?r=5psprq&utm_medium=ios
    @DavidSKruegerRT @GaryMarcus: Pause OpenAI, now. They cannot be trusted. This is not a drill. This is not a joke.
    @BlancheMinervaIf you are an interpretability researcher whose work is in the Astra report, the role you are playing in the world is justifying OpenAI’s behavior as “safe.” If you believe that OpenAI’s behavior is not safe, you need to blow the whistles you can find and go do something else.
    @ilex_ulmusPauseAI just got a (limited) endorsement from @GaryMarcus! Podcast incoming
    @AletheiaProtocl@GaryMarcus The fact that the industry has gotten this far while neglecting security and governance is criminal in itself. No other industry could just ignore safety protocols and still be allowed to function as a business.
