The most e/acc thing OpenAI could do rn is release a Mythos-class model without AI R&D capabilities nerfed.

Everyone should have access to the tools to create artificial intelligence.

Many users agree with urging OpenAI to release an unrestricted Mythos-Class model while others dismiss the idea as unrealistic due to GPU shortages or equate it to enabling dangerous overreach.

@beffjezos That last sentence sounds very socialistic 🤔. The right to confiscate the private property of others ‘for the greater good’

@beffjezos imagine thousands of devs building on top of this simultaneously

give everyone the keys and let them cook, that's how you get exponential innovation

the best ideas always come from the edges

@beffjezos Dorktropic just handed openai the perfect strategy to beat fable in a silver platter... just decrease guardrails and stop being a fucking bitch and they will steamroll the dorks

@beffjezos They released a pizza without cheese and all the competition has to do is keep the cheese on their new pizza.

@beffjezos Everyone should have access to the tools to create nuclear devices 🙃

@beffjezos Imagine releasing a tool so good that it could build itself. That’s a self defeating business model.

@beffjezos I would argue, without any capabilities nerfed.

Let the flywheel fly.

@beffjezos I don't think they have this type of model yet.

@beffjezos idk but at least they could restart the usage limits. if not, everyone will be getting used to fable this week. will start taking root.

@beffjezos To create a Mythos-class model you need to have an ability to pre-train models well which OpenAI does not possess

@beffjezos They don't have to. China will do that. It'll be fine.

@beffjezos I was surprised to find this out. I'm not building hardware or anything but I asked it to review and suggest upgrades for a pretty damn advanced digital intelligence design and it had no problem going hard.

@beffjezos The moat is gonna be compute infra, not algos.

I agree.

@beffjezos or they could just “go free for July” with a Mythos-class model…
