"There's no way to get there without a breakthrough," Altman told audiences, as quoted by Reuters. "It motivates us to go invest more in #fusion," adding that we need better ways to store energy from #solar #power.

Of course, there is no reason to save energy, especially as the only way to improve AI models with today's technology is to throw more and more hardware at them. Some invention in the future will save us until then we will continue to heat up the planet.

The San Francisco-based #company made the announcement after days of corporate drama in the wake of Altman’s surprise sacking on Friday.

OpenAI was created as an #opensource (which is why I named it “Open” AI), non-profit company to serve as a counterweight to #Google, but now it has become a closed source, maximum-profit company effectively controlled by #Microsoft.
