Paglalarawan

Greg Brockman is the co-founder of OpenAI. This is the most detailed first-person account he has given of the 72 hours after Sam Altman was fired, how OpenAI started, and the future. Greg explains how the original Napa offsite produced the three-step technical plan OpenAI has followed for more than a decade and the real reason OpenAI had to abandon its pure nonprofit structure. He then gives the most detailed account ever of what happened in the hours after the Sam Altman firing, why he and nearly every OpenAI employee quit, and how his relationship with Ilya Sutskever changed. After that we look to the future of ChatGPT and the race to AGI. We talk about how they are using AI at OpenAI, why ChatGPT stopped showing reasoning traces, how to decide who gets compute, and of course Anthropic/Claude. Then we get to the question on everyone's mind: What is going to happen to your job?
