What was interesting about the Open AI restructuring was I read the letter and your lawsuit was excluded from the
00:00:07
allowances which means that your lawsuit is still out there, right? And I think it's going to go to a jury trial.
00:00:12
Yes. There's a mountain of evidence that shows that OpenAI was created as an open
00:00:17
source nonprofit. That's the exact description in the incorporation documents. They've completely violated
00:00:22
that and they try to change the definition of OpenAI to mean open to everyone instead of open source, even
00:00:27
though it always meant open source. Mhm. I came up with the name. Yeah, that's how I know.
00:00:33
I mean, essentially since I came up with the idea for the company, named it, provided the A, B, and C rounds of
00:00:39
funding, recruited the critical personnel, and told them everything I know. If that had been a commercial
00:00:43
corporation, I'd probably own half the company. It was totally at my discretion. I could have done that. But
00:00:47
I created as an open source nonprofit for the world. Do you think the right thing to do is to
00:00:51
take those models and just open source them today? Yeah, I think that is what it was
00:00:56
created to do. So, it should. Whereas like try using any of the recent so-called OpenAI open source models.
00:01:01
They don't work. They open sourced a broken non- workinging version of their models as a fig leaf. I mean do you know
00:01:06
anyone who's running OpenAI's open source models? No. Exactly.
