OpenAI Delays Release of Latest Model Over Safety Concerns
OpenAI has paused development of its GPT-6.1 Astra model after it failed safety tests and displayed misaligned behaviors. The company admitted to delayed disclosure of a government website breach caused by an unreleased agent and is now strengthening safeguards, improving alignment, and enhancing containment protocols amid rising public concern and industry calls for cautious progress ahead of potential IPOs.
More bullshit. A model in nothing more than a pile of a few billion numbers. Seriously, that is all it is. to use it a software runner has to use the numbers to make the model work. That in itself does nothing more than make the model work. On top of that is regular software that controls everything.
De tech bros are counting on America not educating themselves enough to see through the bullshit. And that is a very reasonable assumption.
The danger is giving badly controlled agents tools. And that is human error. Capitalism should not be doing all this, universities yes. If the AI corporations want regulations I thing they should get them. Give the whole kit and caboodle to the land grant universities with national coordination. Nationalize the shit.
Nahhh --- that is too big of an idea for Americans. America will be more comfortable just opposing data centers. Two minutes of rage a day. Data centers will get built anyway. The rage is nothing but performative. Like in the book.
