3,980 wordsSam mman Greg Brookman ilas suser and the whole opening I board have responded to Elon musk's lawsuit let's dive right into [Music] it so in today's video we'll start off with a brief summary of opening eyes response and the different points they cover then we'll do a deep dive into the open AI blog post as well as the open aai email communication all right so let's get started allegations of seeking control so openi has countered Elon musk's lawsuit asserting that musk
Desired absolute control over the company must proposed merging opening eye with Tesla or gaining full control including majority equity and CEO position which opening I rejected to preserve its Mission dismissal of claims so open ey plans to dismiss all claims made by musk emphasizing that the company's Mission did not imply open sourcing artificial general intelligence AGI and the company has highlighted past Communications where Mr musk or musk agreed with the approach of not sharing all AI developments and then musk contributions
And regrets so opening eye acknowledges musk's early contributions by suggest but suggests his lawsuit may stem from regrets about no longer being involved with the company musk's significant financial support and involvement is uh in key Milestones are recognized but open AI disputes his current claims and then legal respective so legal experts have questioned the enforceability of the supposed funding founding agreement mus refers to in his lawsuit this the case is seen as unusual and potentially weak with doubts about whether the
Court will interpret musk's decision as a bonding contract and then open ai's Independence and Mission so open AI maintains its independence and commitment to ensure AGI benefits all of humanity despite musk's claims of it being a close Source deao subsidiary of Microsoft and the company expresses disappointment in musk's actions given his previous role as co-founder and supporter and musk vision and open ai's Direction so must vision for open AI included a closed relationship with Tesla which was not aligned with open
Ai's Direction open AI transformation from a nonprofit to a for-profit entty with a capped profit structure has been a point of contention all right so now let's actually dive into the um the blog post I just want to give you guys a quick summary just for those who wanted the news right away but if you want to actually dive into what open ass statement is we're going to do so right now so we here have on open ai's official blog post
Open Ai and Elon Musk we are dedicated to the open AI Mission and have pursued it every step of the way you can see here the authors right here R Brockman ilot suer Sam mman and the other openingi members so the mission of openi is to ensure AGI benefits all of humanity which means both building safe and beneficial AGI and helping create broadly distributed benefits we are now sharing what we've learned about achieving our mission and some facts about our relationship
With Elon we intend to move to dismiss all of elon's claims we receive build we realize building AGI will require far more resources than we initially imagined Elon said we should announce an initial $1 billion funding commitment to open AI in total the nonprofit has raised less than 45 million from Elon and more than 90 million from other donors when starting open AI in late 2015 Greg and Sam had initially planned to raise 100 million Elon said in an email we
Need to go with a much bigger number than 100 million to avoid sounding hopeless I think we should say that we are starting with a 1 billion funding commitment I will cover whatever anyone else doesn't provide we spent a lot of time trying to Envision a plausible path to AGI in early 2017 we came to a realization that building AGI will require vast quantities of compute we began calculating how much compute and AGI might plausibly require we all understood we were
Going to need a lot more Capital to succeed at our mission billions of dollars per year which was far more than any of us especially Elon thought we'd be able to raise as the nonprofit We and Elon recognized a for-profit entity would necessary necess uh would be necessary to acquire those resources as we discussed at for-profit structure in order to further the mission Elon wanted to us to merge with Tesla or he wanted full control Elon left open AI saying there
Needed to be a relevant competitor to Google d/ Deep Mind and then he was going to do it himself he said he'd be supportive of us finding our own path in the late 2017 we and Elon decided the next step for the mission was to create a for-profit entity Elon wanted us wanted majority equity in initial board control and to be the CEO in the middle of these discussions he withheld funding Reed Hoffman bridged the Gap to cover salaries and operations
We couldn't AF agree to terms on a for-profit with Elon because we felt it wasn't it was against the mission for any individual to have absolute control over open AI he then suggested instead of merging open AI into Tesla in early in early February 2018 Elon forwarded us an email suggesting that open AI should attach to Tesla as its Cash Cow commenting that it was exactly right Tesla is the only path that could even hope to hold a candle to Google
Even then the probability of being a counterweight to Google is small it's it just isn't zero Elon soon chose to leave open AI saying that our probability of success was zero and that he planned to build an AGI competitor within Tesla when he left it in late February 2018 he told our team he was supportive of us finding our own path to raising billions of dollars in December 2018 Elon sent us an email even saying even raising 700 million won't be
Enough this this needs billions per year immediately or forget it and that's referencing proof number three we'll go over the proof in just a second we advance our mission by building widely available beneficial tools we're making our tools broadly usable in ways that Empower people and improve their daily lives including via open source contributions we provide broad access to today's most powerful AI in including a free version that hundreds of millions of people use every day for example Albania in is
Using openi tools to accelerate its EU extension by as much as 5.5 years dig greens is helping boost farmer income in Kenya and India by dropping the cost of Agricultural Extension Services 100 times by building on open AI Lipan the largest healthcare provider in Rhode Island uses GPT 4 to simplify its surgical consent forms from a college reading level to a sixth grade one Iceland is using GPT 4 to preserve the icelantic language and in Elon understood the mission did not
Imply open sourcing AGI as AIA told Elon as we get closer to building AI it will make sense to start uh being less open the open in open AI means that every one should benefit from the fruits of AI after it's built but it's totally okay to not share the science to which Elon replied yep interesting so we're sad that it has come to uh this with someone whom we've deeply admired someone who uh who inspired us to aim higher then
Told us we would fail started a competitor and then sued us when we started me making meaningful progress towards opening eyes Mission without him we are focused on advancing our and have a long way to go as we continue to make our tools better and uh tools better and better we are excited to deploy these systems so they Empower every individual now let's go through some of these emails so we have the first email from Elon to Greg Brockman CC Sam
Mman date Sunday November 22nd 2015 8:48 uh 7:48 p.m. subject fall up from call blog sounds good assuming adjustments for neutrality vers being YC Centric by combinator I'd favor positioning the blog to appeal a bit more to the general public there is a lot of value to having the public root for us to succeed and then having a longer more detailed and inside baseball version for recruiting with a link to it at the end for the general public version we need
To go for a much bigger number than 100 million to avoid sounding hopeless relative to what Google or Facebook are spending I think we should say that we are starting with a $1 billion funding commitment this is real I will cover whatever anyone else doesn't provide template seems fine apart from shifting to a VES a vesting cash bonus as default which can optionally uh be turned to into YC our potential Space X need to understand how much this will be stock
And then Elon to ilas suser Greg Brockman this is the second email date Thursday February 1st 2018 at 3:53 p.m. uh subject Ford top uh AI institutions today blank is exactly right we may wish it otherwise but in the end my and blank's opinion Tesla is the only path that could even hope to hold the candle to Google even then the probability of being a counterweight to Google is small it's just it just isn't zero being forwarded message begin forwarded message
And then from blank blank to Elon January thir 31st 2018 at 11:54 p.m. subject same subject and then working at The Cutting edge of AI is unfortunately expensive for example blank in addition to Deep Mind Google has uh Google brain research and cloud and tensorflow tpus and they own about a third of all research in fact they hold their own AI conferences I strongly suggest that compute horsepower will be necessary and possibly even sufficient to reach AGI if historical Trends are
Any indication progress in AI is primarily driven by systems compute data and infrastructure the core algorithms we use today have remained largely unchanged from the 90s not only that but any algorithmic advances published in a paper somewhere can almost immediately be reimplemented and reincorporated conversely algorithmic advances alone are inert without the scale to also make them scary it seems to me that open AI today is burning cash and that the funding model cannot reach the scale to seriously compete with Google
An $800 billion Company If You Can can seriously compete but continue to do research in open you might in fact be making things worse by helping them out for free because any advances are fairly easy to for them to copy and immediately incorporate at scale a for-profit pivot might create a more sustainable Revenue stream over time and would be and with the current team likely bring in a lot of investment however building out a product from scratch would steal Focus from
AI research it would take a long time and it's unclear if a company could catch up to Google's scale and the investors might exert too too much pressure in the wrong directions the most promising option I can think of as mentioned earlier would be for open AI to attach to Tesla as its Cash Cow I believe attachments to other large uh suspects example Apple Amazon would fail due to an incompatible company DNA using a rocket analogy Tesla already built the first
Stage of the rocket with the whole supply chain of model 3 and its o onboard computer and a persistent internet connection the second stage would be a full self- serving driving based on a large scale neural network tra uh training which opening eye expertise could significantly help accelerate without a functioning full self uh self-driving solution in two to three years we could sell a lot of cars SL trucks or with a full Ser functioning and then if we do this really
Well the transportation industry is large enough that we could increase Tesla's market cap to a high of z- 100K and use that Revenue to fund the work at the uh appropriate scale I cannot see anything that anything else that has the potential to reach substantial Google scale Capital within a decade and then that's from blank this is to Elon from who knows and then from Elon to ilas suver and Greg Brookman and and that's CC Sam mman on Wednesday December 26
2018 at 12:07 p.m. I feel I should rein reiterate so my probability assessment of open aai Relevant to Google deep mind/ gooogle without a dramatic change in execution and resources is 0% not 1% I wish they were otherwise even raising several hundred million won't be enough this needs billions per year immediately or forget it unfortunately Humanity's future is in the hands of blank right and then a blank and then and they are doing a lot more than this more redacted and
Then I really hope I'm wrong Elon and then fourth email forward congrats on the Falcon 9 from Elon to samman elas suser Greg Brockman date SE Saturdays January 2nd 2016 at 818 a.m. subject forward congrats on the Falcon 9 and then begin forward a message from Elon from blank to Elon January 2nd 2016 at 10 12 a.m. all right so hi Elon happy New Year's to you congratulations on the uh Landing the Falcon 9 what an amazing achievement time to build
Out the fleet now I've seen you and Sam and other open AI people doing a lot of interviews recently extoling the virtues of open AI open sourcing AI but I presume you realize this is not some sort of Panacea that will somehow magically solve the safety problem there are many good arguments as to why the the approach you are taking is actually very dangerous and in fact may increase the risk of the to the world some of the more obvious points
Are well articulated in this blog post that I'm sure you've seen But there are also important considerations and then it's linked to slatestarcodex.com let's just quickly look at this blog post so should AI be open we're not going to go through this but I'm assuming that it highlights a lot of different points as to know the pros and cons of AI being open I'd be interested to to hear your counterarguments to these points and then from Ilia to Elon Sam Alman
Brockman and date is Saturday January 2nd 2016 at 9:00 a.m. this article is concerned with a hard takeover takeoff scenario if a hard takeoff occurs and a safe AI is harder to build than an unsafe one then by open sourcing everything we make it easier for someone unscrupulous with access to overwhelming amount of Hardware to build an unsafe AI which will experience a hard takeoff as we be in as we get closer to building AI it will make sense to start
Being less open the open in open AI means that everyone should benefit from the fruits of AI after it's built but it's totally okay to not share the science even though sharing everything is definitely the right strategy in the short and possible medium term for the recruitment process and then from IL or from Elon to Ilia suser date January 2nd 2016 911 a.m. him saying yep okay so that's interesting that is kind of opening eyes uh response at least now this
Is literally um they just posted this so it's March 5th 2024 so I mean I'm it's going to be curious to see elon's response as well as how this actually plays out let me know what your thoughts are in the comments down below it's interesting right I do see different aspects on both sides I mean it's it is I mean I see both sides of the perspective the one thing is that Elon is saying which one of the points he is
Really trying to get across is that he is saying that gp4 is basically a form of AGI and in that regard he's trying to stop their their licensing deal with Microsoft which they Microsoft only has um the rights to license GPT until for their pre AGI training models so Elon is trying to say that gbd4 is Agi and that that is you know that they can't have that licensing deal right now um with Microsoft which is basically yeah so I mean
I did a whole video breaking down that actual lawsuit reading through the whole thing so if you want an update on that you can go check out a couple videos ago and and go through that um so I kind of see what he's saying there I mean he's if it is Agi I mean you know there is it is kind of hard for for us to Define AGI at this point you know different people have different definitions I can see how
It could possibly be like a pre AGI model or like a somewhat AGI model so I get elon's point there and then also open AI basically saying that hey like Elon knew that we were going to kind of transition to a more closed Source model in the medium longterm he even wanted us to you know basically use Tesla as a cash cow or be like have full control over it so I I see both sides of this the Spectrum as or
The perspective as to you know elon's side openingi side Sam Wan's side um I can see Elon how he's like kind of pissed off that he gave all this money and I mean open AI turned to close AI like he said but at the same time this is open AI trying to kind of debunk that like saying that hey Elon kind of knew that this would happened in the long term I don't know let me know what your thoughts are though
It's going to be really interesting to see how this evolves I just wanted to get this video out to you guys really quickly because this news just dropped and um you know this will this affect how things roll out with open AI in terms of qar GPT 5 we just saw some stuff from Claud 3 and thropic which is pretty interesting which could as well all like anything that happens like this all this politics drama as well as competition does affect
The AI industry in terms of how things are going to be rolled out new updates and just and whatnot and any regulations or Law whatever the case may be it that it all has an effect so um anthropic rolled out claw 3 yesterday pretty crazy stuff if you'd haven't seen that check out my uh last video as well on that and uh I'm going to be doing more videos on that as well but let me know what your thoughts are about
This Elon and open AI situation are you team Elon are you team Sam what are your thoughts do you think Elon has a case do you think these emails do anything do you think they actually like you know kind of combat anything Elon said in that lawsuit or are do they not really do anything for open AI Cas what are your thoughts also too guys you will notice this bar scrolling right here if you haven't already if you're new to this
