I feel very lucky that we don't have the challenges at OpenAI that I have heard of at a lot of other companies. I think part of it is like... Every company's got some ideological thing.

San Francisco's a mess in all sorts of ways, of course. So that doesn't infiltrate OpenAI? I'm sure it does in all sorts of subtle ways, but not in the obvious.

We've had our flare-ups for sure, like any company, but I don't think we have anything like what I hear about happen at other companies here on this topic.

And it won't be like, it's not like you have one safety team. It's like when we shipped GPT-4, that took the whole company thing with all these different aspects and how they fit together. And I think it's going to take that. More and more of the company thinks about those issues all the time.

It'll be all those things. Yeah, I was going to say it'll be people, state actors trying to steal the model. It'll be all of the technical alignment work. It'll be societal impacts, economic impacts. It'll It's not just like we have one team thinking about how to align the model. It's really going to be like getting to the good outcome is going to take the whole effort.
