Sam Altman

Then it turned out that Scarlett Johansson was really mad because Sam Altman had gone to her last year and said, hey, would you like to be a voice for this thing? And she thought about it and she said, no, I don't want to. And then...

Apparently, after he had posted, like just in the couple days before the demo, he'd gone back to her agents and tried to renegotiate this whole thing and said, are you sure you don't want to be the voice for this thing? And she said no, and they showed it off anyway. And they never said, this is Scarlett Johansson, but they absolutely let everyone believe it.

And so that's why we're going to come up with a very unusual structure for ourselves and try to do absolutely everything we can do in our power to proceed safely, cautiously, and responsibly. And so you look at the Scarlett Johansson thing, and none of that squares with their behavior in that case.

So I should say the Wall Street Journal broke this story and the statement they gave to them was the text watermarking method we're developing is technically promising, but as important risks we're weighing while we research alternatives, we believe the deliberate approach we've taken is necessary given the complexities involved and its likely impact on the broader ecosystem. beyond open AI.

That is what they said. The Journal sort of made an alternate case, which is that if you can't use ChatGPT to cheat on your homework, you will stop paying the company $20 a month.

We did learn about Sam Altman's investment empire this year, thanks to some reporting in the Wall Street Journal. And they really dug into all of the stakes that he has in many startups and found that he controls at least $2.8 billion worth of holdings.
