He thought OpenAI was going to fail. He wanted total control to sort of turn it around. We wanted to keep going in the direction that now has become OpenAI. He also wanted Tesla to be able to build an AGI effort. Various times he wanted to make OpenAI into a for-profit company that he could have control of or have it merge with Tesla.

My memory is the proposal was just like, yeah, get acquired by Tesla and have Tesla have full control over it.

I would definitely pick a different—speaking of going back with an Oracle, I'd pick a different name— One of the things that I think OpenAI is doing that is the most important of everything that we're doing is putting powerful technology in the hands of people for free as a public good. We don't run ads on our free version. We don't monetize it in other ways. We just say it's part of our mission.

We want to put increasingly powerful tools in the hands of people for free and get them to use them. And I think... That kind of open is really important to our mission.

That's a big deal.

So if we can keep putting like free or low cost or free and low cost powerful AI tools out in the world, I think it's a huge deal for how we fulfill the mission. Yeah. Open source or not, yeah, I think we should open source some stuff and not other stuff. It does become this religious battle line where nuance is hard to have, but I think nuance is the right answer.
