Yeah, I mean, in the end, it did seem to me that you'd been pretty intimidated and shaken by this.
I mean, you put out this statement on Twitter, right, where it kind of looked like you were letting them off the hook a little bit.
So you said things like...
It's reasonable that OpenAI was worried about collusion.
You said OpenAI wants to be a force for good, that its success is critical for US dominance.
It's criticized disproportionately.
Looking at all of these things, I mean, it seems like you were pretty intimidated in this moment.
It kind of reads as though you were sort of trying to appease them.
I'm curious why you didn't put more pressure on them in this moment.
Yeah, yeah.
So it's interesting actually, right?
So since all of this went down, in fact, there are some signs, at least to an outside observer, that OpenAI's attitudes towards regulation is maybe shifting.
So they've backed this safety bill in Illinois, which includes third-party audits.
That's something that they opposed at the time of SB53.
They also recently called for an international AI governance body.
I'm really curious what you make of this and how your relationship with OpenAI is now shifting.
Now, I believe that AI regulation is now like one of the most heavily funded single issues in American politics.
You've got the super PAC leading the future, which is pretty anti-regulation.
And it's raised $125 million for the midterms this year.
It's the biggest spender in this year's midterms, I believe.
