Glad to see someone is looking out for a forest, here. A diverse host of excuses have cropped up to explain away the anxiety AGI brings, and I totally understand why. Yet again, today we stare into the abyss.

  Sora 2 represents significant progress towards [AGI]. In keeping with OpenAI’s mission, it is important that humanity benefits from these models as they are developed.

This seems like a good time to remind ourselves of the original OpenAI charter: https://web.archive.org/web/20230714043611/https://openai.co...

I wonder how exactly they reconcile the quote above with "We are concerned about late-stage AGI development becoming a competitive race without time for adequate safety precautions"...
