Sam Altman has already made the rounds to argue for exactly this. Fucking crook.
>It's pretty blatantly obvious that all of the hand-wringing over AI safety was an excuse for their pivot into closing off and monetizing everything.
The playbook was "appease one side of the political aisle as much as possible to minimize the chance bipartisan action gets them shut down Napster-style" (which is still a massive hole in their business model, for obvious reasons I should hope).
Censoring the model so it only outputs progressive-approved content appears to have been effective, at least for the moment.
