I would be dying to know how they square these product decisions against their corporate charter internally. From the charter:
> We will actively cooperate with other research and policy institutions; we seek to create a global community working together to address AGI’s global challenges.
> We are committed to providing public goods that help society navigate the path to AGI. Today this includes publishing most of our AI research, but we expect that safety and security concerns will reduce our traditional publishing in the future, while increasing the importance of sharing safety, policy, and standards research.
It's obvious to everyone in the room what they actually are, because their largest competitor actually does what they say their mission is here -- but most for-profit capitalist enterprises definitely do not have stuff like this in their mission statement.
I'm not even mad or sad, the ship sailed long ago. I just really want to know what things are like in there. If you're the manager who is making this decision, what mental gymnastics are you doing to justify this to yourself and your colleagues? Is there any resistance left on the inside or did they all leave with Ilya?
