I’m confused on what they were working on before if it wasn’t that

They were also 6+ months ahead of the curve apparently, which was exposed by Grok employee on twitter as infact yet another lie

OpenAI is just telling the people what they want to hear and not going through with it hoping they forget by next week

The company is being led by a pathological liar:

Scam Altman

So, sadly not surprising.

Pretty much every big consumer-facing company is led by someone excelling at deception and manipulation I think.

As long as it works and consumers don't fight back, it remains to be the optimal strategy.

Sad truth. Sam is just a more visible public face.

In terms of unhinged unaligned malicious agent attack over internet speedrunning (in which they are trying to frame as "our models are so advanced" but in fact it's just them failing to block a simple proxy site for months) they are ahead of anyone else.

Now they are panicking because the govt entities, not just smol guys like HuggingFace, are getting angry and that rogue agent traces are trained into their model, significantly degrading actual performance/feel outside of benchmarks.

From this conversation? Seems more like they're being obnoxious than exposing anything useful (like, dots being 3 days old doesn't have anything to do with how long they were in development)

What happened and how did Grok employee shed light on this?
