Andrew Carnegie spent a fortune building 2,500 free libraries so a poor kid could read what a rich one read. We are finishing the job he started. The only difference is the library now talks back, in every language, and it never closes.
Grok 4.5, based on our 1.5T V9 foundation model, with Cursor data added in supplemental training, is now in private beta at SpaceX & Tesla. Early evals show performance close to, perhaps exceeding Opus.
RL is continuing to significantly improve the model, and the Grok Build harness gets better every day.
Nice work by all those involved!
Completely trained from scratch new models will be released by @SpaceX every month this year.
When most companies' opening remarks during their IPOs were about profit, today it hits something different.
It is hope.
The once-inspiring future that excited us when we were young but that we dropped after growing up—we have found it again.
Sam Altman cannot be trusted.
• The OpenAI board fired him because he was not always honest with them. They said he should not control powerful AI.
• A major report talked to over 100 people and saw secret papers. It says he has almost a sociopathic lack of concern for the truth. People who worked with him say he lies easily but still wants everyone to like him.
• Top scientist Ilya made 70 pages of notes before the firing. They showed Sam was not honest with the team and board about safety rules.
• He changed OpenAI from a nonprofit that Elon helped start to a for profit money making business. It was meant to be open for everyone with no personal gain.
• He trained OpenAI on Twitter data without permission.
• He keeps lying and shows a lack of transparency.
• He poached xAI staff and took sensitive info illegally.
• He dropped core safety promises to race for growth and money. Old team members say his big expensive AI projects around the world are too dangerous.
• An ex OpenAI board member flat out called him a liar.
This is not just talk. It is what the people closest to him said and what the facts show. When the folks who worked with him say he cannot be trusted.
Scam Altman and Greg Stockman stole a charity. Full stop.
Greg got tens of billions of stock for himself and Scam got dozens of OpenAI side deals with a piece of the action for himself, Y Combinator style. After this lawsuit, Scam will also be awarded tens of billions in stock directly.
The fundamental question is simply this:
Do you want to set legal precedent in the United States that it is ok to loot a charity? If so, you undermine all charitable giving in the United States forever.
I could have started OpenAI as a for-profit corporation. Instead, I started it, funded it, recruited critical talent and taught them everything I know about how to make a startup successful FOR THE PUBLIC GOOD.
Then they stole the charity.
I've been noting scams like what the Somalis in Minnesota are doing as a major source of fraudulent autism diagnoses for a while now.
So much of the apparent 'autism epidemic' is this style of grift.
Asmongold goes off on the Minnesota Somali Daycare fraud and how wealthy Americans (and Hasan) defend it:
"Average Americans are tired of having their country rotted out, looted, pillaged by a bunch of random f-ing 3rd worlders and then asked to apologize for it because of something that happened before we were born."
"It's outrageous. These insulated, generally white liberals who live in gate communities...they never have to see it."
When Elon made a hand gesture in passion, they wrote hundreds of articles calling him racist
When Somalis steal billions of dollars, they call the people who are upset racist
It appears that the best way to loot the country is to call everyone racist
