Sam is not pitching special chips for OpenAI here, right?
I do not read safety goals into this project, which sounds more like it’s “make there be many more fabs distributed around the world for more chips and decreased centralization”. (Which, fwiw, erodes options for containing specialized chips.)
Wouldn’t Sam selling large amounts of chips to OAI’s direct competitors constitute a conflict of interest? It also doesn’t seem like something he would want to do, since he seems very devoted to OAI’s success, for better or worse. Why would he want to increase decentralization?
