My bet is on Google or Anthropic filling the void. This space is moving fast and Altman’s new devision will already be several years behind.
Except Bard sucks and was notably inferior to ChatGPT. Altman brought over a huge chunk of OpenAI employees, it isn't like they're starting over completely from scratch.
They won't be starting over at all since MS has access to the source code and IP according to this article: https://stratechery.com/2023/openais-misalignment-and-microsofts-gain/
Wow, that article was extremely insightful, thanks for linking that. With all of that context, I am suddenly feeling a lot more uneasy about all of this. Microsoft is essentially taking over OpenAI without having to take it over, pretty freaking wild. Additionally, without OpenAI's safety teams providing direct oversight on their tech, one can only hope that Microsoft's AGI progress is slow enough so that regulators get off their asses and get some safety barrier laws in place.
