I personally don’t trust Snowden. Looking at the difference between how he was treated and how Assange was treated. One guy gets to rot in prison, other guy gets movies made about him from Hollywood. Snowden is very much controlled opposition in my mind.

But that being said, I think he is truthful about OpenAI. Which sucks, because now I and many others love using chat gpt.

It’s possible to self host these things though. I read an article about it here:

But probably not worth the money for most people.

    Here’s the content in case anyone is blocking/avoiding X:

    OpenAI has appointed Paul M. Nakasone, retired US Army general and former NSA head, to its board of directors.

    Nakasone, who led the NSA from 2018 to 2023, will join OpenAI’s Safety and Security Committee.

    He will help improve AI’s role in cybersecurity by detecting and responding to threats quickly.

    His appointment follows concerns over safety culture at OpenAI.

    They’ve gone full mask-off: 𝐝𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 trust @OpenAI or its products (ChatGPT etc). There is only one reason for appointing an @NSAGov Director to your board. This is a willful, calculated betrayal of the rights of every person on Earth. You have been warned.

    The source is probably this article.
