Snowden warns against using OpenAI and its products
Snowden commented on the recent news that OpenAI spearheaded by Sam Altman has appointed a retired US Army general and former head of NSA Paul Nakasone to the board of directors. This general led the National Security Agency between 2018 and 2023. The tweet of the @MarioNawfal user which Snowden quoted says that Paul Nakasone “ill help improve AI’s role in cybersecurity by detecting and responding to threats quickly.” The appointment of the former NSA boss was announced following rising concers about safety culture at OpenAI.
This news was taken by @MarioNawfal from Verge.
Edward Snowden tweeted that OpenAI has “gone full mask-off.” He made a critical warning to his followers “do not ever trust OpenAI or its products (#chatgpt etc).”
Snowden believes that there is the only real reaso for appointing a former head of NSA - “This is a willful, calculated betrayal of the rights of every person on Earth.” “You have been warned,” he added.
Elon Musk issues negative comment
Tech mogul #ElonMusk. , founder of the xAI startup, who opposes Sam Altman and the “woke” direction taken by OpenAI while making its products, has commented on this news too, stating: “Can’t wait for OpenAI to have access to my phone.”
Earlier this week, Musk spread the word that OpenAI had arranged a collaboration with Apple for ChatGPT to be integrated into all Apple’s devices. Musk stated that in this case he would ban all Apple devices from all of his companies. His concern is that OpenAI will have access to user data and it will copy it to its servers for further unsolicited use.
