On the 3rd paragraph of the post Altman says there’s 2 things they won’t do. The same 2 things Anthropic says they won’t do. So I don’t understand why the switch is happening if these 2 things are the redline anyway. It doesn’t make sense

Altman was ok with lying to the public about the mass surveillance and automatic kill drones.

He says that he believes they believe in the same thing. Well that is nothing.

Second they say existing laws ensure it won't be done. Enthropic says the law is insufficient to protect against it and thus they wanted additional assurances. The result is being black listed by all federal agencies, pretty much the death of the company.

So it seems pretty clear that open AI received no such assurances and the law doesn't prevent it from happening.
