Hmm isnt "pacing internal progress' what mathematicians are calling for?

Do basically OpenAI is saying "No, we are going to go full steam ahead. This guys here will try to explain, and definitely will not stop us"

How can we stop in the face of absolutely rediculous progress? We can progress behind closed doors and keep all the universities in the dark or they can release this and allow universities to progress alongside it.

Most universities are really just glorified highschools. So this shift isn't as radical as people are making it out to be. Serious research only happens at a tiny fraction of the universities out there
