The OpenAI empire - podcast
Briefly

Karen Hao's experience at OpenAI reveals a company that, contrary to its claims of transparency and collaboration, operates in secrecy. After five years of observing its evolution, she critiques OpenAI for prioritizing rapid expansion and profitability over ethical concerns affecting its workforce and environmental impact. In her book, 'Empire of AI', she draws parallels between OpenAI and historical empires, suggesting that its relentless pursuit of dominance reflects a disregard for the human and ecological costs involved.
Hao argues that OpenAI, despite its public image as a transparent non-profit, operates in a secretive manner and pursues a growth-at-all-costs model.
In 'Empire of AI', Hao portrays OpenAI's rise as reminiscent of historic empires that sacrifice ethical considerations for expansion and dominance.
