Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen Snailwang for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com December 6 news, OpenAI founder and CEO Sam Altman (Sam Altman) said at an AI event in Vietnam today that OpenAI is reconsidering its for-profit and non-profit mixed structure.

He said there were "clearly some flaws" in the company's structure and that the new board was seriously considering the best structure in line with its purpose. He declined to comment on the previously rumored Super Intelligence Q* (CTOnews.com Note: pronounced Q-Star).

Tuyuan Pixabay earlier quoted two people familiar with the matter as saying that before OpenAI ousted Altman, several researchers had sent a letter to the board warning that a breakthrough in its artificial intelligence technology had been found to be a threat to humans.

OpenAI's progress on the project, called Q *, is said to have led some company insiders to believe that this may be a breakthrough in finding "super intelligence" (AGI, as OpenAI calls it, defined as a "AI system that is smarter than humans").

Smith, president of Microsoft, later denied the claims, saying: "I don't think it's true at all. I think it's obviously a disagreement between the board and others, but it's not based on such concerns."

"in the next 12 months, there will be absolutely no so-called AGI, in which computers are more powerful than humans," Smith said. "it will take years, even decades, but I still think we should focus on security now."
