Why OpenAI’s Personality Team Merge Actually Makes Sense

I was reading up on this change at OpenAI and thought actually, it kind of makes sense. The Model Behavior team, which shaped ChatGPT tone, is now part of Post-Training, under Max Schwarzer. That means personality is being baked into the model from the ground up.

Why does that matter? Well, it means every tweak they make to how the AI thinks can also consider how it sounds. So warmth, clarity, bias it's all getting fine-tuned together, not after the fact.

And Joanne Jang who’s been behind all that has moved on to start OAI Labs. She wants to go beyond the “chatbot” and invent new ways we team up with AI to create, learn, and just... collaborate.

Feels like OpenAI is saying: “Yeah, personality isn’t fluff. It's the core.” Makes me wonder what our future  AI buddy might look like more intuitively? Smarter? Just more us?

101 Things You Should Know About the UK Tory Government

Thing 20

“Chancellor Rishi Sunak calls on firms to “think very carefully” about any investments that would in any way support the barbaric Putin regime.... I am urging firms to think very carefully about their investments in Russia and how they may aid the Putin regime – and I am also clear that there is no case for new investment in Russia.” (GOV.UK 13/03/22)

No case for “new investment" but Sunak's wife is reportedly still profiting from her old investments in Russia. The Indian IT services company Infosys is still operating inside Russia despite saying eight months ago it was pulling out. Sunak’s wife, Akshata Murty, has a stake in the company (which is owned by her father) from which she receives multimillion-pound annual dividends.

“The company that pays Akshata Murthy, wife of British PM Rishi Sunak, £11.5 million a year is still operating in Russia, report says.”  (msn.com: 05/11/22)

Angela Rayner had this to say about Sunak’s double standards:

“The prime minister’s tough talk on sanctions on Putin is compromised by his private conflicts of interest. When he was chancellor Rishi Sunak ordered UK businesses to reconsider any investments that would in any sense support Putin and his regime but he’s utterly failed to get his own house in order.” (Guardian: 04/11/22)

As usual, it’s one rule for the rich and another for the rest of us.
