      It’s not a nothing burger in the sense that this signals a distinct change at OpenAI’s new direction following the realignment of the board. Of course AI has been in military applications for a good while, that’s not news at all. I think the bigger message is that the supposed altruistic direction of OpenAI was either never a thing or never will be again.

      The military has had Ai and Microsoft contracts but the military guys themselves suck massive balls at making good stuff. They only make expensive stuff.

      Remember the “best defense in the world with super Ai camera tracking” being wrecked by a thousand dudes with AK’s three months ago
