Sam Altman Responds to Anthropic Super Bowl Criticism

. @sama responds to Anthropic's Super Bowl ads: "Well it's just wrong. We respect our users. We understand that if we did something like what those ads depict, people would rightfully stop using the product." "Our first principle with ads is that we're not going to put stuff into the LLM stream. That would feel crazy dystopic, like a bad sci-fi movie." "Using a deceptive ad to criticize deceptive ads feels - I don't know - something doesn't sit right with me about that." "It was well played for sure. And it was a funny ad. And the stuff about the ChatGPT personality that most annoys me - which we'll fix very soon - I thought they nailed in the ad." "I also think it's great for them not to do ads. We have a differently-shaped business. I did notice that they said in their thing like, 'We may later revise this decision and we'll explain why if so.'" "I think it's a sideshow. People are excited for a food fight between companies, but the amazing capabilities of these models, the groundswell of excitement around Codex, that feels way more important."
