“In our chart, OpenAI Charter, we define it as a computer system, basically, that is able to perform autonomously the majority of intellectual work.”

Murati: Scaling RLHF alone might be sufficient to solve AI hallucinations
“And we also wanted to figure out the issue of hallucinations, which is always an extremely hard problem. But I do think that with this method of tree enforcement learning with human feedback, maybe that is all we need if we push this hard enough.”
Murati: AGI will be the most important technology humanity builds
“There's not going to be a more important technology that we all build than AGI.”
Murati: OpenAI had already trained GPT-4 before releasing ChatGPT
“One thing that people forget is that actually at this time we had already trained GPT-IV. And so internally at OpenAI, we were very excited about GPT-IV and sort of Put Chagipiti in the rearview mirror.”
Murati: Developing AGI in a lab vacuum without user feedback is impossible
“It would not be possible to just, you know, sit in a lab and develop this thing in a vacuum without feedback from users from the real world.”
Murati: No evidence that scaling compute and data is slowing AI progress
“So there isn't any evidence that we will not get much better, much more capable models as we continue to scale them across the axis of data and compute.”
Murati: Reaching AGI will likely require breakthroughs beyond pure model scaling
“Whether that takes you all the way to AGI or not, that's a different question. There are probably some other breakthroughs and advancements needed along the way, but I think there's still a long way to go in In the scaling laws and to really gather a lot of be…”
