I'll grant that it was a nitpick and they describe an ethics.

But I don't think I'm alone in being awfully tired of tech companies that talk about the benefit of all then sell our personal data or make military robots or manipulate our news. Where's the meat behind these promises and where's the accountability for not avoiding uses of AI that harm humanity?

Tech companies often find that profit incentives undermine the good intentions they started with. Fortunately, OpenAI is a nonprofit organization; it has no personal data to sell and no shady contracting jobs to turn away. That certainly doesn't fully immunize them from wrongdoing, but it should make it easier.
