To me it feels like everything about OpenAI's media strategy is calculated and specifically designed to maximize good PR with the public. It leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

It's very weird to me that a team of researchers who are credibly doing good work and are making an effort to clearly explain their research garners such suspicion.

Are you similarly skeptical of Deepmind, Distill, or Two Minute Papers?

Honestly, the norm of providing two versions of your research (arxiv and blog post) makes ML easier to follow and is something I would like more academics to attempt
