Where by "innovation" you mean "pouring endless VC money into privacy-invasive practices with no external access or oversight".

As for AI... Altman claimed that he welcomes regulation in AI space. When EU came out with a regulation which, among other things, requires companies to fully document their foundational models, he immediately said that he will not work in the EU.

So much for innovation.

Hey, let’s not forget “while totally disregarding copyright law (and code licenses)” here!

Well, Altman is CEO of a company called OpenAI, after all - it makes sense he wouldn't be in favor of transparency. Wait that doesn't make sense...
