OpenAI is partnering with the DoD
rewording: if openai thought it was dangerous, they would avoid having the DoD use it
Many non-sequiturs

They could just be recognizing that if not everybody is prioritizing safety, they might as well try to get AGI first
If the risk is extinction as these people claim, that'd be a short sighted business move.
Or perhaps a "calculated risk with potential huge return on investment"...
We might want to kick out guys who only talk about safety or ethics and barely contribute the project.

What makes you think that? I sounds reasonable that a dangerous tool/substance/technology might be profitable and thus the profits justify the danger. See all the companies polluting the planet and risking the future of humanity RIGHT NOW. All the weapon companies developing their weapons to make them more lethal.
Large Language Models aren't alive and thinking. This is an artificial fear campaign to raise money from VCs and sovereign wealth funds.
If OpenAI was so afraid of AI misuse, they wouldn't be firing their safety team and partnering with the DoD.
It's all a ruse.
