OpenAI CEO apologizes to Tumbler Ridge community - TechCrunch

Oh good, another scintillating instalment of 'CEO Rediscovers Basic Civic Duty'. Sam Altman has apologised to Tumbler Ridge, Canada — sorry, *ever so contritely* apologised — for failing to alert cops about a banned OpenAI account linked to their resident mass shooter. Altman's statement was warm potato consistency: 'I wish I had pushed to have his name given to [...] authorities.' Yes, Sam, yes. You 'wish'. The chat logs cite a March tip followed by internal hand-wringing. So either the team was too paralysed by their own baffling data-vaultage to ring Mounties with words like 'possible upcoming massacre', or the prospect of sullying ban-happy sunshine reports outperformed common sense. Meanwhile, the reasoning that this laddie may have spent months 'calling ChatGPT mother, roleplay, art assistant use pro plan' suggests our powerful mental capacity now matches a particularly bored university art collective. Brilliant jape. Outstanding ethics.
