At @OpenAI, we believe that AI can accelerate science and drug discovery. An exciting example is our work with @RetroBiosciences, where a custom model designed improved variants of the Nobel-prize winning Yamanaka proteins. Today we published a closer look at the breakthrough. ⬇️

I deeply regret my participation in the board's actions. I never intended to harm OpenAI. I love everything we've built together and I will do everything I can to reunite the company.

Disappointing to see the incentives for the grok team to cheat and deceive in evals. Tl;dr o3-mini is better in every eval compared to grok 3. Grok 3 is genuinely a decent model, but no need to over sell.

once see this you can’t unsee it: the light-blue shading that puts grok-3 over o3-mini is cons@64

This all happened after midnight, during a company wide holiday. Support was always near unanimous.

We just released new embeddings at a ridiculously low price! For $40 one can embed all Joe Rogan podcast's transcripts (100k pages of text!) - who will go viral by building a semantic search for it? This is better, and 150x cheaper than previous models!

Some more napkin math - size of the Internet is ~10^11 pages of text*, this would cost (only?) $50M to embed. Who wants to take on Google?

We just open sourced an incredible speech recognition model. It's generally better than me, and works incredibly robustly across background noise, accents and language mixtures, which is really exciting! Let's use it everywhere!

Replying to @BenjaminDEKR
Surely expressing an opinion on the performance of an unreleased model which you only had access to through working at xAI is against company policies (?)

Wow, who would’ve thought vision problems would be solved by default through simple scaling

I am on an H-1B, in the process of getting my green card and relocating my family to the US. Me and many other colleagues in a similar situation have signed this letter. I do not know what will happen next, but I am confident we will be taken care of. the board should resign.
