No reason to, here is an AI generated Summary (thanks Kagi):

- OpenAI recently changed its core values from ones focused on thoughtfulness, impact, collaboration to ones focused on artificial general intelligence and scale.

- The new core values were changed without explanation and raise questions about how core they truly were.

- The top new core value is an "AGI focus" but OpenAI's definition of AGI has shifted from superhuman to average human-level intelligence.

- OpenAI was originally founded to build beneficial AI but has shifted to a for-profit model, which led to co-founder Elon Musk's departure.

- The company now describes itself as focused on building safe and beneficial AGI.

- OpenAI's goals and self-descriptions have changed over time along with its shifting business model and leadership changes.

- Questions remain around what exactly OpenAI means by AGI and its commitment to ensuring AI safety.

- The new core values list comes across as vague marketing language.

- OpenAI's focus now appears to be primarily on developing general artificial intelligence for commercial purposes.

- The article raises concerns about OpenAI's lack of transparency and consistency in its stated goals and values over time.
