Lol. It's kind of the opposite. That is what the coup attempt was about. Ilya saw GPT-4o (which when they started training it was probably going to be called GPT-5) in October or whenever and declared Mission Accomplished.

But that would have basically meant the company was wrapped up and the model was given away or sent to a working group to study in private or something.

Which would not be compatible with making money.

This is also why they did not demonstrate or even mention for one second the text-to-image capabilities of the latest model during the demo. Because it makes it too obvious that the model is truly general purpose and capable.

This is also why Altman made a big deal about it being free (to some degree) and explains the recent "feeling the AGI" photo on X/Twitter.

It also goes into the Morgan Chu lawsuit that is still going forward as far as I know. And you guys will see in the movie that comes out in a couple of years that my explanation was right.

Also, don't be surprised if they get Gal Gadot to play Murati.

There is no way GPT-4o is anywhere near good enough for Ilya to want to call mission accomplished for the AGI goal on it.
