Interesting. Out of curiosity, how long do you think OpenAI can survive as a company? Put another way, what would be your guesses for probability of failure on 1yr, 3yr, and 5yr horizons?

EDIT: possibly a corollary--does Mia pay money for chatgpt or use a free plan?

As an engineer I can't comment on future company predictions. It sounds like a question for Sam Altman, as he has discussed risks in the past.

My wife was paying for ChatGPT before I joined. I didn't ask Mia. I probably have three months of hair growth before my next chance to ask.

'Before you joined' seems to that she doesn't anymore.

I find it a little amusing that AI companies provide free AI subscriptions to their employees and their families. Perhaps because I'd never thought of it that way.

That's kinda nice actually; I assume employees get early access to models to test (5.3 codex, for example). Do families get it too?
