It's possible that both companies are behind schedule on actually building out data centers (since they are relying on the same companies to actually build the things).

Another possibility is that they are finding the next level of increasing the context window didn't actually give much of an improvement in output quality.

it's unlikely they are "slowing down" because of safety concerns. If they were concerned about safety, they would have been creating a safety framework (legislative, infrastructure, or code framework) for keeping these things safe. They wouldn't have suddenly started slowing down, that makes no sense. It dioes nothing to mske current models safer (and Sam Altman and Elon Musk definitely wouldn't call for a slowdown).

The strait is open because a lot of oil is getting through. It's hard to know exactly how much oil is getting through the strait for a lot of reasons. Anyone who claims to know the exact number is lying: https://www.reuters.com/busine...

But all analysts agree an increasing amount of oil is getting through. Iran has sent wave after wave of drones and missiles at ships in the strait, and almost all of it has been intercepted. Iran has moved to targeting ships farther and farther outside the strait, in hopes that doing so will be easier.

The next step is to get rid of Iran's missiles. They seem to be assembling new ones in their deep mountain tunnels, so destroying them will likely require some kind of land invasion (like paratroopers https://taskandpurpose.com/new... ). The Iranian government seems to think that the latest IAEA meetings at the UN were merely legal cover for an invasion (which isn't how Americans normally operate, Americans would see the legal proceedings as a chance to come into compliance before dying).

Now come on, it's quite a unique definition of intelligence, worthy of consideration.

Consider that, by the definition of "intelligence is the capability to do a lot of harm and good," Even Trump might be considered intelligent. No one else has been able to write a definition that achieves that.

OpenAI's revenue is growing quickly, so it's not unreasonable that they will eventually be profitable. Uber was in the same situation, it's a common model for startups.

Will they succeed in being profitable, or will something like local AI agents ruin everything for them? That is harder to know. If you can answer that kind of question with good timing, you can make a lot of money on the stock market. Their ad revenue is growing. If they can convince large corporations to habitually use AI to write emails, and use AI to summarize those emails for the recipient that's probably a waste of time and money, but it will be money that goes to OpenAI, which will be more revenue.
