GPT-5.6 13 days ago

The way they talk about cyber security fixes makes clear that they are in bed with the government in order to get ahead of Anthropic.

Oh gosh. I was watching the video and thought it is a live stream. I just noticed when it restarted.

Some advantages this gives OpenAI:

- Altman takes away Musk's power as Trump's favourite tech friend.

- the government won't punish OpenAI too hard, because it makes money when OpenAI does well.

- the government can look at the user's data without any problems.

- OpenAI's competitors are forced to give the government a share in their companies too.

- when OpenAI sells shares to the public, investors will trust it more because the government is involved.

- every American could get a yearly check from OpenAI's profits, so voters will protect OpenAI.

- Sam Altman becomes friends with politicians from all sides, so nobody dares to investigate him.

The US government is clearly not interested in security of the models - otherwise they would not have only frozen the latest model (that is only a bit better than the previous), but all - and not only for US citizens, but for all people.

Given what's happening in the US, I suspect Musk is trying to slow down both companies and damage their funding. His goal is pretty obviously to get an advantage over Anthropic and OpenAI.

I just hope there's huge protest. I hope people just cancel the subscription. I fear people will just accept the terms. The result will be a kill switch for the US government and a clean distinction between national and foreign users so spying will become legal. Surely Anthropic hasn't allowed the NSA connect so far, - openai clearly did (see their board members).

If you've ever used Cursor, login, make sure privacy setting is on and contact them to say you want all your data deleted if there is some stored. Then delete your account.

I'm very suspicious as they sent out an "We're updating our Privacy Policy" email right before the launch. I fear they try to take advantage of their market position by doing things with user data no other company could do because they know users don't have another choice.
