Clickbait title, they fired contractors for using AI to label data, which defeats the purpose of labeling data in this case.

I did this type of work for a while when I was between jobs earlier this year. Using Ai to write the evaluations was immediate criteria for being removed from the project. Seems obvious

There's data in verifiable domains where a model can learn through the environment (e.g., math or coding), but some data is necessarily human experience. For instance, "what is the best ice cream in Malaga?" no matter how capable current AIs are they are not capable to get this information, there's no embodiment or simulation of human experience so far, if it's not in the labeled data they will just hallucinate the answer.

Makes sense, they are buying distillation of human brains not their own weights.

Typically, for AI training, you need human feedback. If AI were enough, then OpenAI would do it themselves. Though we all know how bad AI slop is, running it in a loop can lead to unreadable sentences.

They hired contractors on the condition that they provide human feedback without AI; those people broke the rules, so their contracts ended prematurely.

Not sure why this is news uncovered by an investigative journalist.

yo dawg

So OpenAI is not a believer in recursive self-improvement after all?

Bubble bursting behavior in action - AI company that pushes everyone to use AI, replace everything and everyone with AI, fires people for using AI to make the AI.

The more you think about it, the worse it gets.
