Many of the OpenAI employees who were focused on these risks in GPT-2 later founded Anthropic, notably Dario [1]. Since the beginning and continuing through today Anthropic describes itself as an "AI safety and research company" [2]
I'm not sure if the OpenAI of today has the same focus on safety, or if they do the minimum to not look irresponsible given Anthropic's effort.
It's clear that the parent didn't bother to read the link they shared, which articulates exactly this. That's embarrassing.
From the link:
> They summarized their findings from the nine months:
> 1. Humans find GPT-2 outputs convincing.
> 2. GPT-2 can be fine-tuned for misuse.
> 3. Detection is challenging (detection rates of ~95% for detecting 1.5B GPT-2-generated text by RoBERTa).
> We’ve seen no strong evidence of misuse so far.
> We need standards for studying bias.
