Now that we are finally getting mass confirmation about how OpenAI in fact, has signed a deal which allows DoD to be allowed having autonomous killing machines and people are boycotting OpenAI and all of this has reached the mainstream news.

Yes, even after Sam Altman's recent tweet which says that its gonna add more terms, that is debunked because those terms are just gonna say what OpenAI prefers DoD just in more stronger terms to do but in no ways are still enforcable. Right now, the way it is with current Deal. DoD could create autonomous killing weapons and mass surveillance with Directives issued by Pete Hegseth/Current Administration and OpenAI by the terms is allowed to agree to it.

To all the OpenAI employees who have signed notdivided.org petition (I am seeing 98 signatories), what are you guys gonna do?

> They're trying to divide each company with fear that the other will give in. That strategy only works if none of us know where the others stand. This letter serves to create shared understanding and solidarity in the face of this pressure from the Department of War.

Are you guys gonna stand for what you think is right. This question was asked by people when the OpenAI deal was announced but the optics at the time weren't clear. But now that some time has been given and people are absolutely clear that the deal that OpenAI have signed absolutely allows the use of creating of autonomous weapons

I don't think that OpenAI employees are gonna have a struggle of Money as some people try to point out. I mean, any AI company would be lucky to have you guys (imo) and they should be able to fairly match even OpenAI comp.

Someone from what I read (on HN), compared it to the fact that anyone who stays after 1 month from this happening will show the morals of the given situation.

I remember the fact that OpenAI used to be actually non profit and how employees left OpenAI because the non-profit actually fired Sam Altman.

I can't help but wonder if the board was right. I think the answer's yes. But my question is, OpenAI employees do have massive powers. I am sure that a lot of the people there would be better off sleeping that their work isn't contributing to building torment nexus.

I wish to propose that if OpenAI employees band together again, they can be able to do the same thing that they did previously, but now to revert that decision.

That is if I were an openAI employee, I gave a thought and here are all the things that I find are troubling which can be reverted:

1. Shut down the deal that they have with DoD period.

2. Actually shift from ClosedAI to OpenAI (Turn to a non profit structure as intentioned) and fire sam altman.

3. If something could be done about ramflation. I have seen projects being cancelled and Hosting providers shutting down or increasing prices because of 5x price increases, all because OpenAI tried to commit 20% of the world's entire Ram production.
